I agree!
But then I'm not a fan of May either, who appears to be the clear front runner in all this.
I can't understand why everyone is so keen to dismiss Stephen Crabb. He's standing at a mere 7% support at the moment and for me, at this time, with everything as it is, I think he's got all the credentials to be the perfect candidate. Cometh the hour, cometh the man ... as they say ... and maybe, just maybe he could be the man to take us gently through the shitstorm.
Sometimes you need a particular person to do a particular job for a particular time, and for me, out of all of them, he could be it. They don't have to be larger than life, centre stage characters, lauded, applauded, hated, derided, overly opinionated and closed minded.
The last thing the country needs right now is a tub thumping hard liner who is going to get everyone's backs up. I'm a LEAVE voter but we cannot simply ride roughshod over the views of almost half the country who didn't vote that way, and the fact that Crabb was a remainer, doesn't bother me in the slightest. He would still get my vote for exactly that reason.
It needs a conciliator, someone who at least stands a chance of bringing people together, not further alienating those who are already alienated - here in all corners of the UK, and in our negotiations with those across the channel.
Stephen Crabb is a very, very interesting politician and I really think the Tories shouldn't be so keen to dismiss him as a viable candidate. Younger yes, but not inexperienced and sometimes we need to look beyond the obvious. This guy ticks a lot of boxes if only they would see it.
(my thoughts only and no wish to get into a slanging match with anyone).
