Truss's excuse for supporting her two-faced lying boss is that she's a loyal person. Perhaps she'll be loyal to Putin?

I don’t think we need to worry about who the next PM is or when a general election happens.

Rumours are that USA is convinced China will invade Taiwan. That will cause serious military confrontation between the two nations and if Putin is still around spur him on to push Europe even further as thinking is USA will be preoccupied.

So, WW3 is coming in one form or another.

I became a party member, so hopefully i get to vote when it comes down to just 2. :)
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.

😂🍷🍺🤮
Forget about Liz, Dehenna Davidson's married to a man 35 years older than her, so there are younger MP's to go for. :D

Looking forward to the live showings, Truss has a knack for fluffing her lines

I'm looking forward to hearing all the candidates squirm and avoid questions about why they supported or failed to denounce the current PM. Truss says she's loyal [to a lying hypocrite who turns a blind eye to sexual abuse] but I hope that falls under closer scrutiny. :D

I wonder if Sunak will do the no tie thing. I remember the last Con live debate it was like a Westlife performance- no ties, barstools

Sunak sat in front of a set with the word campaign spelt incorrectly. :lol:

Oh no! A spelling mistake. Fuck me! How could I find a better criterium for selecting the next PM?

The irony is that he was asked what his biggest weakness is and he said an overly attention to detail. :lol:

Being a selfish uncaring git would have been a better answer. One of the candidates, can't remember which, said they work too hard!

The lapse in detail presumably being employing a bitter BJ supporter (or Truss, Mordaunt et al).

I missed the debate but I loved the question, is Boris Johnson an honest man? :lol:

Besides Tom, none of them had the bottle to answer it, even though he's outgoing. Gutless slimy worms. :lol:

Considering Tom was the only one to vote against the tax increases he didn't really get involved in any of the economy debates

At one point I forgot he was there, it was just the four of them for a good 5-8mins

Tom is more concerned about increasing defense spending to 3% of GDP probably because he knows whats coming.

So just been reading the DM comments, penny looked out of her depth. Truss looked I’ll. Sunak looked fishy and Tom talked sense.

I’m going to say this will go down to Sunak and Truss
