To have a crush on Rory Stewart?

There's something about him, I know he has strange teeth in a way but I like his chiselled cheeks and there's some kind of sex appeal for sure. Anyone else?

Intelligent, articulate, accomplished. Ooft.

NicoAndTheNiners · 29/05/2019 17:49

So what's his stance on Brexit and no deal?

PicsInRed · 29/05/2019 17:52

Cartoonists will love him.
Aside from that, something about him is incredibly untrustworthy. He's holding a lot of himself back and most of what he's holding back isn't what the electorate want.

An interviewer the other day attempted to entrap asked him a question about whether something was similar to the Classics. Stewart was about to go into a an enthusiastic missive about it then caught himself. He is far too cliche Eton for the present mood and, as the saying goes, this dog just won't hunt.

NicoAndTheNiners · 29/05/2019 17:53

Oh dear, just reading his voting record. He's very right wing isn't he? No surprise I guess if he's a Tory.

NicoAndTheNiners · 29/05/2019 17:55

He wants to sell off U.K. forests, votes against climate saving measures, doesn't want EU nationals already here to be allowed to stay after Brexit, voted for bedroom tax, lowering benefits, etc.

The amount of people who are wooed by accents like his never fails to astound me.

There is something very untrustworthy about him. Over the past few months he's been wheeled out time and again to trot out the party line like an obedient dog and I knew he was gearing up for something like this. He's been painting a picture of himself as a reasonable guy and he's really not.

GettingHotInHere · 29/05/2019 18:02

@Theworldisfullofgs that's a very accurate description!

I didn't know he had given a speech about hedgehogs- that's amazing. I love him.

I know this is absolutely terrible, but I'd ride Tommy Sheridan into next week and back again

velveteenwabbit · 29/05/2019 18:11

He's definitely shaggable haven't had a chance to get a good view of his physique yet, perhaps a bit too delicate, maybe he will do us the joy of taking his jacket off next time he's on QT so I can make a true assessment.

velveteenwabbit · 29/05/2019 18:13

@nelsonmuntzslingshot Raab also has his appeal but in a more rough around the edges kind of way. I think Rory would bring you egg and soldiers in bed in the morning and then drive you out to an English Heritage property for a nice day out.

EllebellyBeeblebrox · 29/05/2019 18:14

Bleugh. To each his own though, I've got a thing for Bercow Blush

YoThePussy · 29/05/2019 18:15

I think Rory is on Question Time tomorrow. Something to stay awake for?

crazyasafox · 29/05/2019 18:18

Does nothing for me.

He looks like Eddie Redmayne

Who also does nothing for me.

BentBastard · 29/05/2019 18:19

This guy???

Pigachu · 29/05/2019 18:23

He's all yours op Grin

PuppyMonkey · 29/05/2019 18:23

Confused I think ROD Stewart has more sex appeal on balance.

NicoAndTheNiners · 29/05/2019 18:25

I assume his speech was about protecting hedgehogs but I'm beginning to worry it was about making it legal to hunt them with hounds! Grin

wigglybeezer · 29/05/2019 18:32

He's actually Scottish but is so posh you can't tell!

MenuPlant · 29/05/2019 18:36

'He manages the neat trick of looking 12 and 55 at the same time.'

Yes.

In our house he is that old young tory bloke.

S0CKS · 29/05/2019 19:26

Are you quite well OP?

Serin · 29/05/2019 19:34

God no.
Have to say Rod Stewart in his day had something though.
Quite fancy Andy Burnham.......

Cleebope2 · 29/05/2019 19:42

I totally get you here. Rory is the only one of the leadership candidates that I can bear to look at or listen to. I think he’s an interesting man and probably attractive in bed. My guilty crush however is Raab who is a bastard but a really sexy bastard.

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 29/05/2019 19:59

So what's his stance on Brexit and no deal?
Opposed to No Deal, wants a ‘Citizens’ Assembley’ to discuss and break the deadlock over Brexit (like Ireland had for the Abortion referendum).

CadburysTastesVileNow · 29/05/2019 20:02

He has an eighteenth century face.
