The nominations have closed now, which leaves us with these five: Andrea Leadsom, Michael Gove, Liam Fox, Theresa May and Stephen Crabb. These will be whittled down to two candidates by the ballot process - and then I get to vote.

It wasn't quite accurate once it got here. The tracking showed every detail of it's journey through 3 airports on USPS tracking, and then it got to the UK. It left Langley on 22nd, and then showed as 'delivered' on Monday ...it was actually delivered to our RM though who then sent their ransom card, and I got it on 28th!
I wasn't surprised when he decided not to stand - that piece he wrote last Sunday alarmed me a lot, and I felt sure he'd try to please both sides and end up selling us down the river.
His attitude over the weekend showed how unprepared he was for the 'out' vote to win, and that letter said it all.
Some have suggested that he'd wanted to take over from Cameron by discrediting him with a close result, but winning wasn't on his agenda until confronted with it. I'm inclined to think that a likely scenario, and that he's now realised he's made a bit of a mess of that.
LF, MG & TM seem to have more experience in politics than the other 2, SC won't be liked because of his association with CARE and the LGBT problems.The nominations have closed now, which leaves us with these five: Andrea Leadsom, Michael Gove, Liam Fox, Theresa May and Stephen Crabb.

Assuming no pun intendedIt could be that Andrea leads 'em.
anything is possible
Assuming no pun intended
Pun was intended - I'll get my coat....
It could be that Andrea leads 'em.
Just seen her interviewed....Seems a very decent lady,i like her.
In other political news...
What more can MPs do to show Jeremy Corbyn that he no longer has their support? If they were to stuff him in a sack and chuck him in the Thames he'd be complaining that it wasn't in the Party Constitution to do so. Has the man got no pride? Does he secretly want to smash Labour into tiny pieces?

I haven't taken to Crabb ....call it intuition or whatever - he's all teeth and designer stubble!The nominations have closed now, which leaves us with these five: Andrea Leadsom, Michael Gove, Liam Fox, Theresa May and Stephen Crabb.

Wondering about Gove too, (despite the fact he supported 'out') - he can be a treacherous ally by the look of things.
Given the opportunity or time, they can all be sly though, so who knows.
It's really embarrassing to see him behave in that way. I did see it reported (news or newspaper website) that it's the unions pulling his strings, and that they've told him not to resign.
...still, we could encourage his being thrown into the Thames in a sack - could work
For me it's now between Leadsom and May. Mrs May was very impressively direct today - Brexit means Brexit, no free movement of people etc.. I think that they'd both be good choices. Mr Gove, by protesting so frequently that he hasn't the qualities that a leader needs, has hung himself with his own rope imho..
I've found a big sack but I'm looking for some heavy weights to go in it first. Free movement of Jeremy into the Thames...

I know little of Leadsome, but agree May was impressive, and we see a sense of humour too ...she had a snipe at Boris's water canon!
Was about to suggest Dianne Abbott, but perhaps not, it's uncharitable.

Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott in the sack together? Ah yes - the cycling trip to Germany!

Seriously though, he should be bloody ashamed of himself. I don`t see Labour getting over this mess quickly.
I understand that it is traditional to toll a bell for a death. We are currently witnessing the death of the Labour party, which now has to split imho.. Ding Dong!

Well it looks as though they have thousands of new members now, so money in the coffers ..lots of votes - anyone's guess as to what will happen now!
...bell, Corbyn in the well .....bit more discrete than the Thames!I understand that it is traditional to toll a bell for a death. We are currently witnessing the death of the Labour party, which now has to split imho.. Ding Dong!
"Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee."
Yes, I like the way she refused permission for him to put it into action, another waste of taxpayers money by Boris on top of the stupidly expensive buses he bought for LondonI know little of Leadsome, but agree May was impressive, and we see a sense of humour too ...she had a snipe at Boris's water canon!

Back to the Tory race - I'd love to see May as PM and Leadsom as Chancellor. Tough, on point and steady - ideal!
I`m not sure it has to split, but needs a lot of reparation !I understand that it is traditional to toll a bell for a death. We are currently witnessing the death of the Labour party, which now has to split imho.. Ding Dong!

You would be surprised at the old building stuff i keep hold of Trisha In other news, vaping related, i`ve very nearly finished off my Superstar Circles now, and i`m also down to my last Tank of Loop Dee Loop, so over the weekend i`ll be trying my other 2 rejuiced ones.
I`m also going to make up 100 ml of Lemon Drizzle Cake, from Chefs one hit wonder range ! Anyone know what the % is for it ??
