Who should lead our Great Nation out of the EU & become the next PM of Great Britain?

[Wizard.]

I personally believe that Andrea Leadsom has shown great leading skills and her inclusion of the EU debates are very notable. Also with her experience in finance she would be great for handling the EU negotiations that will be in the interests of the country's economy - either that or she should take over from the idiot George Osbourne as Chancellor of the Exchequer. We basically need someone who advocated for Brexit as that is what's going to happen and people like Nicky Morgan or Theresa May will try to do what's in their own interests (Remainers) especially Theresa who's instinct cannot be trusted "my instinct tells me that Remain will win the EU". Historically the front runner doesn't usually win, which would be Boris Johnson, who I don't particularly want as PM.

I DIDNT MEAN NICKY CLARKE THE HAIRDRESSER I MEANT NICKY MORGAN AND I DONT KNOW HOW TO CHANGE THE POLL OMG

Nicky Clark, the whole cabinet would have great hair :love:

[Northern Monkey]

A decent Labour government without Corbyn,McDonnell or the awful Abbot.

[Tom4784]

I'd say Theresa, she's probably the best of a terrible bunch.

Boris and Gove are idiots, Nicky Morgan voted against gay marriage, Andrea is uninspring and Stephen Crabb was one of the main people behind the ESA mess.

Theresa by default, they're all ****ing terrible.

Theresa May V. Boris Johnson

We're almost a parody of the US Presedntial Election - Hillary V Donald teas

[Johnnyuk123]

Dark horse with a chance ...Eddie Izzard?

[armand.kay]

Theresa May not sure who out the rest would be the worst but I quake at the thought of Boris being out leader.

[bots]

It would have to be an active brexit supporter, so that narrows the list down. It will either be Boris, or someone that comes from the background, previously not in the frame. As the vote goes to members in the end, I can't see it being anyone other than Boris and as he was a key figure in Brexit, I think he would be a good choice. We need to ensure those that supported exit are held accountable for their actions, and having him as leader is the best way to achieve that.

[joeysteele]

None of those, if he was a candidate I would trust Matt Hancock more.

However,I think a new leader should be elected and then that leader should bring back the fixed term parliament act, have a vote to repeal it,then hold a general election for the electorate to again now decide,who and what make up of govt, majority or a coalition,should negotiate the exit from the EU.

A lot was said rightly on here about Gordon Brown being unelected when taking over from Tony Blair and sitting in the role as PM.
This would be no different and it would be dubious at best and wrong in my view, to have any PM leading such a major issue as negotiating the UK out of the EU, who had not even secured his or her own mandate first to do so via a general election.

[smudgie]

Theresa May would be my choice from the list.
Obviously I would mch prefer it if David Cameron could stay on.

Who is voting for Theresa May? She's a bloody liability. Never has a Home Secretary been so hated by the Police and she's made great strides in making the Fire Service hate her too. She's weak, wishy-washy and would be a ****ing appalling PM.

Oh.... and I'm for Boris.

[microscope]

Anybody except Theresa May. She is the type of women who you would have to polish the cutlery before she would eat her dinner. An utter snob and as politically correct as you could ever get. She would close down every sex shop in the UK if she could have her way lol.

I feel that it will be Boris who wins (regardless of who I prefer) and I do kinda like him. He was great on that show, "Have I Got News For You" lol :laugh: and he has great charisma and quite down to earth and a friendly guy.

I also doubt that they would want a female prime minister after the Margaret Thatcher years.

Andrea Leadsom was the surprise Conservative star of the referendum. Such a calming and happy woman :love:

I really hope she stands for the leadership.

teresa may for me, absolutely nailed on...david davies is a dark hhorse who may throw his hat in the ring again

[joeysteele]

Being funny here,Kate Hoey from Labour, the Conservatives can have her for me and she is right up their street supporting foxhunting with dogs too.

Actually if she went for it, now being serious, Priti Patel could be an interesting choice, not included on that poll however.

Not all Tories support foxhunting. And not everyone who supports foxhunting is a Tory. As you comment demonstrates.

