I was listening to the BBC R4 PM programme a little while ago and there was mention made of the likely candidates to take over when TM is binned. One of these is Dominic Raab, a very interesting and quite intelligent fellow. When there was the leadership 'scare' following his resignation, a couple of people I know in the central party organisation said that they thought he would be quite popular with many MPs and with the membership - although Boris would be the first choice of many.
I would be quite happy to see him as PM, sharing many views, particularly regarding the EU. But for a general discussion my personal preference is irrelevant. What surprised me, both listening to the BBC and speaking to my chums in London, was that Amber Rudd's name was absent. I don't like her, in fact I dislike her for many reasons - not just in re' Brexit - but, that aside, she is quite capable and I would have thought would be fairly popular with a large chunk of the party and the public.
Setting aside your own preference for a candidate, whether regarding Brexit or politics in general, who do you think will run? In no particular order I guess:
Amber Rudd, Boris Johnson, Dominic Raab, Sajid Javid, Johnny Mercer & Andrea Leadsom.
