If Amber Rudd had a safe seat instead of a very slim marginal,she would be the front runner to succeed.
She would be good, but unfortunately she is a remainer, so more likely to be burned at the stake as a heretic.

A week is a long time in politics....Universal Credit claimants epitomise the 'just about managing' - often in poorly-paid work, usually raising a family whilst in rented accommodation, and always at a disadvantage in dealing with officialdom.
The UC roll-out has run into practical problems (poor admin, delays in payment, refusal to pay landlords direct, insistence on on-line operation, etc) that have created quite severe hardship in many instances. It is impossible for poor people to carry on paying their rent, and buy their groceries, whilst they wait six weeks or more for their claim.
Charging them 55p/minute while they waited to discuss their problems was never going to play well - although the Government has now been obliged to abandon the wheeze, the damage has already been done.
To add injury to insult, Jeremy Corbyn has today won his first (technical) Parliamentary victory over the issue.
In fairness to Theresa May - who invented the JAM demographic - she is making him look very competent these days: the Tories have the look of a party that no longer cares about those who support this country by their minimum wage labour.
This cannot end well.
