Lord Hague proposes Tory MPs, not party members, select next leader after Sunak's resignation.
Former Conservative leader Lord Hague has proposed that Tory MPs, rather than the dwindling party membership, should select the next leader. This suggestion arises as the party prepares to choose a new leader following Rishi Sunak's resignation after a general election defeat. Candidates Kemi Badenoch, Robert Jenrick, James Cleverly, and Tom Tugendhat will address party members at a Birmingham conference. MPs will shortlist candidates on October 10, with results announced on November 2.
