Nigel Farage is preparing a "high-profile" candidate for a potential by-election if Rishi Sunak resigns from Parliament after the Tory leadership contest.

Speculation mounts that both Sunak and his former deputy, Sir Oliver Dowden, may step down from their seats next month. However, sources close to Sunak said they would be "surprised" if he left Parliament now, noting that he has earned goodwill within the Conservative Party by staying on during the leadership contest.

Kevin O’Sullivan and Russell Quirk give their verdict.
