Leadership vote round 2
Boris Johnson (114) 126 +12
Jeremy Hunt (43) 46 +3
Michael Gove (37) 41 + 4
Dominic Raab (27) 30 +3 *toast*
Sajid Javid (23) 33 +10
Rory Stewart (19) 37 +18
[Matthew Hancock 20]

So Raab's out, thanks all the Gods and none. Rory walks on!
Tonight's debate smackdown could be epic. And check out the momentum too! Of course, none of Raab's rabble will break for Rory so tomorrow will be tough, but tonight let's just appreciate it...
And in the "what might have been" column, if Javid had got *1* less it would have been game-changing. No good crying over spilt dairy products at 40% post-Brexit tariffs.

Rory Stewart: "I do think Boris Johnson can be stopped by asking questions." He then highlights the fact that BJ has promised totally different (and utterly incompatible) things to different groups of MPs.

I'm not optimistic the media will, though. But he's right. #peston
RS: "I'm trying to save, in my small way, the party, and in my small way the country."

Then goes on to emphasise again that we really, really don't know what Boris Johnson's Brexit views are.

Rory Stewart: out, but not down!

Do you ever find yourself scrolling through the Netflix or Amazon Video catalogues for so long, you might as well have just watched something instead?
Especially the infinite schlock on Amazon Video. Stuff made for 50p in somebody's basement on a shaky GoPro, or Z-list films from the 70s, or random foreign stuff that nobody ever watched even when it first came out. Like trying to find gold in a mud heap.
Ended up treating myself to a rental of the digitally remastered Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Looks glorious.

If you have an interest in Japanese manga (comics) the exhibition currently on at the British Museum is superb.

Stewart needs 14 extra votes to stay in, plus enough to overtake Javid (otherwise he'll reach threshold of 33 and be eliminated anyway as bottom candidate)

NEW: Dominic Raab, Matt Hancock and Sajid Javid under pressure to withdraw this weekend

Their MP backers are telling them they have no chance of winning and want to be free to endorse one of the main candidates

buzzfeed.com/alexwickham/bo…
Team Gove say they're happy with the result but two weeks ago he was in clear second place, now trailing in third

MPs say it's not the coke story but his personal attacks on other candidates that have cost him

"It was undignified and hardly unifying"

buzzfeed.com/alexwickham/bo…
Boris Johnson won more votes than Jeremy Hunt, Michael Gove and Dominic Raab combined

He won more than 3 times the the votes of Gove

And 87 more votes than Raab

Two more Johnson backers: Greg Knight and James Duddridge. That's 11 today, taking him up to 40, with Gove and Hunt still on 28
Johnson has opened up a commanding lead among declared Tory MPs (here broken down by Leave & Remain)
Even if Raab picked up Esther McVey's 6 and Andrea Leadsom's 3, he'd be 9 behind Johnson
