You know what - I have been saying this over and over to others (not on here). The MPs wanted him in, for their future electability, for the party and then for the country.

The Tory membership would never want a successful Indian man running the country.
Lucky you’re part Italian then. Go for it. Introduce them to the dishwasher game to decide votes.

Liz Truss is quite clearly a serious danger both to her country and her party. How much the average Conservative MP cares about the country, I do not know. Some do care, I’m sure. But this is not a case of putting country before party, or vice versa - she’s destroying both. They’ll throw her in the river, sooner rather than later imo.

Spaffer is going to be loving this. He won't give a flyer for the predicament the country is in and could be looking to make a comeback.
 
As can be seen, from the following, the Tory MPs voicing concern, over the Truss/Kwarteng debacle, are not so much worried about the public/country but about losing their seats/

A Tory rebel ringleader told the Mirror: “We will have zero chance of keeping our seats if we do not stop this, so we will do whatever it takes.”

I mean that is most people for you they will first and foremost care about keeping their job, at least it shows there is an effective way to put their balls in a vice and they are currently feeling the country’s tender grip.

If true, Truss and the Tory days are numbered.

It feels like they are deliberately tanking themselves.

Tampering with pensions and mortgages is just about the most sure fire way to piss off the country.

That being said that is an extremely hypothetical tweet, I cannot see them touching the state pension.
