David Cameron resigns, who is the next prime minister?

HHlimbo. Can you tell me why Cleggers has such red rimmed eyes? Does he have enough sleep, or is he worrying about the untold damage he has done to his party? If Cameron and Clegg were at the same public school together Clegg would have surely been his fag? A nice enough man, but comes over as very weak.

HHLimbo · 28/07/2011 00:23

ironman - easy on the exclamation marks!

Yes Cleggy will be PM, in the interim until the tories sort themselves out. Which will never happen.
WAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAA

ironman · 27/07/2011 20:10

Cleggy won't be Priminister either! He looks like he's having a breakdown!

ironman · 27/07/2011 20:07

Why would he resign? Ed Miliband has about enough chance of being Priminster as I have of flying to the moon! The mans a complete robot!

The tory party would collapse. So many of them embroilled in this.

I would laugh out loud.

The 'vested interests' propaganda machine would go into overdrive - but Murdoch will have been taken out of the picture Hahaha.

My dh says it wouldn't be Cleggy, that the coalition would just collapse

The DEPUTY prime minister of course!

It would be such beautiful poetic justice!

woollyideas · 20/07/2011 18:14

Tony Benn.

We need a woman to sort this mess out for sure. Why dont more women go into politics?
I guess they are too ethical not rubber faced enough.:0

I reckon Hague. I feel sorry for him really about his time as leader and I think had timing been different (and TB not so charismatic) he'd have done well.

Gove is ridiculed by far too many and speaks without thinking.

breadandbutterfly · 19/07/2011 08:45

Another one who'll leave the country if it's Osborne.

Fact is, the whole bloody Tory frontbench are pygmies.

I'd have said Ken Clarke, the only Tory I didn't mind, till he made those stupid comments re rape. Or William Hague is OK. Gove - nooooo.

Of course it could be Clegg. Ha ha ha. As he's so clearly looking like leadership material. Not.

roundtable · 18/07/2011 22:55

John Prescott...ha ha, he's as mad as a hatter.

I'd start watching prime minister's questions if I could watch him shouting, belly aching and having a go at anyone who dared say anything he didn't like!

Occasionally fisticuffs in the houses of parliament would be quite entertaining too!

pengymum · 18/07/2011 22:44

Oh I love Boris - as a comedian not a politician! I will watch anything he appears in, he is hilarious!
But he's also got a track record for employing dodgy characters so don't think he would be a good choice to follow smarmy Cameron.

crazynanna · 18/07/2011 22:38

So true I had to say it twice

crazynanna · 18/07/2011 22:37

Nope,he's still a prick.

You are SUCH a comedian claig.

claig · 18/07/2011 22:32

He is the nightmare of the Labour Lilliputians. They tremble at his wit. His sagacity ties them in knots and exposes their loquacious Labour lies.

crazynanna · 18/07/2011 22:28

No Claig,the fact that Boris is a prick rules him out

claig · 18/07/2011 22:27

There is one towering figure who stands head and shoulders above the pigmies on the Labour front bench, and that is Boris Johnson. Could he become the next PM or does the fact that he is London Mayor rule him out?

claig · 18/07/2011 22:20

It is interesting that he said he was not interested in knighthoods or Lordships etc. He saw those as selling out to the establishment. He claimed he wanted independence. He is or was a world player. They called him Sir to his face, as they queued up to greet him at his parties. That was good enough for him.
