The wisest.

We can dream I suppose.

They would all have a psychological profile done for starters. Then they would have to sit all of the KS2 SATS tests and any not able to reach the required standard would be consigned to oblivion.
Those left in the race would then be told that their income would be the basic living wage, no expenses of course.
In my dreams, in my dreams.....?

Then one steps down, no vote required and voila, an unelected leader.
Elected as an MP yes, but not as party leader.

The conservative MP's whittle down the number to two before the members have a vote.

Well I'm just thankful I'm not having to 'choose' in the USA at the moment.
Maybe picked a name out of a very large hat would work wink

If you are Labour you need 2 elections (one isn't enough). If you are UKIP a bit of fisticuffs seems in order. The Conservatives do it quietly (who knows what has gone on behind the scenes). Any ideas for other ways to choose party leaders. I'm thinking the balloon game might be fun (with a real balloon of course)
