    THE UK's ruling Conservative Party takes the next step towards selecting the nation's new prime minister on Tuesday after the leadership candidates outlined different ways to manage withdrawal from the European Union.

    All 330 Tory Members of Parliament will be balloted on the five contenders vying to succeed David Cameron, with the one receiving the fewest votes dropping out of the race when the results are announced at about 7pm in London.
