(Reuters) – Britain’s James Cleverly, who became a junior Brexit minister last month, has officially entered the conservative leadership race to replace prime minister Theresa May, he said in a media interview late on Tuesday.
“We need a change and I believe I am the right person to deliver that change,” he told the Braintree and Witham Times.
