Former minister Tom Tugendhat has announced he is running to be the next Conservative leader.

Writing in the Daily Telegraph, he said he was “not just running to be the next Conservative leader” but also to become the “next Conservative prime minister”.

He said his party had lost the last election because it “lost the trust of the British people”.

“The public wanted the things we promised: lower taxes, lower immigration, more control over their everyday lives. Those are Conservative ideas. We just didn’t deliver.

“We couldn’t deliver because we were too focused on fighting each other.”

Mr Tugendhat is the second Conservative MP to enter the contest to replace Rishi Sunak as party leader, following former Home Secretary James Cleverly’s announcement on Tuesday.

Mr Sunak announced his resignation shortly after the party fell to its heaviest ever defeat in the 4 July general election.

He will stay in the role until a replacement is picked.
