Is Claire Perry still standing?

Being denounced as unfit for office by Gove, who after all knows what its like to be unfit for office, shouldn't necessarily have torpedoed Boris' leadership campaign so quickly. I am not at all certain Boris would have finished last. Boris was the only other name on the leadership list...

Don't know. Just scratching around for some logic really. I didn't understand why Boris didn't stand and didn't buy that Gove was the reason. Supporting Leadsom or saying a few nice things about her seems inconsequential now IMHO.

Boris gets a big job, does that suggest a deal was done in the leadership contest? It would seem so.
