Boris Johnson’s former adviser gave a blunt response when asked if Rishi Sunak will still be Tory leader at the next general election.
Appearing on Andrew Marr’s LBC programme on Tuesday (26 Marc), Tim Montgomerie was asked if he believes Mr Sunak will still be the Conservative leader in October and November.
Mr Montgomerie replied: “No.”
Mr Montgomerie then claimed Mr Sunak was also questioning his popularity within the Conservatives.
“He has not made his decision to go or anything, but he is not in denial about the challenges he faces personally,” Mr Montgomerie said.
