Tory Leadership Election

So who is favorite on AVF to be the new Tory Leader?  - Boris the Tory memberships favorite at the moment.

I've said before I like Rabb.

Other than the misquoted Dover thing, he is a clean slate.

Boris would have too much baggage for most of the country. And I don't rate him anyway.

Perhaps a 2 stage poll.  Who do you think and who do you want.

Very different for most i'd expect.

I think Gove may win.   Though, i'd want a few others before it got to him.

Good idea, then we can count the neutrals as well

I think Gove will probably win, though prefer Hunt from that field of sh*t. Can't see any of the lying posturing fudges like Raaaaab, Johnson, Mordaunt, Javid et al going all the way, before being felled by a Rachel Sylvester type, as Leadsom was last time. Hunt's the only one who could win them a majority again.

Then they’ll decide they don’t like the result and appoint Corbyn, because they nobody knew what they were voting for anyway, and they know best.

That’s the rule for elections now isn’t it?

I still like Sajid - normal upbringing, did a real job etc.

Although as a total outsider Rory Stewart always impresses me. Ex Army, ex Diplomat - he has wide experience outside of politics and doesnt allow the bullsh*t to flow by the bucket.

The most likely doesn't tend to be the one who gets it.

I love how in a Tory Leadership thread you were onto Corbyn within 5 posts
