impartial. I suggest instead of paucity you use the word plethora. The reason why the discussion has focussed on BJ is obvious, he is the one who has been the leader in the polls and in the party, and the media has therefore focused on him. I think you’ll find there was quite a discussion on the merits of Stewart, Gove etc early on before they got knocked out. Hunt is the Ken doll with the air steward look that in many ways is the perfect Tory. Anyone who has worked in the health service hates him, he forgot his wife’s nationality, he is very wealthy etc, other than that he is mr bland. If Hunt was the front runner he’d get more of the gossip. This is not being shallow, it is a reaction to the information we have. Most of us aren’t voting for either of them anyway, so it’s only a discussion of the merits or otherwise of the person who looks likely to be our next pm whether we like it or not.
