I don’t think for a moment that’s a consideration for the Parliamentary Conservative Party, but yes it is almost certainly an issue amongst the ‘Blue Rinse Set’. The Constituency Conservative Membership have already demonstrated how hopelessly out of touch they are.

Keep in mind the Privileges Committee investigation into Johnson kicks off next month. So if Johnson were selected he’d immediately be at risk of sanctions. And that’s apart from the obvious fact of him not having the support of voters out with the extreme right wing that has caused all these problems.

After Tory MPs had had their votes.

It was a rhetorical question, I wasn’t expecting an answer.

How does economic growth compare?

I’m for leaving the Tories to sort their own mess out. The Tories need to suffer the consequences of their own actions.

And the lack of growth, and failing companies, and trade barriers, and worker shortages (across all sectors especially, healthcare, social care and hospitality), and lack of market access…..the list goes on.

… and Brexit.

It will be interesting to see if a real open competition takes place. The last two cabinet appointments have been very clearly a step away from the madness of the last few weeks.

About as long as a Tory PM lasts these days. Perhaps longer.

Oh yes please. Come back and finish the Tories off.

The opposition in waiting.

Including Truss.

Will you be there on Saturday?

I think it’s a commonly held belief. I personally wouldn’t trust him as far as I could throw him, but not simply on the veracity or otherwise of what comes out of his mouth.

You are correct, I didn’t make the direct accusation, had I wanted to, I would have. Perhaps I was observing a reality that Johnson has lost the public’s trust.

I didn’t label him a serial liar.

Would anyone trust his answer?

The idea that somebody has told the Tories to put a stop to Truss fits with the events unfolding. Who that might be remains a guess.

[Trigger warning, this post includes the word ‘asylum’]. I suspect someone is telling Truss what to do, and the Hunt for that matter. Or are we to believe Truss suddenly took a liking to people who opposed her appointment, and that Hunt, who couldn’t get 20 MPs to nominate him in the Leadership Contest suddenly has the authority to wipeout all of Truss’ policies? It’s my opinion that someone has decided it’s not a good idea to let the lunatics run the asylum.

Again, I’m not a member of the Tory Party, I get to have zero say in who will inevitably replace Truss. I doubt anyone on this forum does.

Sorry, you don’t get to choose what I decide to post about. That’s not how any of this works. …….. Meanwhile Nadine Dorries has gone full gas nuts, demanding the return of ‘Boris’.

No, not biting. Stick with the Subject of discussion, Liz Truss, a wholly Tory choice. A wholly Tory mess.

It’s not a dodge, it’s a recognition of a fact. Nobody outside of the Conservative Party had any say in the matter. Asking people outside of the Tory Party is pointless. This is all on the Tories.

The Tory MPs who got rid of him disagree.
