Gemmill 44900 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Rayner on telly saying "they've done more u-turns than a cul-de-sac". Wtf. Here love, they're having a really bad time of it. Please keep the shite patter to a minimum for now. If you need me on your social media team, just say the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21627 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) Also I think that Johnson being coronated would tip the balance for a VONC, and we'd have a GE pretty soon. So maybe not a bad thing. Edited October 20, 2022 by Renton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6682 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Candidates need 100 nominations. And have to be declared by 2pm Monday. So it can’t be any more the 3, more likely 2 or could even be a coronation. Could well be Sunak on the back of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the commentators are claiming Tory MPs are threatening to cross the floor if Johnson is even put forward as a candidate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44900 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I'm listening to Brady and Berry here. So nominations by Monday, 100 min required. Then a series of ballots to get it down to 2 on Monday. Then an indicative ballot to make clear what the preference of the Parliamentary Party is.... .... And then ignore that and put it to the members to decide. Ya fucking what?! The Parliamentary Party is basically Barry McGuigan's Unofficial Scorecard. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's probably Johnson then, but somebody MPs have already said they'd resign the whip if this happened and he's still got the standards enquiry thingy?

Gemmill 44900 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 If he makes it to the final 2, it's Johnson aye. I don't know if he gets 100 nominations though. Us fucking saps just get to wait til Monday to find out what this parcel of a party is prepared to serve up to us next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21627 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 BBC news man, fucking hell. Going around the country exclusively interviewing tory voters and members. Endless vox pops of "Boris got Brexit done". Despite the fact the polls show the tories are barely in double figures. How man @Dr Gloom. This really isn't defendable, is it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44900 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Johnson would be an absolute gift to Labour. Mordaunt or Sunak are the much more credible people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see it happening, with Sunak returning as her Chancellor. And also her being the only candidate. Gives them a week to sort the fiscal statement out - last thing that’s needed is a distraction until Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
