Dominic Raab has been knocked out of the Tory leadership race in the latest ballot of MPs, leaving five candidates in the battle to be the next PM.
Axar.az reports citing BBC.
Boris Johnson once again came top of the ballot, with 126 votes - 12 more than in the first round.
Jeremy Hunt, Michael Gove, Sajid Javid and Rory Stewart also got enough votes to make it into the next round.
Mr Raab was eliminated after coming last with 30 votes, three fewer than the minimum needed to progress.
The former Brexit secretary had called for the UK to leave the EU without a deal on 31 October if necessary.
He also caused controversy by refusing to rule out suspending Parliament to thwart attempts by MPs to block a no-deal Brexit.
