She will always have to come to the point of convincing the rank and file that she is the best choice they have.
True, but if there’s a vote right now, she will lose. If she waits until after a GE she has all the time between now and then to chip away at Sunak’s Gvmt, especially after it loses the GE. There’ll be a lot of time to bottle up the party’s anger then use it in a leadership bid, time she simply doesn’t have now.
I think you’re bang on about Cameron. It’s a dangerous political move by Sunak for all the reasons you state. I don’t think there’ll be a flood back exactly but some will return. There’s still a huge amount of Johnson fans in the party and a lot may depend on what he thinks of Cameron’s return.
I think the only way we will see is if it happens. The turmoil of the Truss election showed me how easily the worst option can come through. Truss was seen by many as the most likely and the most idiotic choice before campaigning began. Braverman is in that position again, and a lot of the saner tory members have left. The voter base has inevitably swung further to the right because of it. But OFC it is postulation. Let us see how it pans out.
