so she’s mostly John Major, and not much Thatcher, eh?

This is the bit that I’m actually finding puzzling. My sense has always been that May is more conservative than Leadsom - apparently a lot of people here are of the opposite opinion and I’m finding that a little puzzling.

My feeling is that some people may not understand the different nature of the jobs they’ve been expected to do. Leadsom was an obscure junior Minister who never really had to do anything all that controversial. May has been the Home Secretary who has to uphold British domestic policy whether she agreed with it personally or not.

That's a good way to put it. But maybe she'll surprise us and show a little Thatcher-like courage. But I don't anticipate this.

Hope for the best. Expect the worst.
