If he's the right man for the job, great! If not... then no.

So far
it's Boris Johnson with the big backers

[joeysteele]

Crumbs..
The list is getting bigger but the choice worse in my view.

Cleverly is awful too.

Apart from Rory Stewart, Matt Hancock and Sajid David and possibly Hunt.
I wouldn't entertain the others.

If I was a Conservative, I'd be supporting Rory.
In fact he could perhaps get people like me back.

He's just been on TV and said as to social care for the vulnerable and elderly.
He'd rather have that with the NHS taken out of party politics.
With consensus on securing the best for that.

Something I've always agreed with.

Compared to the ugly divisive rhetoric of Farage and co.
That is like a wave of fresh air entering the room of politics.

I think that pretty soon, there will be more MPs in the leadership bid than there are out of it.

I knew we'd get a great one liner from you.
Nice one Livia.

Actually it initially read, "I think, joey..." and then someone posted after you so rather than go back and quote you I just took your name out LOL..

I always look out for your quick quips.
So sharp and hitting right home.

Rory Stewart is my favourite on the list.

And mine. He's a bit of a dude. Did you know Brad Pitt wants to make a film of his life so far?

I've read that too.
He has a fascinating story of his life, it would be interesting.

I can't see them making a film about any of the other contenders, can you? In fact I'd pay not to have to sit through a film about Boris.

[bots]

i'm going to stick my neck out and say that the candidate that promises a new referendum will get the job

I agree totally Livia.

Crikes, I didn't know that! He's lived one heck of a life, which is more than you can say for almost any mainstream politician right now.

Labour Party do not want Rory Stewart.


The Whole Race
needs to speed up.

Well that's another plus to him.

[Vicky.]

I would go for Stewart of those.

However, anyone with a bit of sense would surely run a mile from this, a short term position thats soley to stop the future leader having the brexit thing hanging over them if it all goes south. Its the same as it was when May stepped up tbh, she was never going to be a longterm leader, and she would probably still be ambling on if not for quite how badly she did it. So now, they need someone else to take the crap, before electing the proper leader afterwards.

[reece(:]

Cleverly is horrendous

[Crimson Dynamo]

Esther FTW

[Livia]

I think it'll be a Brexiteer too.

[Liam-]

Anyone but Johnson or Leadsom, preferably Rory

[user104658]

It's a career-ender so hope it's your least favourite and then in a couple of years, you'll never have to hear from them again.

[joeysteele]

Good grief.
Esther McVey on TV this morning was truly awful.
In the 2015 election, I helped Labour in her then seat and was overjoyed she lost it.

For goodness sake, she is one who should be rock bottom of this leadership poll.

Horrible individual politically.
