In the battle to become the next Tory leader and prime minister, Penny Mordaunt looked to boost her chances by sharing the latest poll on the preferred candidate according to, well, never mind about that.
And we’re not entirely sure what response she were expecting, but this surely can’t have been it.

There's self deprecation and then there's just straight up admitting you're not the favourite…

This doesn’t make me want to vote for you but it does make me want to know if my Dominos is on the way.

In a bid to add a little clarity, Mordaunt’s Twitter account later offered up this.
Penny is the perfect choice to go to the members in the head-to-head.#PM4PM https://t.co/poTkgvgeWq

Lol, why are you tweeting this like it’s a good thing for you? Way behind Sunak and tied with ‘none’.
Vote Penny – I’m as good as no one!
