'I hope every candidate realises why this is so important for voters generally and why it's important for Conservative supporters. And I hope that we will see, particularly with the final two, a very clear statement that this is an agenda that they do support.'

Pressed a second time, he added: 'I don't rule anything out and I don't rule anything in.'
