    I thought she'd give birth to a dead cat.

    As you mentioned in an earlier post, Sunak is closely linked to Allegra Stratton, so could be tainted by that. I think Jeremy Hunt might win a leadership contest.

    Can’t imagine him going down well with the members who are the only ones who matter. Bit remainery isn’t he?

    He'd be a good bet to get to the final two, so it would depend on how bonkers the Brexit party finalist was.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Liz Truss eventually replaces Boris, she's more in line with the Tory diehards...

    She’s a Liberal Democrat, so perfect for the modern Tory party.

    I’ve just been reading the ‘highlights’ of her address to the Chatham House foreign policy think tank. She’s unhinged. All the old populist/nationalist **** …’our adversaries’, the ‘fashionable circles undermining us’, ‘hostile forces’, ‘malign ideologies’……a ****ing menu of people to blame for everything while ‘Britain is the greatest country on Earth’ (as if it was a competition, with perhaps a league table) where ‘everybody has the opportunity to succeed’. But not, perhaps, an equal opportunity eh Liz? Especially as you continue to ignore the women and equalities agenda which you remain responsible for.

    But we can rest easy, she promises that, under her, British foreign policy will be ‘unashamedly commercial’ and despite banging on about ‘freedom and democracy’ a dozen times, she says we will do business with any country which is not ‘actively trying to undermine us’. Phew, so we can still sell arms to the Saudis and buy everything from the Chinese.

    She’s definitely running for leader and would beat Sunak with the faithful with ease.

    "Eventually" is the optimum word, because I still don't see Boris going anywhere, though backbenchers may insist on the installation of a well organised enforcer as their price for continued support.

    As for Truss, she has the charisma of...of...Ann Widdecombe. Which is why I'd favour Sunak. Imagine, a Hindu prime minister from the racist, sexist Tories, while Labour is at least a century away from their first female leader.

    It’s sad that you need to mock the birth of a women’s child Beth?
    Especially when the poor girl previously suffered a miscarriage.
    People need to distinguish between politics and human beings.

    She’s a **** and her current husband is a ****. I feel sorry for the child though I doubt he/she will have too much to worry about in life.
