Who should be the next leader of the Tory party?

[Bluesince1979]

Sounds like the last few Labour leaders. It could be a female to be fair

The last few or all?

It has Got to be a brexiteer, surely. There is absolutely no point it being someone who was a remainer.

Yes it does. The downside is that it limits the field to talentless twats.

Who are the talented twats?

It has Got to be a brexiteer, surely. There is absolutely no point it being someone who was a remainer.

Why does it though, now Brexit is done?
All the current problems are rooted in narrowing the choices down to only one wing of the party, both for the leader and the cabinet. I can see why that position was deemed necessary in 2019 but now, when the county needs to find someone that can at least attempt to bring it more together, it seems foolish to be so arbitrary about this.
That notwithstanding, the choice of the next PM is going to be made by a few thousand elderly members of the Conservative party, so it will undoubtably be a prominent, very right wing, brexiteer who gets the job. Should solve everything…….

There aren’t any. I said talentless.

Truss, Wallace, Tugendhat, Hunt, Shapps, and Javid out then?

 

[halfmist]

Debate and fresh ideas are dead in this country. Its more a pick a side and defend mentality. We need to raise an eye watering amount of money and hard decisions need to be made.

This is exactly it.
It would take mouthwatering amounts to change the world to how the left want it to be.
Joe Public just don’t have the stomach for it to happen so it just ends up being fantasy politics.

That's his bid fucked.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

The last line from the tory says it all here.

Truss, Wallace, Tugendhat, Hunt, Shapps, and Javid out then?

Can we arrange them in order of uselessness?
Shapps would be spectacularly awful (he'd do what he's told though), Truss would be determined to make a legacy and would probably declare war on someone, anyone.
Tugendhat I know little of, but he's previously praised MBS at some point and is a Bilderberger, which I'd automatically think is a bad thing.
Hunt the party don't like.
Wallace hasn't said a lot, is a pretty good, down-to-earth Defence secretary, but would win by not being one of the others.
Javid wielded the knife, and is a banker, so the donors will like him. No idea what he stands for though.

That leaves the only person to get recent Royal approval - Paddington Bear.
