I’ll start

Jeremy Hunt, famously called something different by Jim Naughtie and Andrew Marr on the same day

After his fabulous term in health,

Worryingly, junior doctors in the UK are increasingly leaving the NHS before their training is complete.

1 In 2011, when preliminary career-destination surveys were first conducted, 71.3% of F2 doctors (F2 doctors = Foundation Year 2 doctors = PGY2 doctor/residents) progressed into specialty training posts. By 2016 this had dropped to 50.4% and the latest figures in 2019 show the number is now only 37.7%.

2 A recent report released by the General Medical Council (GMC) reflects the growing culture of leaving NHS positions both across the specialties and across the generations.

3 Doctors are increasingly moving to work overseas as evidenced in the latest UK Foundation report.

I predict disappointment.

Thatcher is long dead. And her children never grew up.

I think Hunt's chances are pretty slim.

Good brain, if incredibly slimy and a remainer of course.

He has a dislikeable personality which would harm the Tories in any GE in my view.

Intellectually Gove is a major plus and someone you'd want in your cabinet. Not so sure you'd want him leading but hey....I was wrong about Johnson.

Ben Wallace has ruled himself out. First impression is this could be between Tugendhat and Penny Mordaunt.

His ex wife wasn't too impressed either....and his nightclub dancing makes Dad dancing look Travolta standard.

You could exhume her, strap her to the front bench, like El Cid, and she would still do a better job than most of those standing.

I did chuckle when a friend sent me a message saying "choosing the next Tory leader is a bit like choosing which toilet to use on day 3 at Glastonbury".

The Mordaunt Tugendhat sounds like a chapter from Lord of the Rings.
