Theresa May overtakes Boris Johnson in the race to replace Cameron as Tory leader
Survey by ConservativeHome shows Home Secretary has beaten London Mayor for the first time - with 22.7% support ahead of his 22.6%
Michael Gove trailed with 17% ahead of David Davis with 11%
Just 7% would back Chancellor George Osborne to lead the country
Theresa May has replaced Boris Johnson as favourite to become the next Tory leader, according to a poll of party members.
The survey by influential grassroots website ConservativeHome reveals the Home Secretary has beaten the London Mayor into pole position for the first time, after a series of tough interventions on immigration.
Of the 800 Tory members polled last month, 22.7 per cent said Mrs May should be the party's next leader, just ahead of Mr Johnson on 22.6 per cent.

Despite the economic recovery, just 7 per cent of Tories believe Chancellor George Osborne should succeed David Cameron.
