Strongly being tipped as possibly next Tory leader. Does anyone know a person more toffee nosed? Proves imho that British are content to be part of an almost caste system. I think the guy's a ringer for Cuthbert Cringleworthy from the Beano

And he has a very young family of six children which he can spend more time with when it all inevitably goes wrong

The Tories have very few leaders

The most punchable voice in British politics.

He is almost a parody of himself. Like you know when you watch BBC Question Time and it goes to the crowd you just know the Tories from a mile away.
He is just the most obvious Tory ever.

Not in a million years will he be a Conservative party leader.

LCohen · July 07, 2017, 09:04:32 PM

He is a parody. He knows it and he plays to it. Would never vote Tory but he is harmless. Actually livens up the debate

Rossfan · July 07, 2017, 09:06:23 PM

How can anyone go about with a fkn name like that?

Eamonnca1 · July 07, 2017, 09:48:55 PM

He's actually a good debater. If I were to go up against him I'd like to make sure I had my ducks lined up. And the English would probably love him by and large. Deep down, I think they find a certain comfort in having a ruling class and snooty establishment calling the shots. It's by no accident that the only way Labour got elected in 1997 was by putting a lightweight Tory in charge.

His state home was refurbished to the tune of 7.6 million all payed for by the tax payer. A serious debater. Destroyed all comers on Question Time.

bennydorano · July 07, 2017, 10:17:50 PM

He's got an SS/ Himley vibe

It's not his home, it's owned by a conservation trust. On Facebook it's his home, but it's not in the real world.

I thought it was his wifes ancestral home.

Compared to listening to that fvckin moron Trump, I quite enjoy listening to JRM.....hes ver iltelligent, articulate and well read. I think he may also be a Catholic

Seemingly he has his own private bathroom at one of the posh london hotels
