Mr Walker had been hoping to become a Conservative MP and was on The Party 's list of approved parliamentary candidates, but announcing his resignation on Saturday, he labelled the Tories " out of touch".
Elsewhere, some Tory MPs want tax cuts and Mr Sunak's predecessor, Liz Truss , will use a speech on the fringes of the conference to demand a reduction in corporation tax.
Speaking to The Bbc 's Politics East programme, the former Prime Minister said she believed the Conservatives could still win The Next election providing they can show that that they have A Vision for The Future .
She Said people " never vote on the past" but on who they think will do The Best job in The Future .
Ms Truss also praised the Prime Minister saying he had made " positive progress" with his announcements on adding " but I want to see him do more on that front".
" I now want to see more action to open up our oil and Gas supplies in Britain including using shale Gas - we do need to make energy cheaper. "
Speaking to the same programme, former Home Secretary Priti Patel said: " I think the country has looked at our party in government over The Last 12 Months and seen some pretty disappointing behaviour. "
She added that The Public would be thinking: " What on earth is going on with those MPs in Westminster? "

Mr Sunak has repeatedly refused to say if The Will run from Birmingham to the North West .

Cabinet ministers Kemi Badenoch and Suella Braverman also want a debate on whether to leave the European Convention on Human Rights .
Speaking Ms Badenoch said the option of quitting the European Convention on Human Rights should be " on the table".
Mr Sunak will not make his main speech until Wednesday, however to mark the start of the conference, the government has announced £1. 1bn of funding aimed at regenerating high streets and tackling anti-social behaviour.
The Money will be shared between 55 Towns - including Torquay, Rotherham and Kilmarnock - with each getting £20m over a decade.
Mr Sunak said politicians had focused on cities while taking Towns " for granted".
" The result is the half-empty high streets, rundown Shopping Centres and anti-social behaviour that undermine many Towns ' prosperity and Hold Back people's Opportunity - and without a New Approach , these problems will only get worse. "
He Said The Money would put funding " in The Hands of local people" adding " that is how we Level Up . "
The Money - which is separate from - includes money for seven Towns in Scotland and four in Wales.
The government says it would work on determining The Best approach with the Northern Ireland government,
