[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.
Exactly. 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.

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

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.

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.

He'd be a good choice during the 'period of change and adjustment'/recession. Then get rid of the smug pr*ck once there is an upturn in the markets.

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.
