I'm sure a few will drop out early, give other candidates their endorsement, etc.
I afraid I have never heard of him but I will listen to what he has to say and duly consider him.Currently my vote remains with Rory Stewart.
I've never started a thread with a poll before this one. I've just added Sam Gyimar to the looooong list. I'm beginning to wonder if this is one of the polls with the most options ever on AVForums, is there a limit? Can't wait for a few more self-serving narcissists to join the race. LOL

No wonder there are two funny smilies! data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
Mediocre - A broad rating against the benchmark of politicians in modern politics.
Competent - Has the ability, knowledge, or skill to do something to a satisfactory standard.By way of example his tenure in MinAG.
Not to be trusted - As it says on the tin.
Effective - Can produce the desired or intended result.By way of example, his promotion of the Brexit cause during the referendum.

I am sure you are aware 'Funny', 'Sad', 'Wow' and 'Angry' are generally used by a variety of posters on these forums when such individuals are unable to effectively articulate their argument.
Listening to Sam Gyimar’s stance, he sounds like a LibDem infiltrator.

The Conservatives have always had a liberal wing which I count myself as part of!However, the increasing intolerance of such views in the party, along with the polarisation of British politics, poses an existential crisis to the Conservatives IMHO.
Probably looking for his 15 minutes of fame before he is deselected by his local constituency.
