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

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.

(Poll is based on rumours from the media)

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.

If only Zac Goldsmith hadn't sold his soul to the devil with the most disgusting dog whistle campaign seen in British politics for quite sometime, I'd have said him.

The options now really are quite appalling

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

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.

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.

Wouldn't it be wise to pick someone from Scotland to make it unlikely that they will secede?

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.
