Yes, she was a Remain supporter and I certainly disagree with her on that, but I don’t regard that as disqualifying. She is, I believe, committed to respecting the will of the voters.

And her positions of immigration as Home Secretary while Britain was a Member of the EU should not be assumed to be those she would hold as Prime Minister of a more clearly sovereign nation.

The fact she is willing to consider altering the status of foreign nationals already resident in the UK while Leadsom was not is a major point in her favour.

I don’t think that most Americans would be aware of the important distinctions you make that are highly relevant in a parliamentary democracy of the British stripe, and would have a hard time appreciating them.

Isn’t she about kicking out members of the Commonwealth who make under - what is it? 35,000 pounds? Some of these people are married to nationals, settled into the country and actually have jobs. Meanwhile, muslims are on the dole and going nowhere.
