Conservative Leadership Contest

I'm wondering if that's why Teresa May can't give assurances to EU's citizens living in the UK, as she's long since wanted to get rid of the crooks who are now residing in our prisons.
And the guys with the criminal records will probably include Westlife

They keep that quiet.

And our penal system does have a reputation for being soft.

I was watching 'Life inside Jail - Hell on earth' on itv, American criminals are sent to prison even before they go to court, ALL of them, time varies depending on bail and so on, but not a soft open prison but a complete hardline one.

May comes first getting half the vote
Leadstrom 2nd
Gove 3rd
Crabb 4th
Liam Fox last and so is eliminated

just as they predicted I think I personally think May will find it a very tough role to do

Stephen Crabb has withdrawn from the contest.

Just Backed Teresa May as well

Well that happened quick, so when are these next votes? and if it looks like it's this May woman she could be the next leader before the end of July; if so, how would Cameroon stay till october?

Next vote is thursday gove will prob be eliminated unless he can stab someone in the back

Well whatever happens we'll probably get Thatcher Mk 2 with her. I can our Brexit becoming a very messy negotiation with her in charge

He probably would have to make the handover to her at the party conference anyway. I don't know if the Tory membership still have a vote like Labour's membership will have a vote on their new leader. and I don't think UKIP will survive without Farage at the helm I think if anything he saw the referendum as a victory for UKIP, maybe it was in a way, but I can't see him lending hand to the negotiations when they start I just think May will not have the courage to invoke article 50 as I think she didn't vote to leave. I think she would be the sort who would not take the referendum result as it stood, and think 'Well I don't think it was a clear cut enough result so let's stay in Europe'
