Summary

  1. Boris Johnson is ruling himself out of the race to replace Liz Truss, saying he had enough support but decided it wasn’t the right thing to do
  2. PM says he ‘removed the big hurdle’ from nominations with 102 supporters, although only 57 MPs have done so publicly
  3. He says he thinks he would have been “in a good position” for a victory in the 2024 general election but “this is not the time”
  4. He reached out to Sunak and Mardont to “work together in the national interest,” he said, but they did not come to an agreement.
  5. Former Chancellor Rishi Sunak confirmed earlier that he is in the race to be the next Conservative leader, saying he wants to “fix our economy”.
  6. Prior to Johnson’s announcement, the BBC’s number of public announcements of support included 146 for Sunak, 57 for Johnson and 24 for Benny Mordaunt.
  7. These numbers will change, as MPs switch allegiance in the coming hours
  8. Penny Mordaunt told Sunday with Laura Koensberg that she regrets Liz Truss’ small budget and will keep Jeremy Hunt as chancellor.
