Eliminated candidate Rory Stewart says he is "disappointed" at the result today, adding that the country is at a moment of "great crisis".
He says there is a “gaping hole in the middle of British politics”, and the Conservative Party does not have to "appease" The Brexit Party.
He says some of his warnings about the dangers of a no-deal Brexit “probably proved to be truths that people weren't quite ready to hear”.
"I'm going to keep saying them," he adds.
