There will be an election this time, and the entire party membership will select the leader from the shortlist of 2 presented them by the parliamentary party. Quite how you reason that this will result in a lessening of leadership authority in any circumstances is unclear to say the least; in this case, as the new Tory leader will be replacing one whose failure is historic in magnitude, your claim is just bizarre.
Leadership given by members of the Conservative Party does not equate to leadership as viewed by Conservative voters, let alone the wider electorate.

Is privatising the NHS a good idea?

You’ve understood me well, I thank you for that, but right now Corbyn (constrained by Parliament) is a better alternative than the Conservatives.
