Next Tory leader

[Danllan]

If that's the case I would guess it would be a police matter and not a group of labour MP's and party officials.

Depends on what you think is too young... it would have been entirely legal for him to bugger young boys of sixteen from the time of the law changing back in, I think, 2000. But some may think that a 50 year old bloke doing that was 'distasteful' to say the least...

Ach well its no going to a Mr Peter Bone.
After having the willy waver in chief 2 PMs ago he probably had a good chance too.

 

[tractorsandcows]

Peter Bone showed his bone and lost his seat

 

[Hindsight]

I nominate Victoria Atkin. Well qualifed. Today said of Junior Doctors, ‘Doctors in training, as I prefer to call them’. A sleight, incompetence, out of her depth, a fool?

Bone is an idiot. He was frequently interviewed by the media and always made pathetic attempts to defend the indefensible actions of some of the many Tory clowns during what was supposed to be lockdown.

What goes around comes around. His repeatedly ridiculous partisan and arrogant denial of any wrongdoing ain’t going to be so easy to get away with now is it?

Well it seems the right time to resurrect this thread. Braverman has openly stated now isn’t the right time for a Tory leadership contest so it must be about to happen. She obviously sees herself in that role. I think she just might get the job!

No point changing before taking a drubbing. Best to position yourself as the "face for change" for the inevitable, humble pie / lessons will be learnt aftermath.

The cycle of steady hand vs charismatic will continue.

Penny Mordunt maybe.

 

[DaveGrohl]

Nah. Kemi. She’s not daft enough to try before the election though.

Is she not on the won't get back in list? They need new faces unfortunately the gene pool is about to shrink.

Be surprised if she doesn't go to the Lords.

 

[robs1]

If she does some of the old boys might have a stroke

They might well try, but she looks like she can handle herself.

Thought someone would pick up on it

 

[yoki]

Or have they realised there's no point trying at all?

Anybody any further right will be either derailed like Leadsom, or ousted like Truss.

Ergo, you just end up with the same left-of centre policies being sold as right of centre as Rishi, May, Boris, etc, was selling anyway.

So why bother?

Don't forget to say all the oppositions ideas are bad ideas
...
Even if they were your ideas.

Tories are done.
Anyone not aligned with the Civil Service is portrayed as the second coming of Adolf.

We hear that Risky couldn’t even be bothered to vote in the Mayoral election! What message does this send to the electorate? Let’s all move to California?

 

[yoki]

Let’s all move to California?

The thought of that would horrify him.

He'd move to California to be with his globalist pals*, but he'd want us plebs to stay here and suffer the consequences of his 'leadership'.

* - assuming they haven't totally trashed the place by the time he'd be moving!

He’s not very bright is he? He should have told us he was retiring to Hunstanton.

 

[yoki]

Yeah, but he'd have been telling fibs.

Then again, that doesn't seem to matter much.
