Some UK ministers want Hammond as caretaker PM -Sunday Times

LONDON, Jun 25 (Reuters) Some leading members of Britain's ruling Conservative Party want finance minister Philip Hammond to become prime minister, replacing Theresa May and steering the country through the Brexit process, the Sunday Times reported.

Hammond was sidelined for months by May during the election campaign and had been widely expected to be fired after the vote. But the party's poor showing has propelled him back into the spotlight.
