Next PM?

“The public don’t like elections” says Steve Baker. KGM’s got him sussed.

f**k off, Steve. We’re not particularly keen on an endless parade of incompetent Tory leaders being foisted on us either.

He’s dangerous but like Farage, one hell of a politician. I don’t think anything would give me more pleasure than seeing the likes of Brexit Hardon Steve Baker, Cruella Braverman, Pritti an the rest of the ERG scum put on one of their own planes to Rwanda.

On current polling Baker is due to lose his seat in high wycombe

JRM claimed this morning that he was sure boris would get the 100 votes yet its now being reported that the Johnson camp today asked mordaunt to drop out which suggests they aren't very sure at all

If they were sure he had 100 he’d have announced by now. If he doesn’t get 100 he’ll say nowt and pretend he was never interested.

One of Johnson's top advisors has suggested he does not stand as there is a feeling he will be gone as quickly as Truss but his best chance is to become leader of the party in opposition. Sunak will probably be the new PM tomorrow though don't rule out Johnson's ego.

and there we have it - Johnson pulls out of race

Indeed. :lol:

He says he had 102 backers.

He's lying of course.

Devastated to see Sunak installed tomorrow. He’s going to be a huge problem. I just hope the three million excluded haven’t forgotten.

I don’t see how it makes any difference. Legions of Johnson backing MPs despise Sunak. There isn’t going to be much in the way of unity.

I suppose all Johnson's supporters could back Morduant and scrape her over the 100.

Then the membership could vote for anyone except the black chap...

All but certain.
