AUDIO: Conservative race to become the UK's next prime minister

Theresa May ended her reign as Conservative Party leader on Friday London time after two years and 10 months in the job.

She will continue as Britain's Prime Minister until her successor is chosen, after a series of votes beginning next week and ending in July. The leadership race is now on in the Conservative Party but, just as with Brexit, the party and the nation are divided over who they want to lead them.
