In politics Theresa May has won the backing of a number of senior Tories in the race to be the next Prime Minister – as Michael Gove prepares to make his pitch for the job.
With supporters of the one-time frontrunner Boris Johnson up for grabs for the five contenders, the Home Secretary secured endorsements from cabinet colleagues Michael Fallon and Patrick McLoughlin.
Cabinet Office minister Matt Hancock – a close ally of Chancellor George Osborne – also came out for Mrs May on Thursday night.
