Who will replace May?

Ken Clarke; the best PM the Conservative party never had. I know it's not going to happen and I'm delirious from lack of sleep....it would be funny if it was Hammond after the way that May has treated him.Boris's majority has been halved [albeit still being comfortable].

Can someone explain to me how having the DUP effectively running the country has anything to do with uniting the country, the will of the people and strong and stable leadership?

McDonnell
" press lacks in generosity towards us"

I could think of stronger wordd

National unity to see us through Brexit

The best way forward

We have all just been royally f***ed haven't we? We should rise up, march on Downing Street and tell the lot of them to form a government of national unity and that we don't want another bloody election or the DUP calling the shots.

There isnt much choice is there, if we accept that the uk has rejected hard brexit that would surely not allow any brexiter as leader? They will never wash at another election

Maybe Jalima could predict the outcome, having been so right about a hung parliament!

Rudd would be no good - she could well lose her seat in the next general election, which some are predicting will be soon

They will need a caretaker - Hammond?

That's true Maizie but they need a leader whatever.

There's no saying that the next tory leader will be PM, whitewave, is there?

Whoever gets it it's a poisoned chalice.

Surely the tories have better people than Rudd (how many recounts did it take for her to scrape back in?), Bojo or Gove - the names I saw bandied about during the night.

He cant possibly be the next PM - look at the utter embarrasment he has made as FS

No, she just made it after 5 recounts. I don't think Boris will get it.

I think she is toast. I expect Boris will go for it.

I thought Rudd was out?
