How will Britain's Conservative Party choose Theresa May's successor?
LONDON - Britain’s ruling Conservative Party will decide the country’s next prime minister in late July - a contest that will bring in a new leader who could pursue a cleaner break with the European Union.
May’s announcement does not trigger a parliamentary election. So far, 11 candidates are running to replace her. The winner of the contest will become party leader and prime minister. Voting will take place in a room in parliament, which will be set up with voting booths. The colour of the ballot paper is chosen the day before and will be different for each round. Completed papers will be placed in a metal ballot box.
