21% of Tory MPs are female.
It's quite obvious women won't make the shortlist.

It’s only a week or so since someone started a thread here claiming that Teresa May had been given the premiership since no man wanted it.

Whatever. Whoever wins will get a moment in the spotlight but Brexit will destroy their long term career. It’s the political equivalent of shifting carbon from the roof of Chernobyl. Somebody has to do it but thank fuck it isn’t me.

I'm not disappointed.

Andrea Leadsome and Esther McVey?

They geniuely the weakest two candidates in a field of candidates where competence is measured merely in how teflon you are and how much you are prepared to lie your head off. And a poor understanding of geography is essential.

I'm very surprised about Esther Mcvey.

When May first stepped down I had Mcvey tipped as a very strong replacement.

Kind of sad she's gone so early.

I also have to say I'm very surprised at the support I see for Rory Stewart on here. He's a complete nothing. I've yet to hear a definitive or complete answer he'd given to any question, ever.
It'd be like another Corbyn shivers down my spine
I'm glad he only just got through this round. He'll be gone the next.

Well given who the 2 female candidates were, in pleased that they’ve both gone. Not that the male candidates are any less loathsome.

And yes, our local, Marky Mark! Hapless!
