Theresa May is set to become the next Prime Minister of Britain after Andrea Leadsom quit the campaign.
Leadsom became the third successive ‘Leave’ campaigner to leave the race for PM, leaving a Remainer to take the reigns.
In a statement she noted that May has the support of more than 60 per cent of the party and will be able to provide the “strong and unifying” government we urgently need.

Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
