Nomination News

Nominations have now closed in the election for Conservative leader.

In the event there were ten candidates who achieved the required level of support to be nominated - eight signatures from Conservative MPs.

The ten candidates nominated who will go forward to the first ballot of Tory MPs are (in alphabetical order):


Michael Gove, 
Matt Hancock, 
Mark Harper,
Jeremy Hunt, 
Sajid Javid, 
Boris Johnson, 
Andrea Leadsom, 
Esther McVey, 
Dominic Raab, and 
Rory Stewart.

At that stage whoever comes last, and any other candidate who fails to attract 5% of the votes cast by Tory MPs, will be eliminated.
