I reckon this is what lies behind Johnson's strange, sudden withdrawal from the leadership race. He got a quiet call from May's people. "Listen, you know Theresa is favourite to win. Drop out and you're guaranteed a top job in her cabinet. But only if you withdraw your candidacy".
If this is true then May is a lot more sneaky and power hungry than she seems. Which could be worrying.
