In a phone call to Nadine Dorries

Almost forgot. The Tory membership also includes made up people and tortoises, not just nutters. The issue of non brits who have never lived here, never paid taxes here, not eligible to vote in a British GE voting for the Tory leader so therefore by default the PM was an issue highlighted in...

I think it’s bigger than that Steve. The parliamentary party is split into at least 3 and the party membership is full off nutters. They could end up with a handful of MP’s and membership of posh UKIPers, it will cease to be the “broad church” they famously brag about being. I don’t know how...

When’s D-day for ACL? When are they due to go into administration proper? Is it next week?

Looks like far right populism in Italy is in trouble before she even manages to form a government. Some of her running mates have been found out to be so pro Putin they’d make Corbyn go hold on… wait a minute. She’s planning Liz Truss style tax reforms favouring the wealthy ahead of everyone...

Is the Tory party done? I saw one poll earlier predicting that they won’t return a single MP in a GE. I don’t see that happening myself but they might not even be the opposition party. The reinvention of the Tories as English nationalist has clearly been found out. It’s not the party it was by...

Hasn’t she done enough damage

Given the audience reflected the 2019 GE when they voted a Tory MP in (win from Lib/Dems I think) there wasn’t half an appetite for a GE now. It was literally all the audience bar a handful and I mean literally a handful. 4.

Because they’re right wing brexit fundamentalists. Boris is king in their eyes.

Most commentators now suggesting he’ll do well to get 60. This will be the measure of the “man”. Not his popularity but his narcissism. If he declares himself as a candidate knowing he’s not going to get the required 100 it’s going to drive the wedge deep. He’ll be completely putting himself...

I wonder what the Boris cult will do if Boris doesn’t get in? Especially if Sunak gets the job. Will they split? Could that trigger a GE?

Starting to sound like the Tories are about to finish the job of tearing themselves apart and it’s all over Boris. The Boris cult are mobilising themselves very quickly, he’s got 25 backers already. Already MP are threatening to resign the whip if Boris comes back and sit on the opposition bench...

When my oldest was a baby the banking crisis hit triggering a world recession. I was foolish enough to say thank god it’s happening now, by the time she leaves school we’ll be out the other side and the economy will be booming. She’s just started her GCSE’s and the world and especially our...

It patently isn’t true that they’re all as bad as each other. That’s not even true within the Tory party. You’re clearly not that interested.

Not the case in the UK. In the UK if you’re a foreign national you’re allowed to vote in local elections but not general elections. I actually know someone who is a foreign national, born to foreign nationals in their home country, her family moved here when she was a baby, she was educated in...

You can’t help but think Truss was just one big set up, the last desperate stand of operation save big dog.

Heard that too. If that’s true Truss is on Sunak as much as anyone. They’ve got to pick whoever they put too party members so carefully now, aside from Sunak and Mordaunt anyone else would be worse than Truss.
