UK General Election 2024 (or 25)

[Emmson]

All good news for Labour this, the Tories will be hopelessly divided. A lot of loathing between Rishi and Boris camps

[Derek27]

My mum always told me that if you tell a lie you'll have to tell another 20 to cover it up until you're caught, but it's a shame there wasn't a PM like Johnson at the time to use as an example.

A BBC Political Editor should not be sending out tweets like that imo

Falling Standards

Why? I't's precisely what has been reported on the Live BBC stream. Or have I misunderstood (quite likely)?
BJ's team briefing that BJ has his 100 lined up is then described as hogwash and that is then reported. What's the problem?

Because it's not credible based on public declarations, clearly someone in the Boris camp has been in his ear, if he said from a Boris insider I might give him a pass.

I think we're on the same page. But BJ's supporters claiming things has to be reported. The claims have to be open to public scrutiny.
Mason then reported the counter-claims that 100+ for BJ was hogwash.
People like Mason don't make the news, they report what stake-holders in any issue have to say.

If I get this wrong I will be swallowing a nasty red.

If Boris the Buffoon doesn't get 100 bum-lickers it will be the biggest credit to the Conservative party in years, not that that says much.

It's not a market I'm leaving open positions on for too long.

I keep mixing up my markets, earlier I had a moment wondering who Hamsa Yassin was as fav for PM.

I don’t think Boris will run, instead telling his supporters to back Penny who the membership will also back.

Might be a part racist thing with the membership, they really don’t like Sunak.

As much as I despise the Tory party they're pretty much integrated with Sunak's popularity, Kwarteng getting the job as chancellor and Truss getting the top job. Just a shame they were both disasters!

[Archangel]

Perhaps not even the Tories are mad enough to select a man who is currently under investigation for misleading parliament as a Prime Ministerial candidate

Kemi backing Rishi!

Good news for Rishi as she will bring some young rightists with her.

Boris and Sunak to meet ?

The plot thickens

[Emmson]

Market is reacting to these latest developments, it feels like the tide is going out on BJ.

[Derek27]

Patel: "Boris has the mandate to deliver our elected manifesto and a proven track record [of lying and] getting the big decisions right. I'm backing him in the leadership contest".

His biggest decision by far was whether or not to obey his own lockdown rules, after all, it cost him the job he desired all his life - and he got it wrong, multiple times!!
