After a large starting line-up, nine eliminations, several reallocations of support and, undoubtedly, some backroom deals – the Conservative leadership race is down to two.

Former finance minister Rishi Sunak and foreign secretary Liz Truss will battle it out this summer, while Parliament is in recess, and the Conservative Party membership will elect one of them as their leader - and thus, the next UK Prime Minister.

H+K London's Sophia Franklin is joined by Tanya Joseph (MD, Corporate Affairs + Advisory) and James Drewer (MD, Corporate Affairs + Advisory) to discuss the long, hot summer ahead for the UK and its political landscape.
