Liz Truss’s time is up

[Sasaferrato]

It's going to be Sunak, right?

Doubt it.

We were discussing who? Who indeed?

Never ever thought I'd say this, but Gove is actually looking good in comparison to the others. Wallace would be my choice, but it isn't going to be him I don't think.

What an utter and absolute clusterfuck.

Bloke on the BBC just said ‘2022, the year of three Prime Ministers… at least’.

1782, 1783, 1827, 1852, 1886 and 1924 all had three but only 1834 had four.

 

[hash tag]

So Larry is officialy in charge for the next week.

For next 2 years

 

[MickiQ]

Thunderdome, two men enter, one man leaves.

One last time...

 

[WhyLikeThis]

The lettuce is having a party and wearing little a crown.

 

[ItStillWontWork]

i reckon it'll probably be Mordaunt, because fewer people hate her, because nobody knows who she is and she can do the media performances. With Sunak as chancellor.

That makes sense

Mordaunt lost to Truss and Sunak because she was too wooden and lacked depth. To Truss.

 

[redsquirrel]

They probably spent most of todays meeting working out the practicalities.

Truss and Brady have come to some agreement sure - but I can see one or more of the headbanger's not playing the game.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Is Hunt about to snatch Kawsi's record from him?

 

[ItStillWontWork]

One last time...

Career prediction right there

 

[elbows]

I suspect this is correct.

Can anyone remember how many votes she missed out on going into the final round by last time?

Not sure any candidate would gain anything by sacking Hunt

 

[prunus]

I'm actually quite relieved. She was never supposed to be in the job and the last few times I saw her in videos she looked like death warmed over. I dislike her as much as the next person but watching someone fall apart for real is no fun.

Nah, it was fun. She's scum.

 

[Plumdaff]

Given what was said about it taking place next week, and the grievous situation they find themselves in, you would think they would have a single candidate agreed in advance of the announcement. But given the past couple of weeks who fucking knows.

My view hasnt changed from last night, the headbangers will be sidelined, their moment has passed.

I'm not 100% certain about that but despite the noises the headbangers will make I still think thats the most likely outcome.

Wiki editors were quick as usual.

Probably exactly what will happen then.

 

[Bingoman]

Andrew Bridgen has just told Sky news that if the Party cannot get behind one person then there would have to be an General election

 

[Pickman's model]

Nah half of them hate him for stabbing BJ. I think a pile of dog shit actually has a chance of winning this!

Strangely that describes all the potential candidates

Just think, if just 5 of those MPs who voted for Truss had voted for Mordaunt instead, the last 45 days need never have happened

 

[Pickman's model]

You're never sure of anything. I reckon there's a lot of satisfaction to be gained by handing Hunt a p45

 

[Ted Striker]

This is a huge blow to Labours election chances

 

[Sasaferrato]

And probably security for life.

Yes, I think I read somewhere that they do.

 

[cybershot]

£115k a year for life for 44 days of shit. Nice work if you can get it.

 

[Sasaferrato]

1782, 1783, 1827, 1852, 1886 and 1924 all had three but only 1834 had four.

Don't Google. Which year had three kings?

 

[Sue]

Well they obviously would like a coronation. But with them fighting like rats in a sack I'm not sure how practical that is. Or what position it leaves any leader in.

And who would be stupid/deluded enough to want to take over at this point?

 

[platinumsage]

 

[Cloo]

It feels like it should be a rule that an administration that goes through more than 2 leaders inter-election should have to call a GE, as it’s the point of no return for that government

Is that true I cant believe it?

oh, It's done by claiming you have done lots of "public duties"

which Truss turning on the xmas lights as an ironic celeb in some small town might not quite add up to that much.
