Rumors Andy Street may get the selection. If he wants a seat, then he will win easily. The right wing hate him. |

As I said previously, a real dark horse for the leadership if he gets to parliament. |

And on the membership preferring somebody moderate to a swivel-eyed loon on the final ballot. |

A fine addition to the Conservative ranks. They would be foolish not to select him.

And after all that effort Nicola Richards has put in to get the selection....she will be gutted.

I don’t know the man, but if I were him I’d run a mile from this supposed “opportunity”. The likelihood is that he'd have a shell shocked, fissiparous rump around him. He’s not kitted out for the battle to bring his party to sense. He’s a businessman motivated by building solutions and management of people motivated around an essentially common purpose. He has little time for culture wars and arguments over concepts of “sovereignty” and he isn’t really a politician. Archie Norman’s painful experience is a warning.
While he may indeed be a model of a future Conservative leader he’d have to go through immense exasperation and frustration before the normal “natural party of government” and removing Labour mode kicks in. The party does adapt - its essential purpose is to hold power - but the false map that was encouraged by 2019 has to be destroyed and replaced by the construction of a more normal coalition. That should draw in both voters and more competent aspirants currently repelled by the nonsense of the last few years.

If the Tories end up two "sides" - right-wing Vs one-nation - the party might fall apart. Street would be a very good candidate for a moderate leader |

By 2029, Street will be too old for British politics and too young for US politics. |
