So is the weekend of the 15th / 16th the one when the papers get the opportunity to unload everything they've got on the unfancied runners? Or do they wait till the 22nd to whittle it down to just one?

I still don't think it'll be Johnson. This is their last opportunity to avoid electoral oblivion for the next couple of decades, and whilst the one in the headlines aren't admitting this, I imagine the majority of the Tory MPs know it.

The timetable for the leadership contest
It then goes out to members on 22nd June, and a new PM is expected w/c 22nd July. That all feels slightly terrifying (in that the prospect of Johnson is becoming all too real...)
