TONIGHT saw the two remaining contenders in the Tory leadership race go head to head in a debate on ITV.
But who won the debate, what was said about Brexit and who was the host? Here’s everything you need to know about tonight’s drama.
Although the two candidates went head to head in tonight’s debate, there was no ‘winner’.
The purpose of the debate was for Conservative Party members to see who they want to vote for as their next leader, and therefore the next Prime Minister.
Both candidates said they intend to leave the UK by October 31.
But Johnson seems more likely to push through a no deal Brexit than Hunt.
However Johnson denies there will be a “disorderly” Brexit and promises to avoid a no deal.
Hunt says it will be “very serious” if a no deal is necessary, and says he has a ten-point Brexit plan to avoid that outcome.
Johnson however wants to prepare for no deal and claims we will have £39billion to spend on a no deal.
Hunt claims not to want to set a “do or die” deadline of October 31, as it could risk a general election.
Meanwhile Johnson claims not leaving by the end of October will cause the loss of a general election for the Tory party.
Hunt claims his negotiating background makes him better suited to reaching a new deal with the EU.
He has also accused Johnson of “blind optimism”.
Both candidates raise their hand when asked if they’re confident the UK will have left the EU by the end of October.
Hunt told Donald Trump his comments about Theresa May were “unacceptable”.
Johnson says he has a strong relationship with the White House, but didn’t give a conclusive answer about the president’s comments.
Hunt will not sack the UK ambassador to the US, Sir Kim Darroch, as a reaction to Trump saying he wouldn’t deal with him, meanwhile Johnson won’t answer the question.
Former Health Secretary Hunt claims he did the right thing not the popular thing as Health Minister.
Corporation tax cuts Hunt proposes will improve the UK economy, he claims.
Johnson says his focused on helping those most in need.
Hunt says “we are not the party of the rich, we are a party for everyone”.
The two men were then given quick-fire questions to answer. Here’s what they said:
Jeremy Hunt was a business owner before he began his career in politics.
He was an entrepreneur who set up two successful businesses following a period living in Japan.
His first business was a marketing consultancy firm based in the technology field.
He built the company up to 27 people before leaving it to start up his second business.
The business was eventually sold to the Farnham-based Whiteoaks consultancy.
Jeremy’s second business was a publishing firm, Hotcourses.
The first guide he produced was in Japanese.
It was designed to help Japanese students choose the right school or college in the UK.
Hotcourses has subsequently become the UK’s largest publisher of guides and websites to help people find the right course or college.
It now publishes in 8 languages and employs over 200 people.
It has a foundation that funds education for children affected by HIV/AIDS in Kenya.
Since being elected as a Member of Parliament, Jeremy has stepped aside from all management responsibilities in the company he set up in order to focus on his parliamentary duties.
