Who has presented the claim for PM in britain at present?

After the announcement of the resignation of Boris Johnson from the post of PM, former Finance minister Rishi Sunak was the first name to submit a claim. Sunak was the first leader of the Johnson cabinet to step down as finance minister in direct opposition to the PM. After him, Transport minister Grant Shapps, Sunak's replacement for Finance minister Nadeem Jahavi, former Foreign minister Jeremy Hunt and former Pakistani-origin health minister Sajid Javid also announced their candidature.

Apart from these names, the names of Goa-born Attorney General Suela Braverman, Nigerian-born Kemi Bednokh and Tory mp tom Tugendhat are also in the race for the party leadership. The last to announce the name for the post of PM is Trade minister Penny Mordent. He presented his claim through a video. Thus far, a total of nine people have become candidates for the party's representative post in the house of Commons, the lower house of the british Parliament. Foreign minister Liz Truss is expected to announce her candidacy soon, increasing the number of candidates in the Conservative party leadership race to 10.

Now know which candidate is ahead?

According to the bookies of britain, among the names that have announced their candidature for the post of PM, Rishi Sunak has the highest chance of becoming the Prime Minister. At present they have a price of 13/8 in the market. That is, the one who puts eight pounds on Rishi Sunak can get 13 pounds on the winner.

Next after him is the name of Penny Mordent, which has a value of 11/2. That is, the one who puts two pounds on the penny has a chance to win up to 11 pounds if he becomes PM. Speculators third choice is Liz Truss having a price of 13/2. The next name in this list is tom Tugendhat, who has a sense of 9/1. The surprising thing is that while Sunak, Truss are two popular names, Mordent and Tugendhat have not been in much discussion.

According to the bookies, apart from these three names, all the famous data-faces who have put their names forward in the race for the post of PM, their chances of winning are very less.
