Whilst both useless and horrible people, Theresa has clearly paved the way for another female Prime Minister.....

Embarrassing for Loathsome to go from the final two last time to just eleven votes this time.

No. Most people who had been Foreign Secretary would expect to be able to boast of some achievements in the role when aiming to be PM. The fact that Johnson and his supporters have said nothing about it tells us a lot. I assume you also think everything Jeremy Corbyn has said and done in the past should also be disregarded. |

It is being reported that mobile phones were banned from the voting room. The reason given is that it is alleged that MPs promising their support yo Johnson were asked by his team to take a photograph of their ballot paper to prove they had voted for him. This report comes from the political editor of Sky News, so it can't be dismissed as just mischief-making.

No of course not. Corbyn's a disgrace for meeting Hamas and the IRA yet not attending State Banquet for Mr. Trump. Hope Boris trounces him in the next election. |

One of the best jokes of the campaign comes from Hugo Rifkind, son of former Tory Foreign Secretary (at a time when that position went to politicians of substance) Malcolm Rifkind...
QUOTE The fact that the world contains nine whole people who think Esther McVey should be Prime Minister is obviously shocking enough, but the coincidence of them all already being Tory MPs is little short of remarkable.

Hopefully Tory members will surprise and Johnson will lose in the run-off.

The only chance Boris had of not winning this was if MPs were able to rally enough around 2 other candidates to prevent Boris reaching the top 2, he'll surely trounce any of the alternatives with a vote among the Tory membership. As it is, Boris already has enough votes to mathematically prevent that from happening, unless he somehow loses votes in the later rounds.

Not going to happen sadly. Most Tories at this stage would vote for Satan if they thought it would save their own necks from electoral extinction. That he's a useless, selfish, lying, self-serving, buffoon with a massive ego and complete lack of moral backbone is irrelevant to them.
Birds of a feather..... The ones that describe him as the aforementioned are in the minority, and getting more minority as time passes and extreme memberships choose extreme candidates determined to drag us all down so the rich can have their wicked way with us, egged on by people who don't understand what is going on and those that do and want it anyway. |

Hope Boris trounces him in the next election. Yes he is a disgrace for meeting members of SF and trying to bring them into a peace process while the British government only met them in secret. If JC and others didn't talk to them we wouldn't be enjoying peace in NI for the past 25 years. But hey ho the right wingers were clearly right in the long term!! Our boys good their lads bad! |

Rumours that Whitehall civil servants are desperately trying to dig up something really big tonight to sink Boris as him becoming PM really scares the Establishment. Hope he doesn't drive through any tunnels in the near future.

Perhaps you could explain how someone who went to Eton, edited the Spectator and writes for the Telegraph counts as not being part of the establishment. |
