Former British Prime Minister Theresa May will not stand in the next election. The conservative politician announced this on Friday via short message service X.

She had been a member of the House of Commons for the Tories since 1997. May was also mocked in Britain as "Maybot", a mixture of her name and the English word for robot, because of her stiff demeanor and lack of charisma. She still wants the current Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the government support and believe that an election victory for the Conservatives is still possible.
