		</div><p>Jeremy Hunt is the Conservative leadership candidate favoured to boost relations between the nations of the UK, a new poll suggests.</p>
<p>The YouGov flash poll shows 37% of Conservative voters across the UK who responded backed the British Foreign Secretary to improve relations between the nations which make up the UK.</p>
<p>He was 16 percentage points ahead of his rival Boris Johnson, who scored 21% among Conservative voters polled, equal to those who said both would do a good job.</p>
<p>A further 16% of Tories responding said neither would improve relations among UK nations, while 6% said they did not know or were not sure.</p>
<p>A spokesman for Mr Hunt said: <em>“Conservative voters clearly believe Jeremy Hunt is the best choice to protect the Union.</em></p>
<p><em>“Jeremy isn’t paying lip service to the Union, he has set out plans to strengthen it by backing Scottish businesses, backing local armed forces bases and backing fishermen.</em></p>
<p><em>“Conservative voters realise Jeremy and Ruth are the duo who can send Nicola Sturgeon packing in 2021 and keep Scotland strong within the UK.”</em></p>
<p>At a leadership hustings in Perth on Friday night, Mr Hunt ruled out enabling the Scottish Government to hold a second independence referendum while he was prime minister, while his rival did not give a similar assurance.</p>
<p>Mr Johnson pledged to defend the union, and when he was questioned on whether he would rule out another referendum on independence, said: <em>“I see absolutely no case for having a second referendum in Scotland. I think it’s absurd.”</em></p>
