Our latest Next Tory Leader survey. Stewart consolidates at second – but almost 40 points behind Johnson, who keeps over half the vote.

Before the first ballot, Boris Johnson climbed to a record personal and table high in this survey, carving out 54 per cent. He now reaches 55 per cent, but this is margin-of-error stuff. None the less, it’s another record.

Rory Stewart’s guerilla campaign sees him put on five points to consolidate his second place in the table. But he remains the best part of 40 points behind Johnson.

None of the rest are in double figures, and the changes for them are marginal. Stewart claimed last week that his place in our survey had swung more MPs behind him to double his then declared total.

Our run-offs in this survey shed further light on the candidates’ standing with Party members, and we will publish them later this morning. Meanwhile, here are the figures – and below them, some questions for today.
