ArrowRight Supporters for the three presumed front-runners — Rishi Sunak, Penny Mordaunt and, yes, Boris Johnson — were out of the blocks early on Friday, setting out their pitches for why their person should get the keys to 10 Downing Street, the prime ministerial residence. Could Boris Johnson stage an extraordinary political comeback? What about Rishi Sunak, the bookies’ favorite who fell to Liz Truss in the last contest?

The party is working on an astonishingly short time frame and plans to have their contest wrapped up in a week. The real lessons are first that the Conservatives ceased to be conservative in the three decades since Margaret Thatcher left office. No one has officially declared they are running but backers for the top three — and the new rules ensure there cannot be more than three — have started declaring their support.
