The Conservative Party

[The Stockport Iniesta]

So GE on the cards. 160k Tory nutters elect Johnson as PM. 40 Tory MPs - the few with any honesty and principle - decide to give up the Tory whip. Some because they're not standing again, some because they think they'd have a better chance as an independent candidate than as a Tory (unlikely as they'd split the vote). All the ministers who resigned under Johnson will have their feet to the fire if they support him.

And this will be in the public forum all the time

There was one yesterday, sorry can't remember who it was, said if Bojo becomes PM again, he's walking right over to the Labour benches.

The 100 MP requirement feels like it's just enough for the party to fracture along the lines we know exist - the right wing nutters, the Johnson supporters and everyone else - the remnants of the old party, one nation conservatives etc.

We'll get Braverman/Mourdant vs. Johnson vs. Sunak and they'll tear each apart hopefully.

None of those names inspire you with a whole lot of confidence, do they?
The Tories at this time all have the feel of cardboard cutouts rather than politicians capable of running a government.

Will of the British people... drone drone... waffle, waffle... Bone, Rees-Mogg, Gove, Patel, Javid, Shapps, Mordaunt, Sunak, Duncan-Smith, Raab, Jenrick, Benton, Braverman, Leigh, Chope, Daly, Coffey, Hunt, Cleverly, Kwarteng, Dorres... kick the lot of them out!

I stress again - across the world they point and laugh at us thanks to this Govt and its actions

Exactly. The US have not had any issues in recent times with a leader with credibility issues who the rest of the world mocked have they?

Too bad the Republicans copied off Truss’ economic plan(or did she copy the Republicans?)so we will be joining you.

In the words of my colleague sat next to me in the office today, 'I thought our lot weren't great but what the fuck is going on over there?'

 

[Stoned Rose]

Cunts.

“Are you talking about us and them”

Indeed, we are a shit show right this second but their President need to be in a nursing home.

I know you guys are in hell but please save a seat for the rest of us.

It was more the timing of it more than anything and how sudden and significant her changes were.

Sunak, who had been our chancellor for the last 2 years, stood on his podium during the leadership debate and stated that if she did it, the Pound would collapse, interest rates would sky rocket and she’d fuck everyone’s mortgages.

They all ignored him and went with her anyway.

I’ve got a growing niggle that this ends with Boris calling a general election, and winning it.

I just think this country is actually that stupid.

Doesn't even know what day of the week it is the gin soaked hag

"Boris Johnson is a winner"

Autocorrect can be a real pain sometimes.

"Boris Johnson is a winner"

Autocorrect can be a real pain sometimes.

Time and again the Tories articulate they only care about themselves and by extension their party. They really don’t give a shit about the people of this country

Today prog had a constituency chair on who was mad enough to suggest Liz Truss being elected by the members was the MPs' fault because they put her on the ballot as a weak candidate to ensure Sunak won!

Not as mad as the Lincoln MP denying reality in support for Johnson. Still asking "what parties did he go to?"

 

[Vic]

If Johnson did get it, whose bitch would he be?

Nope, the majority of people are self-serving so next year when their monthly bill has gone up by £600 quid they'll lay the blame solely at the feet of the tories. No way these cunts are getting in again.

 

[waspish]

They are finished just a shame we have to wait till 2024 for a labour government!

I can't see any chance of them winning an election in the next few years. Johnson would be a crazy choice with the enquiry he is still facing and would, as usual, just lurch from crisis/scandal to crisis/scandal.

I still believe their best option is Sunak to try and bring back something like normalcy and stability for a couple of years and to not lose the next election too heavily.

Might not have to wait that long if Johnson wins the leadership again.
