Where Is The Next Tory Leader?
When Theresa May resigns, as she surely will, if not today, in the next few days, where is the safe pair of hands to sort out the mess that the Brexit Referendum has dumped the country?
- Kenneth Clarke and others of his generation are too old and too pro-Remain.
- Boris Johnson is too volatile.
- Ruth Davidson is not in Parliament.
I suspect many others will pass on the poisoned chalice.
John Major was the surprise to follow Margaret Thatcher and went on to win an election. Is there another like him? I don’t think so!
Theresa is going to have to drink from it first.
