Not criticising you as you know that we can disagree well, but is this because you simply see her as the most right-wing of the likely candidates?
Yes pretty much.
She is also one of the only high profile MPs with views somewhat similar to mine. Mogg would be another although I support a social market rather than unbridled free market.
However I'm realistic and I realise that the Tories are probably never going back to the good old days of social conservatism and things like SSM and abortion on demand are unfortunately here to stay even if Patel were to get in.
I should also add that while I did have "Priti4PM" in my sig once I'm not actually wild about her or any other politician. I really struggle to "like" any politician and Patel isn't exactly Miss Congeniality.
