    One of these will be the next Prime minister
    We dont have a vote unless members of the Tory Party which I guess excludes almost all of us but who would you prefer if you had to pick one
    Im really struggling to find the least bad, Tugendhat perhaps but not at all convinced, it might even be Sunak thats the least bad option. Some are even worse than others Patel and Braverman spring to mind.

    Shapps is on the front row of Sunaks speech, clapping away, so I'm assuming he's not got the numbers to run.

    Sticks in the craw to say you'd want any of the f*****s, but Sunak is the most intelligent.

    If they need 20 nominations shapps wont even make the first ballot, excluding Chisthi who doesnt count, he is bottom at the moment with 8
    Only Sunak Mordaunt and Tom made 20 so far though Truss close so will surely make it

    Tugendhat seems to have the least dirt than most and he served in Iraq and Afghanistan so he's got something about him.

    I would sooner stick pins in my eyes than select any of those, what a choice! I am sure the purple rinse brigade will choose the one who has the most right wing policies

    Sunak by a country mile. What's more, if he is 'annointed' Labour are even deader in the water than they are now.

    Tax cuts for their mates and public sector jobs decimated, already announced 6-8000 jobs going at NHS England , that’s 40% of the workforce

    Sunak being favourite is crazy. He won't mention tax cuts, his family do business with Russia and his rich wife had nom dom status. He might get picked as the next PM but he would have a job on to get the public to vote for him.

    Well it won’t be Grant Shapps because he’s just pulled out (of the contest that is) Why the silly sod ever thought he could win I’ll never understand

    Unfortunately, in a world which voted for Boris and Trump, you are trying to bring logic & common sense into the equation!

    He will probably be standing under one of his other aliases and hoping that no one notices

    I don't think you have been looking at English voting patters over recent elections.

    She gave up her nom Dom status when it was discovered she was one , Sunak still having a green card to work in the States though seems to stop being mentioned

    I'm going with Mordaunt, because she's had a normal upbringing so it likely to be the least c*ntish.

    Shapp’s votes had to be divided by four though so they were equally split between his aliases, he never stood a chance.
