Conservative leadership candidate Kemi Badenoch has been campaigning in Oxfordshire.
The former business secretary met with local Conservatives in Didcot on Saturday afternoon (October 12).
Ms Badenoch and Robert Jenrick are the final candidates in the contest to succeed Rishi Sunak as Tory leader.
James Cleverly was unexpectedly knocked out of the competition on Wednesday, having been the bookmakers’ favourite after the previous round of voting.
Both remaining candidates now have to make their case to Conservative members across the country, ahead of the final result being announced on November 2.
Conservative county councillor Liam Walker met Ms Badenoch in Didcot on Saturday afternoon.
He said: “I have yet to decide who to back and I look forward to hearing from Robert Jenrick when he visits us next week.”
