Just been paid my £102 by Sky Bet. 
Clearly they think she won’t be U turning this time.

🤣 Nice little payout.

Bill Hill had Truss to be out by the end of 2022 at 1/2 the other day then narrowed to 1/3. Not quite 33/1

Bridgerton knows. Its Sunak by acclamation and Mourdant as FS or HS. Does Schnapps get his ministerial bonus for being in the job for a week? Before he goes back to Transport. The ERG knows a centrist has to be the figurehead but they want assurances many of their stormtroopers will get a seat in the Cabinet.

You read my mind👍

I have a strong sense of deja vu about all this . Must of had a bad dream.

Backed it as soon as the chaos started and even suggested others should follow. She’s lost me far more than that though from my pension drawdown fund alone.

The writings on the wall for Boris.

Now that the right wing press are lining up to have a go at Johnson and he also says he can't get by on his miserly £150k salary, who will be next?

Rishi is the favourite but experience says that being favourite is a bad place to be in Tory in-fighting.

 

Edit and Repeat. Third time lucky ?

Boris Johnson it seems about to confirm he is standing.

He is going to use the Ancient Greek method of left arm no, right arm yes to decide. ****us Topofthepopulous was his favourite soothsayer

Wouldn’t he have to resign if he was found guilty by that ethics committee thingy ?

I think he got away with it because they couldn't find the cake crumbs as evidence.

Is that actually going to happen? It seems to be delayed long enough.

Someone should tell the Tory party you can't have a second vote, just because you didn't like the result of the first one.

Exactly!

Only this time they are making sure by not putting it back to the voters (their own party members!)

Like a particularly pungent fart....

If Johnson stands I think they should make sure there isn't a knocking on the door of a crypt at Windsor Castle.

I think as somebody said - the UK currently looks much more like an oligarchy than a democracy.

Shocking I know but has a more than an element of the truth about it.

[Badger 2,406]

Seems like old news now but...

The Conservative party is much like the Mafia, its all about power.

When the knife goes in its nothing personal, just business.

many countries envy the way we quickly dispose of a failing leader (especially the Yanks)

Hence Trusses line, "I coulda been a contender".

They claim they have a mandate based on the 2019 GE.

In 2019 we were still in the EU and the mandate was "Get Brexit Done".
