Can someone please put a sock in that Laura Lightweight who has all of the gravitas of a slow punctured beachball.
Anticipating who will end up being next tory leader is a bit like choosing between toothache or haemorrhoids.

Presumably you'll never vote for them, so it's pretty irrelevant.
Much the same as I feel about the Lib Dems now Vince the Cable has also announced he's resigning/standing down...although it does feel a little strange that he's announced that before the results come out on Sunday...

He said he was going to stand down back at the Lib Dem conference, although he only specified summer. Still, didn’t need as much persuasion as someone...

Really good planning by the Lib Dems, announce the timetable for their leadership election on the same day that the PM resigns and then the contest will run in parallel and the winner announced around the same time.

Oh, and now Chuka Umunna has come to the belated recognition that launching yet another Remain party is just adding to a crowded field:

Apart from the fact that whichever genius they pick will be running the country. Someone like lying philanderer Bojo, or that walking panic-attack Dominic Raab, or Gove, Leadsom, Mordaunt, McVey... what a choice!
Watching them squirm trying to deliver the hard-brexit they'll have to promise as they all lurch to the right will be the only small pleasure I'll get from this. Pushing out that donkey sized turd is going to be a very painful job for them.

You could level that statement at every single political party, depending on your own level of bias. You really should learn to relax a bit more, it'll do your blood pressure the world of good.

Well, crap!
Everything changed and nothing changed at all!
Labour hammered for trying to be wet and dry at the same time, Tories destroyed for their incompetence, Change UK don’t exist, Brexit Party = NUKIP, Lib Dem & Green Remain surge...
Country still split down the middle, 50-50.
Swearing at each other and holing up in our respective bunkers isn’t going to solve jack. We need to take another shot at persuading the country to our respective positions, and yes, another referendum to break the deadlock, heck this time with compulsory voting to get a definitive answer, even if it’s by just one vote.

I think we'll probably have to let whichever, probably more Brexity, twat gets into No 10 try and fail to get a better agreement then take a no deal or remain to another referendum.
They still haven't enough parliamentary time to pass the legislation necessary to leave on Oct 31st anyway.
