We've seen the WI about John Major losing in 1992 posted a few times but I don't remember that much speculation about it.

So the Conservatives lose the 1992 general election. If you believe it's the Sun wot won it, perhaps them failing to embark on their aggressive anti-Kinnock campaign would be enough. But the POD isn't that important. Labour win but it's a skin-of-their-teeth victory with a barely workable majority, say 10 or so (I don't recall what all the poll predictions were saying at the time, but I don't think they would exactly sweep to victory).

Anyway, the question I wanted to ask was who becomes Tory opposition leader. With a limited defeat like this, we can probably assume none of the party bigwigs or high-profile up-and-coming stars lose their seats as happened in 1997. Of the field, who would you say are the frontrunners?
