Then I guess you may as well not bother with what any of them say they'll introduce.

something like that though, most would support it I think.

smoking opium is a big point in favour in my view

I still like him, there's something honest about him
he's the only one I'd not be against, maybe Rudd too
the rest are toxic to varying degrees

He would be the best option which means it'll never happen because we can't have nice things.

He has a challenge ahead for sure, but he has momentum. The tories rarely elect the favourite

He's talking an awful lot about "things he'll introduce". Does he know how the government works? He can't introduce anything at all without getting it voted through! The PM has literally zero executive power. someone should let him know, he's getting his hopes up a bit. Maybe Theresa can have a chat with him, because if anyone knows how little power a PM has...

He is in my view excellent.

Maybe this time, he only leaves his marker but this man would be one of the best ever Conservative leaders.
So hopefully if this isn't fruitful this time, he gets another chance and soon.

I've great admiration and respect for Rory.
He would unite rather than divide, I think the Country not just the Conservative Party.

Yeah, and I think he has elements of New Labour in him while still being a Tory; I think this would win people over from both sides, and see Corbyn off easily.

Imo he's positioning himself for leader at the next contest rather than having serious ambitions of winning this time around. It's quite possible the Tories could be decimated in a future election and he could then be quite an effective leader of the opposition

Thats obviously the sensible thing to do. This time is a poisoned chalice. its the next one they should all want tbh, if they have any sense.

it will eventually morph into a stop Boris campaign, so it will be whoever looks to have the best chance of defeating him. That's why Rory has a better chance than it may look at the moment.
