Tory leadership hopefuls Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss laid out their plans for the country in a hustings broadcast on GB News. 
Truss said she backed fracking 'in areas where there is local support' and argued for greater use of North Sea energy resources to make the UK more energy-independent.  She later hit out at the BBC, telling host Alastair Stewart that GB News was not like the BBC because 'you actually get your facts right'. 
Sunak said he wanted to change the definition of 'asylum seeker' in order to stop 'lefty lawyers' exploiting the system by stopping deportations. He also said levelling up should not be defined as something that was only for the north of England
