She strikes me as an old polluting Jag driver so could be a decent fit again

I was joking about May and Truss and state education (Im from a comp). Agree, Brown was probably the last statesman we’ve had as PM. I do see Sunak as a bit different to the Eton boys though

Pretty underwhelming so far. Smacks of deals done for leadership support/trying to hold party together *just seen Tony’s Ian Dunt post saying same

Cleverly as foreign secretary as well ?!

To be fair I think May and Truss were from local comps….they’re probably not a ringing endorsement for public education though !!! I agree in an ideal world it would be great to move away from the Oxford graduate PMs but that shouldn’t diminish it being a positive moment for the country to...

Yeah, I think it’s something to be proud of as a country….even if they had to swerve the members vote to get there 😊

More room at the back

I don’t think it’s a massive shock. They’ve probably been given the heads up that they’ve not got positions in the new cabinet so are resigning for the benefit of their egos.

You know me, ever the optimist

Yeah, I remember seeing that. As NW also mentioned he made some comments at the end of last leadership battle trying to get members on board, which I hope were out of desperation, rather than true beliefs. Soon find out I guess

Give him a chance 😂. Agree though he does appear thin skinned which isnt an ideal trait to have as PM ! There are no doubt some tough calls ahead. I just hope they’re made in as fair a way as possible and that he makes decisions in the countrys best interests, not to please some members of the...

Dame Nadine ?

Maybe theres a few less loyal nutters than expected. Having said that, I’m sure I heard Dorries calling for a GE as Sunak hasn’t got a mandate. I presume in the hope that the Tories lose and this hastens the return of her hero….if she doesn’t lose her seat in the meantime 🤔 Any heard anything...

I didnt know that. Wouldn’t have helped !

Agreed. Sunaks not stupid though and if he’s not in the pockets of the right (I don’t think so but I was a bit concerned when some came out early to support him) he might try to address this argument. Major balancing act whoevers in charge. They desperately need us to be as/if not more...

Yeah, that will be the angle of attack, especially if inflation continues so the public are squeezed even more. Any decision to not support people will be met with ‘he doesn’t understand what it’s like to be us’ It will be interesting to see how he combats that. ps theres no doubt in my mind...

Yeah, I agree. He’s very unlikely to win, I was just saying Labour moving too far away from what they have been doing might open the door a little

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was just all the transfer chat before window closed, plus frustration about pitch

Labour are currently polling 20-30+ points ahead of Tories. This is based pretty on competency with a bit more compassion which is obviously the right strategy at the moment so why change it ?!* The only way I can see Labour fucking this up is all of a sudden coming up with a load of...

Custard tits 😂 Pritti did his counting
