Well most of the ones I know are voting May over Leadsom. But who knows what the further UKIP forces will do.
May comes across as the same as Cameron - i.e. Continuity of the same old policies (except EU). Lead some comes across as more amiable and likeable. I still think it will be closer than the press think.
My personal opinion is that May doesn't have a mandate to be PM due to her being a Remain campaigner.I totally agree on both observations. Most of the membership wanted to Leave, will they send another stinging rebuke to Parliament and bring in Leadsom? Very possibly.

I abstained in the referendum due to indecision and unsure of the consequences either way.As a Remainer that's my biggest concern and why I'm more inclined to vote Leadsom, but it's not settled for me yet.

It's a bit like asking "Would I prefer to be killed by a machine gun or by heavy artillery"?
Both far right-wing Tories, which is not my thing at all; I suppose that at least May has experience in Government at a senior level and opposed leaving the EU. So far as I can tell, Leadsome has limited experience of Government, as a junior minister, and a cv that she now admits has been sexed up in various ways.
Neither of them inspire the slightest confidence in me, although I suppose they both have the saving grace of being neither Boris Johnson nor Michael Gove .....
If it's not May, then we are going to be in an even bigger mess than we are already
My wife has an Irish passport, and if a Brexit lunatic becomes PM I will be claiming Irish citizenship as well.
I'm glad Boris Johnson isn't in it. I saw through him years ago, he is an opportunist and just went with where the wind was blowing to sneak into being PM. He is only a backbencher and has zero experience in government or even being a junior minister and thought he would be terrible for the country.I watched Leadsom's interview on BBC and I recall her standing by her CV.
Totally agree in your Boris and Gove observation.

Leadsom, and plan for an early general election.
I know Leadsom stands by her CV, but I also know rather more than I should about some of the background relating to her CV and that's why I am rather unimpressed with the whole thing.
The reality is if either of them had been leader of the Tories at the last election, we would more than likely have had a hung parliament.
There' s an Idea, I'll bring the rope!The reality is if either of them had been leader of the Tories at the last election, we would more than likely have had a hung parliament.
There won't be a General election with such a small majority for the Tories in 2015.I know Leadsom stands by her CV, but I also know rather more than I should about some of the background relating to her CV and that's why I am rather unimpressed with the whole thing.
