Taking a break over the summer recess - back in September! https://t.co/QOj7TZwg99

Fascinating to talk to @AngelaRayner this week - about why she would fear Johnson more than Sunak or Truss, being “underestimated” her whole life, plus why she now thinks she COULD be Prime Minister You can watch it here - worth 10 mins of your time https://t.co/3S31hNlfOL

A straight answer from Angela Rayner who tells me she thinks she could be PM 👇 https://t.co/dwhwHj6nYo

And then there were two… @RishiSunak vs @trussliz A lot of fun presenting in Central Lobby today

“Yes, I think I could do it now, I think I could and I think it’s really important that kids from my background do have that aspiration” - @AngelaRayner tells me she thinks she’s got what it takes to be PM #TheTake

Rishi Sunak implies Liz Truss couldn't win a general election: "Who is the best person to beat Keir Starmer and the Labour Party at the next election? I believe I am the only candidate who can do that" https://t.co/dABsrkMW0z

It's on! @RishiSunak & @trussliz agree to a @skynews head to head debate - it will be hosted by @KayBurley on Thursday 4th August at 8pm https://t.co/h4PcMdywBo

The Tory leadership race is writing Keir Starmer's attack lines - Does the PM agree with his former Chancellor that the plans put forward by his rivals are "nothing more than the fantasy economics of unfunded spending promises?" #pmqs

Boris Johnson: "I'm not following this thing particularly closely..." ("This thing" being the race to succeed him as PM) #pmqs

Quotes from @RidgeOnSunday interviews with @DominicRaab & @tracyniks making five front pages tomorrow

“Liz Truss is open, Rishi Sunak is open, Kemi is open but the one person that I personally don't know what her big achievements are is Penny” - Liz Truss supporter Iain Duncan Smith #Ridge

“It was the Treasury that signed off on that money printing, the Chancellor no less, and so before they say ‘Oh it’s independent’ the Treasury has the right to say no to the money printing bit but they didn’t and that has fuelled inflation” - Liz Truss supporter Iain Duncan Smith https://t.co/iObQA3Illy

“This isn’t like a lovely hot day where we can put a bit of sunscreen on and go out and enjoy an ice cream and a meal outside, this is serious heat that could actually ultimately end in people’s deaths” CEO of the College of Paramedics Tracy Nicholls

“There is some common-sense practical advice we are talking about… but we ought to enjoy the sunshine” Deputy PM @DominicRaab on the heatwave #Ridge

An adrenaline fuelled two days broadcasting the results of the first Conservative leader ballots The race still feels utterly unpredictable to me, with Rishi Sunak, Penny Mordaunt & Liz Truss jostling for the final two spots A big weekend ahead before voting starts again Monday

🔥 https://t.co/M0qLNWEWI3

Half an hour to go until we get the results of the second ballot - Will Rishi Sunak, Penny Mordaunt or Liz Truss show they’re the candidate with momentum? - Will Suella Braverman or Tom Tugendgat be eliminated? (from opposite wings of the party - could influence the TV debates)

Rishi Sunak tops the first ballot on 88 votes Penny Mordaunt wins the race for second place on 67 votes to Liz Truss’ 50

Do you have a question you’d like to put to a candidate? Send them in ahead of the @SkyNews debate on Monday 18th July, hosted by @KayBurley👇 https://t.co/GBmfXsEVoq

Michael Gove backs Kemi Badenoch, Jake Berry comes out for Tom Tugendgat. It really feels like this leadership election is wide open

One in five kids grow up with a parent with a drink problem. @VickyPattison opens up about her not just Dad’s battle with alcoholism but fears for herself. Her story but one that will very relatable to many people. Watch on @skynews 9pm tonight https://t.co/8bb6ut0InK

“She speaks with an accent she must be thick” Labour Deputy Leader @AngelaRayner talks to us about the stigma she faces as a working class woman in politics 📺 It’s a fascinating interview- you can watch in full on YouTube now

“I think I could do it now.” We asked @AngelaRayner if she had what it takes to be PM. 🍻 She reckons Boris Johnson’s lowered the bar so much even “Terry from the local pub could do it”

A straight answer from Angela Rayner who tells me she thinks she could be PM 👇 https://t.co/dwhwHj6nYo

'If a posh guy from a private school walks into a room he automatically gains respect, he's got status. If I walk into a room, I've got to earn respect because people look at me differently' says Deputy Labour Leader @AngelaRayner. #TheTake: https://t.co/ZoMhCmTrtv 📺 Sky 501

@SophyRidgeSky really enjoyed the final episode of The Take just now. Informed debate. Will defo tune in for the new series in Sept. 👍👍 @SkyNews

"I think they should reseek a mandate." Deputy Labour Leader @AngelaRayner says there should be a general election and she doesn't think the Tories would get a mandate from the public again as they've "failed so spectacularly". #TheTake: https://t.co/ZoMhCmTrtv

Striking that two Rishi Sunak backers have today told @SophyRidgeSky that if the next PM wants to change policy too much, that would increase the argument for a general election … … the last thing Tory MPs and backers want

Shots fired (within minutes of final two being announced) Iain Duncan Smith, Liz Truss supporter, says that he blames the Bank of England and the Treasury under Sunak for soaring inflation He tells @SophyRidgeSky that Treasury shouldn't have signed off on the 'explosion' of QE

Starmer starts with a nice touch: "Can I start by saying to the PM that the relationship between PM and leader of opposition never easy and this no exception to the rule, but I wish him and his family all the best for the future"

Oh and there’s a leadership race theory which I hadn’t even thought of on the latest @SophyRidgeSky podcast https://t.co/idWVrVw3bF
