Who Will Be The Next Tory Leader ?

[Bobsy]

My guess ? A Public School boy !!

[Svejk]

Unlike the previous 5, you mean?

[Gromit]

I doubt it. What would his teachers say?

It could be an ex-public school boy though.

[janbee]

Miss Piggy ? Kevin Bacon? John Hamm?

whilst I have no aspirations in that area, for ones self , I would, if my colleagues where of sufficient enthusiasm, allow my name to go forward.

[Noe-schitt]

Who would have thought before 2005 that David Cameron would become leader of the Conservatives and who would have thought before this year that Jeremy Corbyn would be leader of Labour so it could be anyone

... or even a girl ?? ?

I clicked on this thread just to suggest T T T

But I've been beaten to it.

It has to be May or Johnston, so that we can have Tezza or Bozza v Jezza.

How are people who did not go to public school still allowed to continue with this disdainful, snobbish prejudice against people who did?

"Oh, you clearly can't understand what people need, because you went to the wrong school."

"Oh, you clearly have no idea how to deal with people, because you went to the wrong school."

"Oh, you are clearly unsuitable to be a leader, because you went to a private school."

Can you even start to imagine the uproar there would be if it was the other way round?

MPs who were not privately educated seem to get away with this pompous, snobbish "We know better than you" attitude ... merely because of where some other MPs went to school.

an ex St. Juliana's Convent School for Girls, a Roman Catholic independent school in Begbroke, which closed in 1984 and then, at the age of 13, she won a place at the former Holton Park Girls' Grammar School in Wheatley, Oxfordshire.......

I agree. i also remember the the Labour leader, Harold Wilson, saying, "Grammar schools will be abolished over my dead body!"

[ladybirder]

Dead right JJ. It happens all the time on here and in some newspapers. Yes there would be uproar if it was the other way round. Perhaps it's jealousy but I doubt it.

[Hopkirk]

I think it's a pity Alan Johnson didn't become Labour leader, as some suggested.

We could then have had Boris in for the Tories and it would have been Johnson v Johnson.

I just need a Chinese out....whatver she looks like?
