Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick have been named the final two candidates in the Conservative leadership race as James Cleverly faced a shock elimination.
Mr Cleverly received the fewest votes in today’s contest, despite storming into the lead on Tuesday.
This means the party's members will now choose between Badenoch and Jenrick to decide the leader of the opposition.
These results will undoubtedly come as a shock after James Cleverly shot into the lead in Tuesday's vote.
The final vote numbers were:
Kemi Badenoch - 42
Robert Jenrick - 41
James Cleverly - 37
Conservative Party members now have a few weeks to decide on their preferred candidate, with the leadership results to be announced on November 2.
