The Tories are in for a restructure after their defeat in the UK election. 

Former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has resigned as leader of the Conservative Party, saying in his speech that he has “heard your anger”. 

UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Mike Hosking that nobodies looking forward to the Conservative Leadership election, as it will “usually be a b**** fest” and remind everyone of the people who used to run them. 

He said that Kemi Badenoch is currently out in front, with a strong showing from Tom Tugendhat, and Suella Braverman. 

Liddle told him that if there was a vote tomorrow, the right would win, but historically the person at the front of a Tory Leadership contest never actually wins.
