Rishi Sunak accuses Liz Truss of Ā£40bn of unfunded tax cuts.
Truss insists sheāll start paying down the debt in 3 years. āI donāt believe this negative declinist languageā.
How do they erase these attack lines once one of them becomes PM?

āThis is scaremongering! This is Project Fear!ā says Truss.
āI remember who was on the side of Project Fear in the referendum and it wasnāt meā says Sunak.
āMaybe Iāve learnt from itā replies Truss.

Sunak has really come out fighting tonight - real underdog spirit. He is coming across as much more assured in his economic argument, but this was always going to be his strong suit and suspect Conservative members will still like Trussās talk of tax cuts. #BBCDebate
Tory MPās start voting for the next round of candidates to go through in the #LeadershipDebate in half an hour.
For what itās worth, I think @RishiSunak & @KemiBadenoch & @trussliz should be in the final 3 and I wish the @SkyNews debate wasnāt cancelled.

@RishiSunak @KemiBadenoch @trussliz @SkyNews All 3 candidates offer something different, and as our country goes on to face the biggest economic challenge, itās worth having the market of ideas be explained & the mistakes reflected upon. I donāt think of them as āattacksā. People learn & grow from challenging times.
@RishiSunak @KemiBadenoch @trussliz @SkyNews Rishi & Kemi offer a fresh diversity, but they also offer fresh ideas. Weāre going to need fresh ideas & bold decision making to tackle the tough times ahead. Liz offers experience & a deep understanding of the Union.
I hope a future Government contains all 3 of them in cabinet.

#LeadershipDebate points missed (or deliberately avoided by Johnson): we donāt know all the facts about this case yet, and we wonāt know for some time - the inquest could take up to 2 years. We donāt know why Khan killed, or what, if anything could have been done differently 1/
to prevent it. Letās have an enquiry, not a witch hunt. Secondly, there is no justification AT ALL for cutting the early release tariff from a half to a third of sentences for all sentences over 4 years that carry a maximum life sentence; thatās just trying to look tough 2/
on the backs of other prisonersā suffering; if prisoners have engaged with rehabilitation & turned their lives around, why should they be punished for what Khan did? How will keeping them in for another few years keep public safe if they get released then with the same lack 3/
