Conservative:
1965: Edward Heath. (I have a slight soft spot for him. Maudling wasn't terrible either iirc) 1975: James Prior. (Pretty good for a Tory. Heath had become bitter as feck by then and Whitelaw had...issues) 1989: ugh, Meyer. (Lesser of two evils premium example) 1990: Douglas Hurd. (Honestly kind of feel sorry for him. Made Heseltine look like Michael Caine) 1995: John Major. 1997: Kenneth Clarke. (Has become a git recently, but he's a good bloke overall. His deal with The Vulcan was very odd) 2001: Michael Portillo. (Post conversion obviously) 2003: ew. (*the night intensifies*) 2005: Kenneth Clarke. (poor field overall tbh)
Labour:
1955: Nye Bevan. (Uncertain vote, since he'd be crap as leader at that point) 1960: Harold Wilson. (Nothing against Gaitskell, but you can't Ill-son the Wilson) 1961: Anthony Greenwood. (Fairly interesting man, look him up) 1963: Harold Wilson. (Callaghan was fine, but Brown had err...issues) 1976: Jim Callaghan. (I like Foot more, but I honestly don't think he would've made a good leader. Crosland and Jenkins I would've been fine with) 1980: Peter Shore. (another interesting man) 1983: Peter Shore. 1988: Neil Kinnock. (Honestly, Benn was past it at that point) 1992: John Smith. (Not a perfect choice, but Gould was a bit out there) 1994: Margaret Beckett. (Might've been tempted by Blair) 2007: Gordon Brown. (I hold a lot of respect for him, and McDonnell is a prick) 2010: Ed Balls. (I have an odd love for him. Abbott and DMIL at the bottom obvs) 2015: Yvette Cooper.
