On Tuesday afternoon, James Cleverly got the most votes from Tory MPs in the party’s leadership contest. One day later and the next round of voting went a different way. Cleverly failed to make the final two.   Party members will now choose between Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick in a clear indication that the party will shift towards the right in the months after its election defeat.   So, what happened with Wednesday’s vote, and who will the Tory membership be most attracted to as they decide the party's new leader? Niall Paterson and our political correspondent Serena Barker-Singh discuss it all on this episode.    Producer: Soila ApparicioEditor: Paul Stanworth
