If it wasn't clear already that his being potentially in No 10 was a problem it certainly is now. Main public objection seems to have come from LD's, Dominic Grieve, Oliver Letwin and Caroline Spelman are all apparently happy to talk to him. There will though be other Tories who find JC beyond the pail in that role as does the redoubtable Ms Soubry and i dare say a chunk of the Labour party.
Other names suggested to lead a 'GNU' are Ken Clarke or Yvette Cooper. Whether people will rally around their flags, or those of others such as Grieve himself, Keir Starmer or Hilary Benn, remains to be seen.
We live in interesting times.
