Sajid Javid has revealed the touching letter written by his daughter in which she congratulated him for making it to the final four of the Tory leadership race.
The Home Secretary posted the adorable note from 10-year-old Maya, one of his four children, on Twitter after returning home following yesterday's third round vote.
A proud Mr Javid wrote: 'A long but exciting day just got so much better… came home to this from my 10yr old. Whatever happens next, I will be happy.'
In the charming handwritten note, Maya spoke of the need for the Prime Minister to have 'passion, love, confidence and sportsmanship'.
The letter was written before Mr Javid was eliminated from the leadership contest this afternoon, after he received the fewest votes in the latest round of voting.
Maya wrote: 'I am writing this letter because I am proud of you for doing so well for coming this far to being prime-minister.
