In normal times you might get one of the outsiders being elected (Kemi Badenoch?)but I think once burned and all that will mean that they will pick someone with Government experience that will please "the markets".

On Boris I would imagine they will manipulate the number of MP's support you need to make it through the early rounds to be sure he doesn't make the final two. The party members (nutters to a blue-rinsed (wo)man)would pick him in a heartbeat but the MP's mainly still hate him so they will be busy putting together an election process that as Boris-proof.
