As last time, I will be supporting Rishi Sunak to be our Party Leader and next PM.
Rishi has the skills and ability to steer us through unprecedented global challenges

Now Boris Johnson has ruled himself out it is essential that all Conservatives unite around a new leader & help them tackle the challenges we face

It’s clear the best person to unite the Party is Rishi Sunak. He can count on my full support as our PM & I will be voting for him

Let’s unite and back Rishi Sunak for the sake of our Country. This is what happens when markets think we can have a united Gov and stability. We have war on our continent and Putin using energy as a weapon. 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

We face great challenges at home and abroad.

I said we needed experience at the top of Government and I stand by that.

The candidate with the most experience is clearly Rishi Sunak.

He can count on my full support as our PM and I will be voting for him.

I spoke with my US 🇺🇸 and French 🇫🇷 counterparts, Secretary Antony Blinken and Catherine Colonna, last night. We have issued the following statement:

1/ Boris Johnson delivered Brexit and the great vaccine roll-out.

He led our country through some of the toughest challenges we have ever faced, and then took on Putin and his barbaric war in Ukraine.

We will always be grateful to him for that.

A day is a long time in politics...

Given today's news, it's clear that we should turn to Rishi Sunak to become our next Prime Minister. Rishi is immensely talented, will command a strong majority in the parliamentary Conservative Party, and will have my full support & loyalty.

Such a pleasure to meet up with Ukraine’s Digital Minister Mykhailo Fedorov in Kyiv in the run up to the The GovTech Summit.

What he has accomplished with Ukraine’s Dia app, its drone army and more is amazing and should be studied by other governments
