The perception isn't great (shades of Nero fiddles) in reality they should and will be contactable, it's not as if a physical presence is required.....

Re: Updated: Boris resigns as party leader

I wonder if the Tories will look to change the rules in future so that leadership elections whilst in Government are limited to the Parliamentary Party. This summer of having the candidates appeal to this very narrow, very unrepresentative, electorate has had a few damaging moments for them.

I think limiting it to the MPs only would be quicker and you can argue they have a wider mandate given they represent a lot more people. They are the MPs the wider public elected into Government, they can claim to therefore have more right to choose who the PM is than a bunch of randoms.

The other one is no better with her regional pay boards, I don't get the crass incompetence of it all, anyone with anything about them would make absolute mincemeat out of them, still apparently we get the politicians we deserve, almost makes you long for the heady days of Blair, Brown and Cameron don't it, no not really
