I’m backing Penny Mordaunt to be PM: a proven track across 8 Government Departments over 12 years, understands the challenges ordinary families face, knows how to beat Labour, & has shown already this week she’s more than a match for Keir Starmer. #PM4PM
The comments made by Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, on 21 October 2022.
My prayers are with Liz Truss and her family following her resignation, and I give thanks for her public service to our country. We should always be grateful to those who take on the great and difficult responsibilities of leadership.

I’m backing Rishi Sunak to be our Prime Minister. Rishi will restore public confidence in our party and market confidence in our economy.
He will unite Conservatives and lead our country with integrity, judgement and competence. #ready4rishi

To deliver for Britain we need economic credibility, experience & great communication, someone who can be trusted to look after the most vulnerable, protect livelihoods & support our NHS – Rishi Sunak has all of this & can bring the party together. #ReadyForRishi

Hoping Penny Mordaunt will once again put herself forward to lead our Party and Country. She has the qualities and qualifications. #PM4PM
The comments made by Huw Merriman, the Conservative MP for Bexhill and Battle, on Twitter on 20 October 2022.
I feel enormous sympathy for Liz Truss. I did not put a letter in for a leadership contest and hoped the change in policies would give her time to work this through. That did not happen and I send her my thanks and best wishes. I’m sorry we have not done the best for our country.
Now it’s time to unite around Rishi Sunak. We have adopted his policies. It’s now time to have him leading our country and delivering them. The economy needs a solid, experienced operator; Rishi is the leader to raise this country back to where it belongs.
The comments made by Simon Hoare, the Conservative MP for North Dorset, on Twitter on 20 October 2022.
I’m supporting Rishi Sunak to be Leader and Prime Minister. He will ensure market confidence, pragmatic policies and a steadying of the ship.
The comments made by John McDonnell, the Labour MP for Hayes and Harlington, on Twitter on 20 October 2022.
Truss was selected by 150,000 Tory Party members. We are now facing the selection of the next Prime Minister by a few hundred Conservative MPs. That cannot be right. This is meant to be a democracy. We need a general election.
The comments made by Richard Foord, the Liberal Democrat for Tiverton and Honiton, on Twitter on 20 October 2022.
We do not need another un-elected Conservative Prime Minister lurching from crisis to crisis. We need a general election, to get this rotten Government out of power and enable us to deliver the real change our communities need.
