I think it'll be very interesting where the Tories go from here. Whilst I have never, and likely will never, vote for them, a weak opposition isn't of benefit to the country in my view
So my question to the Tory voters/people of the right of centre on here- where would you like to see them go from here?
So much of the media noise is about Reform, so they must be tempted to select one of their remaining far-right MPs as leader and make a lurch to the right in a bit to win back a lot of those votes. Similarly, they lost a lot of votes, and a HELL of a lot of seats to the centre and towards the left- particularly the Lib Dems but also Labour and even two to the Greens! So it could be a case of selecting a more stable moderate candidate, such as Jeremy Hunt, in a bid to hoover up lib dem/labour votes at the next election
Or the third option- do a deal with the devil and officially or unofficially merge with Reform and solidify the right wing vote
Where they can't stay is where they are- not really appealing to anyone
