British media interpret how Johnson's successor was generated, saying these two are strong candidates

　　Overseas Network, July 7. According to the BBC, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson will resign as the leader of the Conservative Party on the 7th, but will remain as Prime Minister until this autumn.

The Conservative Party leadership race is scheduled to take place this summer, with a new prime minister expected to take office in October.

　　According to the British Sky News Network, according to the election process, the start of the Conservative Party leadership election will be determined by the "1922 Committee", a group of Conservative MPs in the lower house of parliament.

Candidates need the support of eight Conservative MPs to run.

　　There will be multiple rounds of voting during the campaign until two candidates remain.

According to the British political system, the leader of the ruling party automatically becomes the Prime Minister.

The new prime minister still needs to be approved by Queen Elizabeth II, who will serve until the next general election.

　　The report also mentioned that British Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab and the new Chancellor of the Exchequer Nazim Zahavi are expected to become powerful candidates for the new Prime Minister.

　　Due to the loss of confidence in Johnson's leadership, on the evening of the 5th local time, the British Minister of Health Syed Javid and the Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak resigned one after another. As of the evening of the 7th, more than 50 government members have joined the resignation ranks. There are also many officials calling on Johnson to resign voluntarily.
