Tory leadership contender most popular with public revealed in poll
By Alexandra Rogers, political reporter
Tom Tugendhat has emerged as the leadership contender who is most popular with the public, according to a new Savanta poll shared with Sky News.
The former security minister, who ran for the leadership after Boris Johnson's tenure, has a net favourability of -3, compared with -28 for Priti Patel, the former home secretary who scored the lowest rating with the public.
Mr Tugendhat is also highly regarded among the moderate One Nation group of Tory MPs.
James Cleverly, the former home secretary who declared his intention to run on Tuesday, is just behind Mr Tugendhat with a net favourability of -9.
And Kemi Badenoch, the shadow housing secretary and former business secretary who is seen as a frontrunner on the right, scored a rating of -12, while former home secretary Suella Braverman was given a rating of -23 among the public.
The poll comes as nominations for the leadership race open on Wednesday at 7pm, with Rishi Sunak's replacement as Conservative leader announced on 2 November.

Cabinet Office takes over EU relations
A change in what different departments do in government is common when a new administration takes over.
And it's no different with Labour and Sir Keir Starmer.
Perhaps the most interesting change is that the UK's dealings with the EU will now be handled by the Cabinet Office, rather than the Foreign Office.
Nick Thomas-Symonds, the Europe minister, will be working out of the department at 70 Whitehall, which adjoins Downing Street.
Moving the issue closer to Downing Street matches Sir Keir's ambition for the UK and EU to work closer together.
Other changes being made to the machinery of government include: Veterans affairs moving from the Cabinet Office to the Ministry of Defence; Government Digital Services moving from the Cabinet Office to the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology; and the Government Car Service moving from the Department for Transport to Cabinet Office.
In a written statement to the House of Commons, Sir Keir said these changes would happen immediately.
Analysis: Starmer's warning to new MPs
By Jon Craig, chief political correspondent
Has Sir Keir Starmer overreacted by suspending seven Labour MPs who rebelled and voted to scrap the two-child benefit cap? Not according to the Labour leader's inner circle, obviously.
But many Labour MPs - and not just the left-wing "usual suspects" - were stunned at his response.

'Workmanlike' PMQs for Starmer's first outing as he 'bludgeons' Tories
Our deputy political editor Sam Coates says it was a "solid rather than exuberant event" for Sir Keir Starmer's first PMQs in charge.
But he says the "serious and workmanlike" tone was actually set by his predecessor.
Rishi Sunak "chose not to go on issues of greater partisan disagreement, but instead to focus on areas of agreement", adds Sam, noting how the Tory leader repeatedly praised Sir Keir's support for him over Ukraine when he was in Number 10.
He says the now "interim leader" - until the Conservatives choose a new boss in November - perhaps doesn't want to "engage in some of the more fiery approaches" and was "maybe leaving that to leadership contenders".
He also says we learned about how Sir Keir will do PMQs, namely "bludgeoning" the opposition with how the state of the public finances is "so much worse than we were expecting".
Sam says that that argument "is going to be at the heart of the debate" going forward - especially if Labour wants to do something like raise taxes.
PM took every chance he could to blame his predecessor
By Gurpreet Narwan, political correspondent
Rishi Sunak's questions may have been soft but other MPs were rearing to go.
Sir Ed Davey, the leader of the Liberal Democrats, asked about the challenges facing family carers who have gone over the carers’ allowance threshold.
The prime minister said: "We have a more severe crisis than we thought as we go through the books of the last 14 years."
When grilled on illegal immigration, he accused the Tories of losing control of the country's borders.
As expected, Sir Keir Starmer found an opportunity to attack the previous government, saying the new government had found crisis and failure everywhere.
The chancellor has asked the Treasury to review state spending under the Conservatives, all of which is pitch rolling for difficult tax and spending decisions that are coming down the line.
For now, the new government can get away with blaming its predecessor - but it will not last.
Starmer's advice to the Tories
As PMQs wraps up, Sir Keir Starmer has a message for the Conservative benches.
Responding to a final question from Tory MP Sir Roger Gale about planning reforms, the prime minister says the government needs to improve economic growth for the country.
"We have a housing crisis where the dream of home ownership for young people is simply gone under the previous government," he says.
He then says he is "not going to listen" to the Conservatives.
"They put their case to the electorate. The electorate rejected them profoundly," he adds.
"My advice is when you get rejected that profoundly by the electorate, it's best not to go back to the electorate and tell them they were wrong.
"It is best to reflect and change your approach and change your party."
That's a wrap on Sir Keir Starmer's first PMQs - scroll down to catch up on all the key moments.
Labour to 'roll up sleeves' to tackle violence against women and girls
As we approach the end of PMQs, the issue of violence against women and girls is raised by Labour's Charlotte Nichols.
"Sky News today published appalling accounts of sexual harassment and violence against women paramedics," she says, referring to our report.
"Can the prime minister please update the House on progress towards the mission to finally tackle this scourge in our society?" Ms Nichols asks.
Sir Keir Starmer thanks her for her question on what he says is "such a serious issue".
"We have made a commitment to the mission to halve violence against women and girls," the prime minister says.
"I know from my own experience dealing with these cases as a prosecutor and subsequently just how hard that will be to achieve.
"It does mean that we'll have to deliver in a different way - we'll have to roll up our sleeves and do difficult things that haven't been done in the past.
"And in answer to the specific question - we've started work already on the delivery board, and I look forward to updating her and the House on the progress that we're making on this really important issue."
'Show leadership' over planning, Starmer tells Greens
Co-leader of the Green Party Adrian Ramsey stands to ask his first question at PMQs and says the UK is "one of the most nature depleted [countries] on Earth".
He welcomes the "signal" from the Labour government that they care about this "existential issue", and asks for Sir Keir Starmer to show leadership on the issue.
The PM says he is "committed to nature recovery", but turns the question round to the leading Green figure.
He asks Mr Ramsey to "show some [leadership]" himself over what Sir Keir calls his "extraordinary" position to oppose "vital clean energy infrastructure in his own constituency".
The Labour leader says his government will lay down plans to build these green technologies across the country, shaking up the planning system, and he calls on the Green Party to support them.
Starmer: 'Previous government lost control of our borders'
Reform MP Rupert Lowe asks the prime minister about immigration.
He says his constituents in Great Yarmouth "have little doubt" that "uncontrolled" immigration has "damaged and disrupted their community".
He asks Sir Keir Starmer if he agrees that "importing millions of people with no thought has failed" the country.
The PM says it is the previous government "lost control of our borders" and record numbers of people have crossed the channel.
"It is a serious issue that requires a serious answer," he adds, pledging to create a border security command that "takes down the gangs that are running this vile trade".
Analysis: Labour MPs gleeful - and change in Sunak too
By Gurpreet Narwan, political correspondent
The "Leader of the Opposition, Rishi Sunak".
It will take a bit of getting used to but from the amused look on Labour MPs' faces, it's a phrase they will happily hear over and over again.
Rishi Sunak looks far more relaxed in his new role. Gone is the tense sternness we have grown accustomed to.
Instead, he made a self-deprecating joke about how Team GB should take no advice from him about winning. MPs clearly found it endearing.
The exchange that followed between the two was remarkably genteel.
Mr Sunak’s questions were focused on foreign policy, chiefly on Ukraine. He maintains that the Labour leader could rely on his full support in this area. It is a topic both leaders have consistently agreed on and it lifted the tone of the conversation in the Commons.
Much has been said about the peaceful transfer of power in the UK and, ultimately, the goodwill on both sides. Here was another example of it in action.
