Tory leadership contest to start 10 June, I am told, writes Robert Peston

Well she does not want the state visit of Donald Trump and the D-Day celebrations of the preceding week to be undermined by the unseemly spectacle of Tory MPs and ministers scrabbling and scrambling to replace her.

Bit of wishful thinking there.

You dont think it would be more that the unseemly spectacle of Trump's visit might undermine the seriousness of the Tory leadership contest?

Again?

A fair point, well made.

Sky seems to be expecting this meeting to be brief, with an announcement fairly soon now.

Theresa was last seen preparing to be smuggled out of Downing Street in a bin.

Phillip May is speculated to be Nicaragua.

Says something that three of the four confirmed candidates are described by their "former" cabinet post.

I don't know about outlasting Gordon Brown. I reckon she's determined to cling on until this thread is as long as the Corbyn thread. Just the 796 pages to go.

So do people’s bets count until the date she resigns (I.e. today if she gives notice to quit in a couple of weeks) or the actual date of leaving?

With bookies it's mostly actually leaving office, check ts and Cs!
