Tony Blair had charisma, look how that worked, intially. Jeremy Corbyn had no charisma and plenty of charisn'tma. A latter-day Michael Foot, without the integrity. Boris had.... er.......... well... um.......... he was everybody's fool, and we all have the fool in us, which explained his rise to inadequacy. Nick Clegg is defending Fakebook against legitimate accusations of data collection etc etc etc. Theresa May was a stalking horse for Boris Liz Truss - yea! Quite! Studied economics at Uni. Yea! Quite! Starmer is a safe pair of hands, but TBH his rise to N? 10 will be driven by the vacuum left by the current incumbents. And we do need a safe pair of hands right now. John Major was a good chairman apparently. And if you followed the Leveson Inquiry it showed he lost his election because he refused to be "quid pro quo"'d by Merdoch. Say what you like about his politics, but the man had some integrity. (not that it will stop the carping, driven purely by politics). He also stood up against Thatcher and won one General Election. Grey power? No I don't have favourites, whatever biases, I have they are visible to me when I look at politics E&OE
