Penny Mordaunt?

[cromwell]

Apparently there is a plot to unseat Rishi Soonoff before the next election.

Crikey, how many Prime Ministers will that make it, if Soonoff gets dumped? Four since 2019? It's not a good look.
All those months of plotting against Johnson, then the decision that the members had got it wrong, so let's dump Truss...
"The adults are back in charge" whooped MP's like the appalling Andrew Mitchell.
Well when Johnson got the elbow the Conservatives were five points behind. Now, on a good day, they are twenty points behind in the polls. Good move, lads. Some adults.

So, Penny Mordaunt. She's good in the chamber of the HoC, regularly giving the SNP a good walloping, but she has a certain reputation for being lazy and she thinks that a transwoman is a woman; so nul points there with the membership.

Personally I don't think Sunak will be dumped before the election. That would just reinforce the notion that the Conservative party are running around like headless chickens, desperately seeking some magic bullet that will keep them in power.

Which really isn't a good look.

It's a Catch-22 for the Cons. If they stick with Sunhat they lose, if they twist and go for XXX they also lose.

It might be best for them to wait until after the election and see who is still in the barrel to be scraped out and promoted. We know that 60 or so of the current mob will not be there because they have decided not to stand, many are Ministers or Ss of S, and all are seen as failures; and a lot of those Con MPs who decide to stay and fight will not get re-elected...

Mordaunt has a majority of getting on for 16,000 so she is probably safe, but she is not liked by MPs nor is she particularly popular with the general public. Then again, who else is there? Schnapps? Raaaaab? 'NHS killer' Hunt?

Well if *unt gets is they'll be changing leaders again before the following election.

There are viable people but nobody is going to stand up just to be run over by a lawn mower. Best to just let the election harvest the dross and move on in opposition. Labour is likely to implode anyway if they win. You think the Tories are divided? Lift the lid of Labour and a nest of vipers has more cohesion. Same for the SNP right now, they're in a really bad state. Way too much corruption.

Dominic Raab is stepping down as an MP so he isnt in contention.

The good news never ends. What about Braverman, Patel, Dorries, Truss, Kwarteng, Gove, Cameraman, Ree-Smog, the list goes on...?

So say the Con fanboys and girls. Where are the Con competent administrators; they haven't been seen for 14 years?

Labour will have a tough time recovering from the Tory mess, no doubt about that, and especially from the current "scorched earth" shenanigans. They will have a hard time.

You Cons should be ashamed of yourselves for what you have done to the UK with Brexit and all the rest.

[miasmum]

Labour will moan for 5 years that they cant keep any of the manifesto promises because of the mess the Tories left

The next five years not doing it anyway

and the next five year will be the tories telling us how they would do it better

and so it goes on ad infinitum

And people wonder why this time, for the the first time ever, I have no intention of voting for any of them

[cruiser2]

It willbe interesting to see how many people vote in each constuency.

Where theTory MP has a majority of over 10,000 but at the General Election, only 20,000 electors vote wnen there are about 70,000 in each area, They could
easily come second or even third.

I am thinking of standing as they have just had a pay raise on top of the other benefits such as two council houses.

I didn't say the Tories were any better. I voted SNP for a decade because the others were a total shitshow.nnow the SNP has joined them.

Power corrupts.
