Presuming BJ goes.

Andy Burnham if Labour and Penny Mordaunt if Tory.

Rory Stewart

It has to be someone who is squeaky clean and has the approval of the Vote Leave / Cummings bunch as rumours in the press have it that they're at the bottom of all the escalating leaks. And it has to be someone who has good knowledge and experience of Covid, Northern Ireland, fishing rights, immigrant, global warming, farming, the economic situation, the EU, Russia, .... Liz Truss and Dishy Rishi are the only two I can think of who come anywhere near, and we don't know what Dom has on them. Yet.

I agree with Rosie51 about that army guy. Know who you mean but I can't remember his name either!!

Andy Burnham for sure...

I hadn’t read your post in full before I thought of Andy Burnham, and see that you got there first, Molly!
Keep Angela Rayner as Deputy.

Cannot think of a single Tory. I liked Mrs May to be honest.

I haven’t got the foggiest what’s going on with the LibDems.
I lost patience with them with the trans business.
Greenies have gone quiet too.

Can't remember his name and can't be bothered to google, but that army guy that resigned, He had principles. Other than him could anyone be worse than Boris ( well other than Rees-Mogg)? struggling even with the other parties, Starmer isn't the worst but really.......it's a very vanilla spectrum at the moment.

I want someone with a bit of fire in their belly for fighting the many wrongs in this country at present. KS certainly doesn't come over as having that. Can't think of a single person in C party but I don't know many of them nowadays.

From the Conservative party Tom Tugendhat. Labour. Keir Starmer. He’s the party leader, Labour are leading in the polls and why have a Labour leadership contest now? I can’t think of a more decent person to be PM and what we need now is a bit of decency.
