Boris continues to avoid questions over Tory leadership

Conservative MP Boris Johnson has continued to avoid questions over a comment he made yesterday stating that he will run for the Conservative Party leadership after the prime minister stands down. When asked at a business event in Manchester if he would stand as a candidate in the next leadership election, the former foreign secretary replied: "Of course I'm going to go for it."
