Political commentator Samuel Sweek declared "I would rather chop off my own arm" than vote for either Kemi Badenoch or Robert Jenrick in a shocking moment on GB News today.
Speaking to Nana Akua and Matt Goodwin the commentator from the Peace and Justice project explained: "As I said, I find the level of debate, the level of the end product of a Tory leadership contest, a worrying development for UK democracy."
Offering a different perspective to Sweek, political commentator Emma Webb revealed that she will be "voting for Kemi."
Webb said: "I think the Conservative Party need to acclimatise to being an opposition and to do opposition well in order to be in with a strong chance of winning in five years time.
