    The best line by Tugendhat was imo when he described his conversation with Sunak about furlough and he said at the end to Sunak "And you said that's what the boss wants" <applause>

    But yeh you're right he knows he's out on Monday. Will be interesting to see who he (and his supporters) put their weight behind. By the looks of it, no one.

    I doubt it's on her CV mate.

    I bet Logica, RBS, Coutts and Spectator are though.

    Fcking bullshit. This is precisely the problem with these ****s.

    It's been pretty obvious for some time.
    Them deleting a couple of days' worth of texts when they were told not to makes it more explicit.
    Bunch of traitors in important positions on both sides of the Atlantic, unfortunately.

    Depends on which CV she's showing off.
    She's playing a role in this competition and she clearly won't win on what she stands for.
    Pulling the working class, common man card might not either, as Mordaunt's doing the same.
    They're all trying it, to some extent.

    Oh it is. It really is.
    Thatcher had (so) many faults, but as a PM she was head and shoulders above this collection of political minnows.
    Not one of them offers anything better or stronger in terms of leadership. Just variations of the same mendacious incompetence.

    Oh I get that. It's the point I'm making as well.

    She's not from a working class background so why pretend? The answer is because as you say, to try to appeal to those voters.

    But in doing so she's sold the "I came from a poor background and worked my way up" and that is what I find fcking awful. Because it's no different to the Boris lies, the Brexit lies, this whole fcking government's lies.

    I think HBIC is saying that the fact they're poor imitations can only be a good thing in terms of being an absolute disaster before the next GE.

    I'm sure her husband's work isn't a conflict of interest, either:

    From the BBC:
    please log in to view this image


    Krishnan Guru-Murthy asks the audience to put up their hands if they trust politicians.
    On screen, it appears that no audience member put their hand up.

    Are they surprised at this?

    There's more polls out and they ALL trash Truss.

    Bearing in mind, the Tory MPs will be looking for someone to save their seats at the next GE, I cannot believe they won't be looking at these polls and not thinking, fck voting for her.

    All except Moggy and Doris of course.

    I'd go with this.



    Time for Labour to actively make hay while the sun shines. And boy the sun is shining these days!

    The look on Sunak's face when he grasses him up! <laugh>
    That man should never, ever play poker.
