Rory for me ....level headed and articulate. Never seen the bloke get agitated or annoyed by any political show he has appeared on afaik....would like him to have not be a remainer,but you cant have everything......also got 25/1 10 days ago......not any more.

Did he not sing Maggie May???

[potless]

The brexiteers in the poll managed to avoid being elected in the last vote for the leadership. Probably hoping that brexit would be over. M.P.s will vote for the person they like the least.

[jesimps]

None of those bludgers who're listed. Unless the new leader is a revalation, I think the Tories are finished for a long long time. However, if I was going to choose, it'd be Steve Baker or Esther McVey. Macca might just edge it, but only because I'd love to see her lovely face on the news after having to look at the wicked witch of the east every day for goodness knows how long.

"Lead them through Brexit indeed !" Let's try "Show them the door". Given that Jean-Claude Juncker did not kick Britain out the door the door on March 30, 2019 as he and the European Commission should have done, my vote is for whoever succeeds Juncker. But, he or she has only my conditional support, and only until November 1, 2019

The fact that Clown Boris leads the survey is saying something about the psyche of the Brits. They just can't be helped.

Ignoring the insults about brits. (that has already been like by 7 remainers.....!) why is the eu continuing this farce by agreeing to further extensions?

I would add John Cleese (In character) to the list...

Great picture of Basil. Sybil would be a more sensible choice but we will probably end up with the colonel or Manuel.

And which wonderful country led by genius fantastic leaders did you sprout from?

[Kwasaki]

Johnson, broadly seen as the frontrunner, said in a conference in Switzerland on Friday that "we will leave the EU on 31 October, deal or no deal."

That sounds good to me at least UK can on with it, seeing as the EU stated they won't budge.

Because it should be the UK (and only the UK) deciding its fate. (I would consider increasing the 39bn though for every extension.)

Baldric

at  least he would have a cunning plan

Not voting as I want a second vote.

Did you loudly object to the first referendum? Or only when it did not produce the result you wanted and smugly expected?

 

If the second vote went against you would you insist on a third?

[Briggsy]

Jacob Rees-Mogg and Frank Field.

The 39bn will be heavily scrutined for sure very soon

A little diversity  -  Emmanuel Macron ????

I was thinking the other Emmanuel... (Emanuelle) 

[Surasak]

Dominic Rabb sets out a good stall, but I believe he has an uphill fight against Boris who at this stage is favourite.

If they had approved May's deal the UK shackles would be broken already

And the one reason they didn't pass it?

[Loiner]

Given the comments on this topic, it has got to be Boris. Anybody who gets the chattering classes up themselves so much has got to be da man.

Because the EU don't want to be blamed for forcing the UK out of the EU into the chaos of a no deal brexit.

 

They want everyone to see that the UK committed suicide by it's own hand. 

[Fairynuff]

Vince Cable or Caroline Lucas. The only two committed to ending the madness  

[tebee]

Whoever it is, they will have an uphill struggle

It’ll be “no negotiations until the 39bn plus interest and extensions have been paid” ???? 

[candide]

At least, with Boris, it will be entertaining. Better an entertaining disaster than a boring disaster.

<SNIP> why is the eu continuing this farce by agreeing to further extensions?

A few scenarios have already been suggested. However, taking on board the reality that most Nation States act in their pragmatic self interest, it is due to a Hard Brexit would damage the EU economy; same applies to the UK.

 

I note it is increasingly  likely Farage will hook up with the Italian Far Right League Party in the EU Parliament, probably others as well, to form a Far Right EU alliance. If the alliance is cemented a number of posters will sadly applaud this threat to UK democratic institutions.

[Loiner]

When this poll is completed and a winner is found, will the losers call for it to be run again? We will all be better informed by then and some might like to change their vote. We will all be very much better informed about who the actual winner is, so the losers may like to regroup, spread more 'Boris fear', then run it again without Boris being an option.
