Sunak said he wants to fix the United Kingdom’s economy.
But Business Secretary Jacob Rees-Mogg said Boris Johnson will clearly stand for the party leadership.
The BBC’s tally of public declarations of support currently has one hundred and forty six members of Parliament for Sunak, fifty seven for Johnson and twenty four for Penny Mordaunt.
Sunak picks up backing from former Home Secretary, Suella Braverman and her successor Grant Shapps, while Foreign Secretary, James Cleverly endorses Johnson.
