Hunt vs Johnson (alphabetical order)

Well, here we have it.  The last two candidates are Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson.  Remain vs Leave....From the statistics of the MPs voting, Johnson has a clear majority.  But will the party members follow suit, I wonder?I dislike both intensely, but Jeremy Hunt has a lot more experience in government than Johnson.  But there is no hope as far as I am concerned.

I was expecting Sue to be on here doing some Boris cheerleading but maybe she's gone for a lie down after we both agreed on something in another post?

It looks very like Gove was stitched up. I had hoped he might get through and really get stuck into Boris. Maybe Hunt will get tough. Somebody needs to. This is the sort of commentary we will have to get used to (away from the cheerleading right wing press)  https://www.politico.eu/article/boris-johnson-british-prime-minister-brexit-clown/

Matt I admit I was excited by our conscious coupling but I have recovered my equilibrium now.😉xxI said months ago that Boris would be our next PM and was scoffed at. I will resist the urge to say 'I told you so'.  Oops I just did.😸

I recall that you said at one point that you favoured Dominic Raab?

Caroline Whitehead ● 2700d

I said Raab would be my choice. I also said that if the final vote went to the members Boris would be PM. Read my original post again Caroline.

I must confess that, when I first saw Barbara Stevens' thread about Knobs, I thought it was about the Tory leadership contest...
