Rory makes it through to the next round with 19 votes, so there is still hope. Hopefully the rejected candidates supporters will plump for him, however I doubt it since they were all brexiteers.
If he fails, I think he should join the lib dems, and become their leader, and on current polling they are in line to be the next government. |

My suspicion in this era is that if he proves the best candidate and sneaks the crown, his appearence will mean he does not enjoy success with the public. |

Agreed. My hope is that either Boris or McVicious will do the Brexit stuff and then bugger off for ever! |

MWT agrees with you.
"The more I hear from @RoryStewartUK the more I think he has it to be the next PM ."

He includes an interesting video clip of Stewart from Channel 4 News.
"Is this the person that you want writing the instructions to the nuclear submarines?" Quizzed about Boris Johnson, Tory leadership candidate Rory Stewart says when he asks Conservative members this question he trusts them "to arrive at the correct answer"."

Buttering up Conservative members probably won't do any harm, but not sure if they're really "deeply wise"!
Noticed a comment on Facebook recently by someone who said he wasn't one of Stewart's constituents but had written to him about Brexit and received a well thought-out and well crafted reply in a hand-written envelope. So it looks as if he really is prepared to reach out to people politicians tend to ignore.
I just can't help but think that he's talks far too much sense and seems far too decent to have any hope these days, and keep wondering if he's genuine or if there's a "nasty party" core to him that would burst forth if he did become PM. |
