Personally i think all the hype around Boris is overblown.
That's probably true, Boris has as many enemies in the Parliamentary Tory Party as he has friends; however in the party membership in the Country he is riding high. Most Tories I know believe May has made things so bad for the party that they would hold their noses and vote for Boris in any leadership election.
One interesting thing I've heard from some of my Tory friends (yes I do have a few) is to elect David Davies on a sort of 'Brexit only' ticket, then he is to resign once the blood and guts have been removed from the battlefield. Davies is apparently planning to retire at the next GE and would be personally 'fire-proof' in that respect, returning to stick it to Barnier and drawing the poison in the Party, would be an apt send off!
Interesting idea, wonder if it has any legs?
