We would actually vote Tory if he was elected. We first noticed him when he made a fascinating programme on Laurence of Arabia but his experience and recognition abroad seems to be little recognised in this country. There is an interesting article in the Guardian today which I would love to have linked but stupidly I don’t know how to do it.
However, am interested in how many of you have noticed him and would support him if given the chance.

Have you seen his voting record?

He comes across as quite nice, his voting record suggests otherwise.

I was a child of thatcher too. I don’t recognise labour and haven’t for some time now. It was ‘for all’ and now it is not.

My non-existent vote would also not go to labour any time soon. Fuckers. I voted for Blair in my first general election - that worked out fab

I can say never. Never ever. I was a child of thatcher. Between that austerity, and the shitfest that is Brexit they would never get my vote. Ever.

Also, I left the UK 15 years ago last month so am no longer entitled to vote

Never say never (or ever).

I grew up in a very labour family - but wouldn’t touch them with a bargelole these days. My dad was involved in the local party and he would have really hated what they are now.

I'd never vote Tory. Ever.

But, yes, he seems intelligent, thoughtful, balanced and sane. The best of a bad bunch by far. As such I suspect he has little chance.
