| Description | There is no greater privilege than to lead the Conservative party in government and I would have been deeply honoured to do it.
I have, however, concluded that the interests of our country are best served by the immediate appointment of a strong and well-supported prime minister.
I am therefore withdrawing from the leadership election and I wish Theresa May the very greatest success. I assure her of my full support. Thank you very much. |
