Liz Truss or Rishi Sunak is set to be announced the new leader of the Conservative Party and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom next week.

It will be 55 days of Tory infighting that has shown how out of touch the party is on the main issues facing the country at such an important time.The person picked by Conservative members to become their leader might not even enjoy a majority of support among the party's own MPs.

While Rishi Sunak led his rival candidates in every round of voting among Tory MPs, it is Liz Truss who is more popular among the membership, according to polls.The election to choose a new leader of the Conservatives was open to all party members who joined on or before June 3, but the precise number who received a ballot paper is not public knowledge, because the Tories do not publish data on party membership.Nearly 140,000 votes were cast in the Tory leadership election in summer 2019, when Boris Johnson won 92,153 votes and Jeremy Hunt won 46,656, with 509 spoiled ballots.
