I'd like Rishi ...... but that must be the bigoted racist in me....
So come on, pick Boris's successor.

Nope, I spot a stupid headline and make a relevant comment...
I note that you haven't similarly called out those who 'picked' a cat...
Why is that?
Oh that's right, you are as always in creepy stalker mode!
Ex chair of the ERG.
One money man in one house and another in the other ??? Suspect not but you might be correct.
They'd be arguing who ruled the money but in real terms advisors figure a lot.
Never heard of the bloke
LOL One it can't be this time
On 1 June, Kenneth Clarke was announced as one of Stewart's MP backers, with other supporters including David Lidington, David Gauke, Nicholas Soames, Tobias Ellwood, Gillian Keegan and Victoria Prentis.[150] Against expectations, on 13 June he made it through the first parliamentary ballot, gaining 19 votes, two more than the elimination threshold.[151] On 16 June, he appeared, as one of the six remaining candidates, in a televised debate on Channel 4.[152] He was widely judged to have won the debate, with Michael Deacon writing in The Daily Telegraph that "If you were to judge it by the response of the studio audience, Channel 4's debate had only one winner. Rory Stewart got more rounds of applause than any other candidate – and, at the end, when each took turns to sum up, he was the only candidate to get a round of applause at all".[153]
On 18 June 2019, he also made it through the second parliamentary ballot, with 37 votes from a threshold of 33, surpassing Home Secretary Sajid Javid by four votes; however, following a lacklustre performance in that evening's BBC debate, he polled just 27 votes in the next day's ballot and was eliminated as the last-placed candidate.[154][155] It was revealed on the same day that Stewart was in talks with Michael Gove to stop Boris Johnson becoming Prime Minister.[156] Although, in his podcast, with co-host Alastair Campbell, Stewart claimed that Gove was intentionally wasting his time to better position Boris Johnson in the leadership race
On 3 September 2019, Stewart and 20 other Conservative MPs voted in favour of MPs taking control of the order paper, as the first step to table a bill to stop a no-deal Brexit, in the process rebelling against the Government Whip.[158] It had been widely reported in the media that any such action would lead to a withdrawal of the Conservative whip, and all 21 were told that they had lost it,[159] expelling them as Conservative MPs and requiring them to sit as independents.[160][161] If they should decide to run for re-election in a future election, the party would block their selection as Conservative candidates.[162] Stewart stated that he was informed of this decision by text message, while collecting his GQ Politician of the Year Award.

Who says you need to have heard about anybody who gets the job. Some think it will be an unknown. The current cabinet have a tarnished aspect as have consistently backed Borish.
