 Public reacts with excitement to Rifkind leadership dithering8 Jun 2005
The general public has responded with overwhelming excitement to the news that Malcolm Rifkind is dithering about putting himself forward to be the next interim leader of the Conservative Party. The former Foreign Secretary, who returned to Parliament at the last election after being ousted in 1997, said it was "quite likely" that he would possibly consider perhaps standing, but he would not make his final decision just yet.A DeadBrain poll has shown huge support for a Rifkind leadership bid, with over 12% of respondents expressing some kind of opinion. "I'm overjoyed that Malcolm is thinking of standing," said one woman. "This is the best news I've had since my neighbour's cat died."  The other potential leadership candidates, thought to include That Man Who Was in the SAS, That Bloke with the Glasses, The One Nobody Likes and Ken Clarke, have yet to decide whether to dither about joining. Mr Clarke was said to be "agonising" following a heavy lunch with colleagues, but that was not thought to be related to the forthcoming contest.
