Boris Johnson pulls out of the Tory leadership contest
He says he hoped he, Sunak and Mordaunt could come together and unite but they have been unable to do so
One moderate Tory MP says: “I don’t think Boris had the numbers. His team called me and some of my colleagues. That shows how desperate they were. Asking us is like asking Damian Green to back him.”

Twats gone; he couldn't get enough MPs to vote for him. They said they had over 100 but no proof and public support wasn't 100+ either so it was probably a lie to try to get support from MPs but it looks like they didn't fall for his shit. Prime Minister Rishi it is.
Boris pulling out. That might be a first.
