Such a shame he's too busy making programmes about the railway.
Kenneth Clarke
He's not interested in serious politics any more anyway. Doesn't even want a place in the House of Lords

Sound perfect
Seb Coe!
Possibly get lynched for this on here, but now he's out of politics I kind of like Portillo's media persona...
yeah he went from being reviled as a politician to loved as a media presenter.
Why would he choose to go back into politics?
and he's not the only one, we have a cornucopia of ex-tory-MPs-cum-light-entertainment-leviathans to choose from!

Bring back Brandreth! Brexit is inevitable so he could talk the EU into signing a favourable deal, they'll do anything to get rid of him after a few hours.

Imagine the global chaos with Boris and Trump 😆
Quite a lot of politicians seem decent characters once they pack in politics, though the only serving right winger I currently have much time for is Ken Clarke. It must be the Hush Puppies.

And let's not forget Portillo's hypocricy - voting against gay rights despite having had gay relationships himself.

Difficult to pick just one really, isn't it?

Are you saying they are two different people? Well I never...
I thought it was a Peter Kay/Brian Trotter/Max the bouncer type act.
Being a commentator is always easier than being in the front line. Gary Linekar told me the same thing about MotD vs being a manager.
People do tend to remember commentators who make wildly innacurate predictions though.

We'll never let Alan Hansen off for his 'won't win anything with kids' statement.
Thankfully political mis-speak is almost forgotten overnight 😉