[Shaun]

just thank god it's not Louise Mensch

[GiRTh]

Theres going to be a period of change and adjustment or as some want to call it a recession. Cant see any of those listed wanting to be associated with it TBH.

[Toy Soldier]

Not all Tories support foxhunting. And not everyone who supports foxhunting is a Tory. As you comment demonstrates.

...and to be fair, not all anti-Tories are anti-hunting. I mean I find it distasteful because of all the toffs wanking each other off afterwards, and their stupid clothes, and just in general the people who count it as a hobby because... well... yeah.

HOWEVER I'm going to be blunt. I couldn't give a **** about the actual foxes...

[Brother Leon]

Good ol' Corbyn will save our Great Nation.

[Black Dagger]

Nah. Just a homophobe instead.

Anyway, why are you still bothered about the remain voters, you said yourself they were irrelevant losers yesterday x

[Kazanne]

As long as it's not the turncoat Boris or Gove,I don't care as they are all pretty dire next to Cameron.

[Toy Soldier]

What you mean is, they'll sacrifice a pawn before having a "real name" take over (likely as soon as an upturn is predicted, so they can take credit for it). I have to admit, my opinion of ol' Dave is slightly improved by his flounce, because their ideal world would be him staying in while it all goes to **** and then the likes of Boris stepping in to "rebuild" (i.e. do nothing while the markets bounce back all on their own).

[edit]

This is by the way backed up by the betting on the leadership, which has carefully worded their odds as being for the next permanent Tory leader, suggesting that they expect there to be a sacrificial interim leader.

Valid Points

[joeysteele]

Absolutely right Livia, I do apologise for my unusual generalisation there.

Although qualifying it a little by adding.
It is 'only' the Conservative govt and party that is likely, and it was in their manifesto, to be bringing a bill to parliament to bring that hunting back.


Anyway on topic again,I think Priti Patel would be a surprising but possibly very forward looking choice.

[Toy Soldier]

Have to confess I struggle to give a **** about foxes...

Theres a lot of people feeling and looking very smug at the moment. Being the person associated with the 'Brexit recession' - I hope they keep that name - could be political suicide. Wouldn't be surprised if Boris runs a mile away from the leadership. Too hot for anyone as high profile as him right now.

[Shaun]

Yeah we live in a place literally named after foxes and after hearing the screams of them attacking cats I can't say I want them alive that much either :p

[Kazanne]

I love foxes TS,gorgeous animals

[Toy Soldier]

I love foxes TS,gorgeous animals
I don't have any DISlike for them, though I appreciate the risk of over-population if they were left entirely alone. I also don't see any need for it to be turned into a sport...

I just struggle to muster the energy to REALLY care when there are so many other things going on. Even in the world of wildlife, things that are actual problems with much wider consequences, like Bees. I tend to think that foxes get more attention because they seem close to dogs, and we humans love our doggies.

[Toy Soldier]

Major thread derail going on here :joker:. Unless we can think of a "foxy" Tory to lead... Hmmm...

No its a derail.

I do like them, I know they can be a pest however.
As it happens I was getting at Kate Hoey not the Conservative party but ti si the only party that advocates this hunting return..

However that is no excuse to chase them as they are by the privileged pompous creeps on horseback with a pack of hounds that then chase and exhaust the fox and tear it to pieces alive.

It may be whoever is elected the new leader will not pursue that now anyway, with so much more to deal with such as years of the EU exit.
I still think whoever gets the leadership should hold a general election before any negotiations start.

I still think it would have been David Cameron who could have got the better deal for the UK but I can well understand how devastated he must feel at this time after so much genuine effort he put into this referendum..

I would truly hate to see backstabber Boris now not only take his place but then get credit for anything, which in my view he would not warrant in the slightest.

Possibly of the names on the poll, I could settle for Stephen Crabb but he has no real chance.

I know they can be a pest Joey,but I also think that is partly our fault,and I agree about hunting,they are pathetic,if they ever brought that back I would not support them anymore ,I also agree about Boris and to think I used to like him,with friends like him who needs enemies ? and I bet David Cameron is so relieved now that it's all over,although he'll be sad he can now relax and have time with his family and get a good nights sleep.:hee:
