Liz Truss and her Thick Of It moment - calling app Britain

Not a terribly inspiring pitch for her.

Is anyone else liking Penny’s back price yet?

A couple of senior MP's hinted that he may be offered a position in Government.

Well, at least we can carry on cracking jokes about him. I didn't get Starmer's joke today but it got a few laughs and glum faces from the other side so I must have been good.

He was having a go at the current chancellor who allegedly benefits from a £100m offshore trust & javid - the bus drivers son - who had non-dom status as well as the ex-chancellor...

I was more amused that the PM4PM website was registered in 2019, Penny(?) also registered NZ4PM so that site directs you to hers, also registered suellas.

Must have been a right Thick of IT moment in campaign HQs when they discovered that..

I've just reviewed it, it was the "Johnsonian brass neckary" jibe, referring to Sunak claiming the economy needs rebuilding.

It's quite awkward for the candidates who had a key part in this government. They talk, as candidates usually do, about how they're going to get out of the mess we're in without realising it's an admission to the mess we're in and that they along with Johnson got us there.

How much does it cost to join the party and don't you have to be a member before a specified date to vote?

It’s £25 per year for membership. Didn’t look at the date part, never mentioned it on the site. They emailed me my membership number via email and text message. Supposed to get all the documentation within 3 days.

Mainly looking forward to all the free food and drinks at Tory party events so I can have some cake and be sick up the walls.

Doesn't look like the leaderboard's changing much. Tom hat end tugger will be the next to go, followed by Kemi Bad one and Liz Can't be trusted.

At least the UK is not the only country in the shit. Looks like Italy's government is about to collapse.

Not entirely. Covid, China's zero covid strategy and Ukraine also played a big part. The 'mess' was the result of an arrogant and undisciplined regime. The starring govt policy was our approach to vaccines. And that can't be underestimated or denounced by saying "well any other govt could have done that". It was an important moment of excellent govt. And the support that Rishi (or was is Boris) put into the economy was also vital (literally).
I shall be watching the progess of the "levelling up" like a hawk. Is it a charter for reduction of standards or a genuine attempt "level up" and address the London-centric approach previously.

Interesting how the term ‘Northern powerhouse’ adopted by the Cameron years has been ditched for ‘levelling up’

Truss nearly ahead of Sunak in the markets. I imagine this is in part due to the right wing drop offs going into her camp.

They'll be going round in circles.

An MP said he's gonna vote for whoever Suella supports and thinks most of her supporters will do the same! Don't they have minds of their own?

She's supporting Liz. I think we can safely say Bad'en will be out next.

The 3 TV debates, Tomorrow, Sunday, Monday should be good entertainment.
