Sherwood MP backs Rishi Sunak in Tory leadership contest

Sherwood MP Mark Spencer has given his support to Rishi Sunak this lunchtime (24) in this week’s Tory leadership contest as Boris Johnson stepped out of the race.

Mark Spencer explained his decision is based on who is best placed to “make tough decisions”.

The Sherwood MP said: “I can confirm that I will be supporting The Rt Hon. Rishi Sunak MP to be the next Leader of the Conservative and Unionist Party.

“Over the course of this past summer, I was firmly of the belief that Rishi was, and is, the leader that can unite our Party, bring the whole country together and win us that fifth general election victory and my opinion has not faltered.

“In serious times like these, we need a person to step up to the plate who has a proven track record of being in the room when the tough decisions have been made, and I am in no doubt that Rishi is that person.

Mr Spencer added: “He is a man of good character and great integrity, and I have seen first-hand during my time served with him in the Cabinet that he has the ability to steer us through the unprecedented global challenges we now face.”
