Who should win the Tory leadership contest based on sheer good looks?

[gryilla]

The obvious candidate is Jacob Rees-Mogg but since I suspect he's unlikely to stand, who else should I have my eye on?

Rishi Sunak all the way (you probably guessed that though from my username). He’s my absolute number 1 crush.

His height wouldn’t be a barrier to the things us 2 would be getting up to.

Jeremy Hunt apparently dances a mean salsa which is quite attractive.

I don't get the Rishi love.

Forced to snog one at the illegal party, I'd pick Tom Tugendhat.

Michael 😍

Nobody else compares.

James looks like a friendly headteacher at a primary school. Perfect fit really

Penny Mordaunt is the most conventionally attractive

Sunak is too short

Jacob Rees Mogg is possibly the most unattractive person in the whole party

John Major has aged well

JRM but only because he reminds me of a RL Ex, NOT his 'personality'...
Rory Stewart, definitely ...
Rishi will do well in Leadership battle probably.

Sunak, cute as a button and he has a twinkle.

!!!!!

I get why you might like Rory Stewart’s chat, brains, wit, integrity …. but nobody, not even his mother could possibly say he he would win anything on sheer good looks.

Plus of course he isn’t an MP or a candidate

Tom Tugendhat. But if he was in the running I'd choose William Hague. 🤫

startled llama?!?

Steve Baker looks like a former RAF engineer, you know how some peoples looks suit their job, his totally do.

But I vote for Larry personally

Now I;ve read that I can't unsee him as a startled llama

Purely aesthetically: Esther McVey. Maybe Kwasi Kwertung.

In reality, I'll settle for consistently well and appropriately dressed/groomed and conscious of not making ridic faces on camera. (Unfortunately this tends to put women at a disadvantage, as there are more options so more scrutiny, plus sexist press.)

Braverman, Javid, Sunak, Truss, Wallace, Zahawi are all OK.
Patel is OK except the smirking.
Shapps is another bacon sandwichgate waiting to happen.
Gove is Gove is Gove.

Hunt looks like a tailor's dummy in pics/video, better in person.
Mordant's skivvies pics are out there forever.

Jezza Hunt.

I blame the menopause but he always looks to me like he has a nice collection of jumpers, smells nice and does a mean barbecue when the neighbours pop round.

In the last leadership election when they were all out running Jeremy Hunt went jogging in the same outfit that the bastard who pushed the woman under a bus on Putney Bridge wore. In my head he is forever linked to the image of that poor woman as the bus swerved. Different haircut but similar jawline and I can't I see the resemblance.

That's 'I can't unsee the resemblance'

'Very disappointed my guilty crush Dominick Raab isn’t standing.'

I agree that Raab is the hottest, although is possibly also a psychopath. So yeah, there's that

Priti Patel is gorgeous on the outside, totally rotten on the inside

Jacob RM and Rory Stewart - dear god, have a word with yourselves 🤢

Patel and Braverman are both attractive women, but something horrible happens when they smile. The opposite is true for most people!

I can see the JRM thing. I love him as a comedy character, I could listen to his turn of phrase all day, it's just such a shame that what he says matters!

She really isn't. When you spend any time with her you see the ordinariness and the downturned mouth, over plucked eyebrows, poorly applied makeup. She is also short and has no presence/charisma (which is why she has to bully)

Hunt, Sunak or Patel are objectively the best looking. Don't trust any of them to run the country though

My phone doesn't have an anti-evil filter so they all look pretty ugly to me.

Priti is gorgeous. But I would love to send her the name of a good tailor!

Could you send Rishi one too? His suits must cost a fortune but his trousers always look too short.

This is the most entertaining (and bizarre) thread I read for ages!

My vote goes to Larry.
