An interesting theory is being proselytised in Westminster that Theresa May plans to step down in Summer in order to "influence" who becomes the next leader of the Conservatives, and specifically to prevent Boris Johnston from taking over.
The "rationale" being that she will be guiding the outcome from a "position of strength".
Well let's see how that pans out then!
A cynic might just suggest that she is trying to lull people into a false sense of security, wrt making them think that she intends to leave. Do remember that it is barely a week since rumours were abounding she was going to hold a general election in June!
