“The choice at the election is clear. Strong and stable leadership in the national interest with Theresa May to see us through Brexit and beyond – delivering well-paid jobs, more affordable housing, a good school place for every child, and a strong economy paying for a strong NHS.”

Ms Rudd was appointed Home Secretary last July and before that, Energy and Climate Change Secretary.

Graeme Williams, chairman of Hastings and Rye Conservative Association, said: “I’m delighted members voted overwhelmingly for Amber’s reselection as our candidate for the General Election. Having worked with Amber for 10 years I know she will continue to work hard for us all in the constituency.

“I am sure she will continue to deliver for her constituents and be a strong advocate for our towns and country districts.”
