no, he won't have that responsibility. I would have liked him to be held accountable for leading the leave campaign, but if it turns out a disaster, he won't be forgotten. Better to have someone that has not pissed off half the country as leader.

If Micheal Gove wins I will lose whatever little faith I have left in the UK.

Well it's a difficult one, Gove is now a backstabber and Teresa May wanted to remain, not sure either is suitable?

Can't really see how someone who didn't believe in brexit is right to negotiate it.

I quite like Andrea Leadsom.

Morally, this election should be brought forward, I am not backing away from what I thought as right as to Brown.
It would be very simple to repeal the fixed term parliament act anyway.

The Country should say now what govt and who it wants to do all these complex negotiations and dismantling of our 43 years in Europe.
No matter what govt the electorate may chooses, majority Conservative,labour or a coalition.

This would be more outrageous than going back on the EU vote if with all these changes and policy changes too,on top of the EU exit, the Country was now denied a voice in a general election with an unelected PM in place.

Whoever takes over will I feel sure face massive pressure to hold an early election as they have no mandate,if they don't that will turn to anger too and rightly so.
This is too long to the next election,almost a full term,this would be a PM acting on a major constitutional issue that affects across the whole UK who has not a bit of elected authority to do so.

How can we possibly have a general election with both Labour and the Tories without any kind of leadership? Both sides need to sort their leadership and have a settling down period.

Once they've both got their leaders in place they should then plan to do a GE within a year.

Absolutely right,

They all have to get sorted out for the local elections next May Mock, there is no reason why a general election could not be fought at the same time and voting on the same day too.

Hardly any disruption, as if any disruption could be as bad as things are now.
