there has been an unwritten agreement amongst the Conservative MPs,
ushered in by Cameron, (who was elected by Party members),
that the membership will never again be trusted with electing the leader.

There've been a lot of noises over the past few years though that the next leader will go to the members again (although I imagine the MPs will whittle down the choice somewhat).

It could just be a legacy of CallMeDave, who famously described local activists as 'swivel-eyed loons', but then again they hated him for supporting the legislation for Gay Marriage.
