Tom Tugendhat took to the stage today to deliver a speech in a bid for the leadership vote.

The Conservative MP promised to “rebuild the Conservative party” and committed to reducing net migration to below 100,000 per year.

He also called for a Thatcher-style economic revolution in his final pitch to Tory members.

He said: “Real growth, not the illusion of growth that has been boosted by migration, has barely shifted in the past 30 years. Now that’s left us poorer and more vulnerable. We need to free the economy.

“We need a new conservative revolution. That’s what Margaret Thatcher did, that’s what we need to do again and we can do it.”
