The election hasn't happened yet, and already the Tories are planning for who will take over from Sunak.

Olive Dowden, the deputy PM says that he would support the Health Secretary Victoria Atkins. 

Boris Johnson has told  his supporters to "stick with Prit" Priti Patel. Though he could've plausibly written "stuck up prat", and no-one would've batted an eyelid.

Woke warrior and arrogance personified Kemi Badenoch will no doubt put herself forward. And apparently Steve Baker, if he holds on to his seat, is also wanting to run for leadership.

I know that Angela Rayner got into trouble for calling Tories scum; but you read something like this and think actually she had a point.

I can't really see anyone on the top table ,who would be a good leader .

Yeah, I'm hearing that a lot recently and I understand that.

Me however? I'm just not voting. I can't in all good conscience vote for either party.

I understand how you feel.  But you should consider how your local MP has performed over the last 4 and half years.  If you think your local MP has done a good job for your local area then you should  consider voting for them regardless which party they represent.

Of all the names touted, I think possibly Victoria Atkins is the least tainted.

How is suggesting someone  should look at the performance of a  MP regardless of which party they represent seeking re-election desperate?
