Who do you think should be the next Tory leader?

It'll be either David Davis or David Cameron. Davis is more experienced and older, Cameron is younger and a little more charismatic, in my opinion (charisma shouldn't matter in politics, but it sadly does).

Personally, I'd rather see David Davis as the new leader. I feel he can connect to all people, given his life experiences. He was born to a single mother, he's tasted failure, he's done regular jobs, had a stint in the Territorial SAS, and I just feel he can connect to people on issues that matter.

David Cameron is charismatic, and talks a good fight, but he lacks experience. He'd probably make a good future Tory leader, but for now, I'd rather see David Davis as Tory leader.

Correct. They're all stiffs who have speeches written for them. But still, you have to sometimes choose the best option out of a bad lot.

David Cameron. The only person who makes me think about voting conservative. David Davis pushes me further into hate for the tory party.

I 100% think Cameron will win

It's certainly looking that way isn't it? Whoever wins, I hope he remains party leader for a long time, because quite frankly, if he doesn't, then the Tory Party is going to self-destruct. You can only have so many leadership contests.

In that case i hope the leader is booted out in a few months. Then the Tory party WILL self-destruct.

Well, some would argue they're not an opposition.

Right now, it's the media who are the true opposition, in my opinion. The Tories and Lib Dems certainly aren't.

If the Tories do self-destruct, I shall write a book...

The Self-Destruction of the Conservative Party
