Taking aim at Boris Johnson, British PM hopefuls make Brexit case. More here:

LONDON - Several hopefuls vying to replace British Prime Minister Theresa May turned their fire on favorite Boris Johnson on Sunday, questioning his pledge to leave the European Union by the end of October no matter what.

But Johnson, who unlike many politicians is better known by his first name, was often mentioned and his relative silence has so far done little to dent his popularity. He secured a large lead in the first round of voting by Conservative lawmakers and his team hopes for an increased share this week in the second.In his weekly Telegraph newspaper column, Johnson ignored the criticism over his absence, instead turning his attention to the “digital divide” in Britain.

“I am not going to create a set of circumstances that makes it all but impossible to get a deal because I think we should be offering the country some better choices,” he told the BBC. Rory Stewart, who wants to rule out a no-deal Brexit, took issue with the argument of Johnson and other candidates that the only way to get an improved deal from the EU was to prepare for leaving without an agreement and use that as leverage.

Awkward ! The favorite conspicuous by their absence ! They all look a bit lack lustre ...

The revamped 15 to 1 looks shite.

We're supposed to trust the running of our country to a man whose own advisors don't trust him to open his mouth because they know he will make a fool of himself ! There is something seriously wrong within the Conservative Party.
