Here is a summary of todays events:

Also during the debate, Truss was asked whether integrity has been lost in the Westminster bubble?

Truss said: I would make sure we had zero tolerance for bad behaviour and also offer support to MPs.

She said she would look at the role of the ethics advisor.

I slightly worry about outsourcing ethics to somebody else, she added.

During the debate, there was a question on trust. Nadine Dorries says you cannot be trusted, Burley directed to Sunak.

Boris Johnson deserves enormous credit for what he achieved at the time, he replied. It got to a point when it got too difficult for me to stay. It is simply impossible for a chancellor and PM not to be on the same page on economic policy.

He added that the government was on the wrong side of an ethical problem and enough was enough.

Sunak referred to the Chris Pincher scandal.

It wasnt OK to defend it because it was wrong. We need to bring trust and integrity and decency back into politics.

George Parker, political editor of the Financial Times, has picked up on Truss response to the windfall tax.

Ian Birrell has criticised Sunak for playing the populist card during the debate.

The is Paul Waugh on Kay Burleys question: Will the real Liz Truss please stand up? It will be revisited, and often, he says.

Full Fact has posted on Twitter regarding Liz Truss comments tonight about going to fight in Ukraine.

After technology to measure who the studio audience would vote for between the two candidates crashed, Burley resorts to a show of hands. The vast majority would vote for Sunak.

Some more from tonights debate, Burley asked Sunak why so many people have come out in support of Liz Truss and not him?

Plenty of people who sat around the cabinet table are supporting me, he said.

He said the Conservative party are all one team, all one family and will come together after the leadership election.

Burley asks if he is too rich to be prime minister?

I think the British public judge people by their character and actions, not by their bank account, he says.
