Of the Tory leadership contenders Rory Stewart comes over as having by far the greatest intellectual heft and gravitas.

Statesmanlike qualities. I do not agree with him about rejecting a referendum (or getting on with Brexit), but his communication skills made me check Wiki
Here is his Wiki Page that makes very interesting reading.

His comms skills are far greater than I have seen from other candidates. Heavier weight intellectually. More likeable and trustworthy. Warmer. More human.

I would be watching this space.

3/. Worth remembering that, according to Lord Ashcroft’s Exit poll, of those who voted Tory 28% wanted to remain and only 17% would settle for No Deal. The rest wanted May’s Deal or some other deal.

I think he can speak to them.
4/. Even of those who voted for the BXP (that will have included a fair chunk of Tory voters - 67% coming from 2017 Tories) only 67% wanted No Deal.

Also, surely somewhere in the furthest recesses if their minds, even Tory No Dealers must see that this could end the Tories.
