I voted IDS. Had to be him or WH. Both failed Tory leaders of course because people rank charisma above sense.

William Hague was a disaster as Foreign Secretary. Remember all the mixed messages and confusion emanating from his department during the Libya conflict?

The Scottish National party has withdrawn a £1m fundraising appeal to help fight a second Scottish independence referendum, the Herald has reported, after its heavy election defeats on Friday.
The SNP launched the ref.scot campaign when Nicola Sturgeon, the first minister and SNP leader, launched her quest for a second independence vote by spring 2019. That goal has now been dropped, and Sturgeon admitted on Friday she had to re-evaluate her referendum strategy after the loss of 21 SNP seats in the general election.
The SNP’s remaining 35 MPs have to elect a new Westminster leader after Angus Robertson, who previously held the role, lost his Moray seat to the Tories.
With that vote taking place tomorrow, four MPs have put their names forward: Drew Hendry, the former leader of Highland council; Ian Blackford, a former SNP party treasurer; Joanna Cherry QC, an advocate; and Tommy Sheppard, a former comedy club director and previously deputy leader of Hackney council’s Labour group.
Robertson remains the SNP’s deputy leader despite losing his seat. The party’s rules only require the deputy leader to be an party member.
The disappearance of the fundraising appeal, which had raised £482,000 with 10 days of its 100-day operation still to go, was first spotted by the Times reporter Daniel Sanderson on Friday morning.His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...Comment

Lord Buckethead would be the obvious candidate to me. He has greater personal popularity than all mentioned in the poll, and better policies to boot (e.g. legalise the hunting of fox-hunters).Comment

I would vote BoJo any day, because with him in the driving seat the current train crash approach would be exponentially magnified and consequently derailing Brexit
So for remainers, BoJo is the best bet
