Sorry Dave Gove would make a horrible prime minister. His wife Sarah Vine is a journalist who works for the Daily Mail and apparently she calls the shots in the Gove household.
After watching Gove's treatment of Cameron & Johnson he doesn't have many friends left in the Tory party. He has only 8 MP's backing him, even Crabb has 22. No, Gove is finished.
Gove is an unequivocal slimey two-faced tosspot, with a cherry on top!
The Tories already have a bad reputation for shafting on the working & lower-middle classes; and simply detest those who don't work at all. And having Gove as their leader will just reinforce the fact that the Tories are malicious in their intent both with their own party and the country generally.

Yes, I suppose the next Prime Minister is going to be Theresa May. All we can do then is see which way she sets about leaving the EU, and with how much desire, and enthusiasm. I just hope for the best........

They're all slimy, two faced tosspots Zola........ it's just to what degree........
Gawd....... you couldn't make it up. The campaign manager of Boris Johnson's leadership bid, has said, Michael Gove would be a security risk as Prime Minister. He has an emotional need to gossip, particularly when drink is taken.
The knives are still stabbing.......... What a miserable bunch they all are.

How the hell do they expect to lead a country out of the EU and sonehow stand on it's own two feet when it can't even keep its own house in order!?

Yes, it's quite disturbing Zola. This country needs real leadership, and a sense of direction at this crucial time. What we are witnessing instead is pathetic.
There seems to have been a sharp shift in rhetoric against Theresa May over the weekend.
Looks like the situation seems very labile and we may see yet more political contingencies.
Quote:
SIR – The leading contender for the Tory party leadership is a Cabinet minister who was on the Remain side, who let more immigrants into the country in a year than any of her predecessors, and who helped toxify the Conservatives by referring to them as “the nasty party”. The fact that many of her supporters also hail from the Remain camp does not instil confidence.
I suspect that if she becomes party leader and prime minister, the main beneficiary will be Nigel Farage. Michael Wilkinson, London SW14
SIR – How many voters, Remain or Leave, thought that their cross with a blunt pencil 10 days ago would result in Theresa May being prime minister? Peter Boxall, Buckhurst Hill, Essex
SIR – The next prime minister must be one of the most rabidly pro-Brexiteers we can find, otherwise, whatever the outcome of the Brexit negotiations, people will always complain that they did not try hard enough. Richard H Edmondson, Knockholt, Kent
I think the concerns above are sound. If the people feel as if they have been betrayed by the government in power, in choosing a pro-remain advocate to head the Brexit process, all it will do is migrate power and political legitimacy from the Tories to UKIP.

Reason: Farage resignation
Yes, there are people like Bill Cash, and Iain Duncan Smith, who are very suspicious of attempts to give Theresa May the job as PM unopposed. They want to see a ballot among party supporters, with the name of a Brexit candidate on it.
Bill Cash said, "Theresa May has never been a Eurosceptic, it's as simple as that. After 30 years, I can tell the difference between Eurosceptic, and a Europhile.
Cash then said, "If May becomes PM without a vote, it would be defrauding the verdict of the British people."

This is the man I'd like to see as Prime Minister.
A committed Brexiteer, with the kind of stature and intelligence I'd expect of someone in the office.
Rees Mogg the supporter of zero hours contracts and the man who want's Somerset to have it's own time zone, 15 minutes behind London.
In parliament they call him the member for the early 20th century.
