I'm not clicking on the DM link but I see via the wording it is about the meeting of the two. The BBC says it's been happening. |

I heard that Johnson and Sunak are meeting tonight. PM won’t get 100 (in my view). If Johnson gets or thinks he can get to 100 then it’s possibly more chaos. But interesting to think how it could go. Goes well. Sunak shows Johnson he has balls. Hunt says he’s not going to work for Johnson if he runs. Bank of England say the same. Johnson has a dose of reality and does what’s best for the country and let’s Sunak take the job. Goes badly. Johnson stays to form and says he will make a contest if it. Sunak “knows” the members will vote in Johnson and pulls out to sit at the backbenches and watch the fire. |

I can't omagine anyone wanting the job at the moment. Surely it'd be safer personally for everyone to put their head down, hope the poisoned chalice passes them by, and live to fight again in some future. Á la Boris in 2016. |

Johnson continues to slip slide away in the betting. Never over till it’s over but it looks very likely that Sunak will win uncontested and save the party the embarrassment of the electronic vote that looked like a shambles in the making.

That's the only bit wrong with the video. He was born a 50+ year old in the 1800s and never aged a day.

I'd say the price drifting is merely because of price decay. With such a short time until nominations close, the price will continue to go out while it doesn't look like (or at least yet to get to) getting the 100 nominations required. |

Mordaunt might look out of this but if Johnson accepts he can’t make it and all his backers are never Rishi types, she could pick all those nominations up and turn Rishi over in the members vote. I’d not be happy laying her at 25/1 at this point, that looks worth a bet |
