Mixed Bag

Peter Briffa at Public Interest has an interesting take on David Davis's chances...

"If the Tories choose anyone other than David Davis, then they are madder than even I imagine. He is seriously right-wing, eurosceptic, cuddly and human, yet has the ability to kill people with one little finger. There aren't many of us around. Moreover, he's got the likes of Iain Dale, Ian Taylor, and Ken Clarke in the bag too. That's no mean feat. Also, he oozes ambition. No point in picking a wallflower."

Not sure where his info is coming from, as I am not aware that Ken or Ian Taylor have declared themselves.
