Candidates for leader were meant to have secured nominations from 100 MPs or more in order to proceed to final votes, had they happened. Although Boozo the Clown hadn't actually come out himself and publicly said he was standing, there were people backing him, claiming to have spoken to him and he'd said he would, then quite late at night the night before the deadline, he announced he wouldn't stand.

The jury's still out on whether he actually had enough support in the first place. He claims he had 102 supporters ready to back him so he could get on the ballot, but only about half that number had come out and publicly declared that, and a source from Sunak's campaign did an article for a newspaper here explaining reasons why they doubted he'd got quite as many as he claimed. I suspect we'll never know for sure.
