Next UK leader of the Conservatives?
The race for the UK Conservative Party leadership has narrowed down to two final candidates: Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick. Following a surprise elimination of former Foreign Secretary James Cleverly, Badenoch secured 42 votes and Jenrick garnered 41 votes in the latest round of voting among Conservative lawmakers. The party members will now decide between these two right-leaning candidates, with the winner to be announced on November 2. Both Badenoch and Jenrick pledge to restore unity and conservative principles within the party, aiming to rebound from a significant electoral loss in July.
