If the previous leadership contest was a measure of the next Hunt wouldn’t have gone out in the first round last time. It’s pretty clear that the right wing press wants her as leader, they’re recycling all their old Truss headlines for her and that might be enough to get her to the final 2...

Yet Truss didn’t. Not sure what your point is.

I think it’s fair to say that any party membership capable of voting Truss leader is more than capable of voting Braverman leader. It’s not exactly a membership with a track record in common sense. And after the next GE the parliamentary party may have little choice but to put her forward in a...

Ultimately they’ll end up regretting it. Far right parties do not make good government. We’ve seen this all around the world in the last decade from Brazil to the US to Italy. Even in this country, the further the government lurch to the right the worse they’ve became. Even Sunak realises this...

It was a bit of a pointless budget past the headlines. People’s expendable incomes are going to continue to be squeezed and that’s what really matters to people. It will be forgotten about tomorrow when the rise of the energy price cap is announced. Circa 5% rise for the next quarter is what the...

50 hostages being released in return for a temporary ceasefire. Don’t know what to make of this. Good news in some respects but the deal Qatar has been talking about literally from the start of this was a complete ceasefire for the return of all hostages. From what I’ve read the government in...

Hunt, rhymes with…

Absolutely and MHancock was shown up today also for being as thick as pig shit. The only difference between the two is there’s never been people queuing up to tell you how intelligent MHancock is and its all an act.

One myth that we can put to bed from the covid enquiry is that Boris is actually a very intelligent guy. He’s as thick as pig shit, incapable of understanding the most basic of information and not even able to process the evidence of his own eyes and what was happening in Europe and especially...

They’ll be series of tunnels under the new one too. There always is under large buildings that are utility hungry.

Maybe compared to past Tory parties but not the current cult. Starmer is a centrist at the end of the day and the current Tory party is anything but centrist.

I find myself reminded tonight of how blindly the Conservatives followed Blair’s dressed up dossier on WMD in Iraq that took us into an illegal war. They stood on the wrong side of history. I remember Robin Cooks speech, I remember Charles Kennedy leading a march, MP’s standing up on what in...

Bassem Youssef tore Morgan a new one in his interview. Worth looking it up if you haven’t seen it already.

According to Andrea Jenkyns half a dozen MP’s are putting letters of no confidence in today. Assuming non of the reported earlier in year 25 letters haven’t been withdrawn they’re scrapping just over 30 letters, well short.

You’re employing critical thinking and facts. You’re not their target audience.

We should probably point out that the government has already spanked £140M on this folly. Maybe it would have been a good idea to sort the legality out first? Already rumours that the government is now trying to look for another country to partner up with so it looks like they plan to do the...

Maybe this will make the government look for a genuine solution rather than throwing red meat around.

Quite possible but I’m thinking that some centre right Tory voters might be wooed back. To his credit I think Sunak understands that the culture war bollocks isn’t working, unless you want a load of gammons fighting police to disrupt proceedings at the cenotaph. Bringing in Cameron is a clear...

What’s the betting that the Tories get a bump in the polls for getting rid of Braverman?
