Liz Truss

As I said, I'm just not so sure. If they can somehow squeeze Sunak in, and you can hear the screams of the 'right' already, then he may just get enough support to shore up a 'coalition' cabinet until the next GE. However, much would depend on the size of the disgruntled right he then alienates and whether they'd want to be the ones to topple him. It's all terribly topsy-turvy.

They are too fractured internally for any single PM appointed by themselves to pull them together until the next GE. They would need also to govern in that period and take hold of what they have done, own it and demonstrate good governance - I cannot see how that is even slightly possible
 
I think Sunak and Mordaunt are the only options going, with Hunt staying on in his post.

The difficulty is getting Truss to go - she seems to be incredibly stubborn and it would be utter humiliation for her to accept it.

The horsetrading putting together a working collective with enough support will be very difficult, if not impossible as the demands will be crazy.
As another poster mentioned yesterday, I think it's Francois time. We're there, we're ready, let's make it happen.

Logically that's the way to go but there's a sizeable section of the parliamentary party that will see it as a "Remoaner" plot and will never accept it. Can't see anything other a total collapse of the government. How that will play out I've no idea.
