The former home secretary Amber Rudd has revealed she will stand as a candidate at up coming general election on 12 December.
She will no longer be an MP, but Rudd is not “finished with politics” and wants Boris Johnson to succeed.
Rudd told the Evening Standard, “I spoke to the Prime Minister and had a good meeting with him a few days ago. I’m really confident of my position.
“I will be leaving the House of Commons on perfectly good terms with the Prime Minister and I want him to succeed.
“I’m not finished with politics, I’m just not standing at this election.”
