They'll pitch Leadsome as the 'people's rebellion' candidate despite the fact she's a liar and a bigot. She'll win because the tory party is basically an association of old white people hankering after the last days of empire, and then she won't call an election until 2020 and will govern undemocratically and without mandate (didn't work out so well last time, did it?).


If that's all that happens if Leadsome is elected, I will count myself lucky. Given her blog posts from before the referendum was announced, we could find a significant rise in anti-gay attacks, just as we have against 'immigrants' (I know someone personally who was verbally assaulted for speaking French to her child), legislation favouring official marriage over heterosexual partnerships, bringing Christianity more to the fore in government (cf the US) and who know what else.
