Just how long HAS Rishi been plotting to take No 10?

[scawsby steve]

how do you get that message through to those that think they are all the same?

By Keith coming out and telling us what he intends to do about everything, and why we should vote for him.

[tyke1962]

A credible opposition would be a start .

[SydneyRover]

tyke and steve, you don't support him I suggest you live with it.

[rich1471]

How could anybody vote for a bloke that stabbed the last man in the back ,no dignity at all , could never take a job on if I did that , But as Lennon sang about , their is room at the top they are telling you still but first you learn how to smile as you kill.

[tyke1962]

tyke and steve, you don't support him I suggest you live with it.

I don't support him because he's offered me nothing to support as yet .

The 12 point lead in the polls is actually embarrassing given the present circumstances surrounding the present government .

And another thing where is Keith ?

Any leader with half a brain would be all over the media sticking it to the Tories and making the case for Labour .

[SydneyRover]

well stop the moaning then, stop complaining about what you're not willing to change.

The only one moaning and complaining is you; and you don't even live here.

Steve, remember that brexit thingy? you know that one that was going to change the way you live, well it did. Remember the bit about 'we have all the cards' ................... unfortunately those you appointed put those same cards face up on the table before the game started.

[tyke1962]

Some of you had better hope Kemi Badenoch doesn't win the Tory leadership race .

[drfchound]

It seems that they are though, going by the way each and every one of the potential PMs are being pulled apart by people on here.

[BillyStubbsTears]

Spot the difference.

God help us. She's second favourite.

And so it continues.

[BillyStubbsTears]

I see they're saying that Tory leadership candidates will need at least 20 letters of support from MPa to get on the ballot.

That's a problem for Grant Shapps as he only has 7 at the moment.

Fortunately his mate Michael Green has a plan. If each of those 7 gets two others to join the project...

[SydneyRover]

The least the media could do would be to hammer the candidates to say what they will do about the NI protocol

[drfchound]

A job for a Guardian correspondent then.

This leadership election shoes how utterly barren the Right is in politico-economic ideas.

There is one over-arching screaming issue that we have to address s a country. Our productivity has fallen off a cliff these past 12-15 years.

As the Nobel Prize winning economist Paul Krugman said "Productivity isn't everything. But in the long run, it's nearly everything."

If we don't produce more per hour wormed, we don't get better off. It's that simple. There's no getting round it.

But there's not a word on that from any of the candidates. Just a set of parrots squawking "I'm for tax cuts and sending illegals to Rwanda."

There used to be strongly intellectual foundations to Conservativism. Now it's just a bunch of Z-list chancers. Like the worst ever cohort on The Apprentice.

So they are all the same then.
(Including the wormed ones).

Difficult in 'normal' times but infinitely harder when you've trashed the economy and walked (run) away from the richest bloc in the world.

When it’s down to the final 2 candidates they should be put in thunder dome from mad max 3

Wait till you get to the final chapter, when he decides that anyone who tries to repeat his father's amazing escape to freedom should be sent to Rwanda.

[mugnapper]

May explain where his £20million offshore family trust, currently being investigated by HMRC, came from.

  That's the answer then Billy, it's true  anyone under 60 years old are bloody useless and our older generations were brilliant, and harder working.
  I couldn't have guessed.

BBC News - Jamie Wallis: MP found guilty of driving offences
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-62118964

Has this fine upstanding Tory MP announced his intention to stand yet?

And of course, he fled the scene because he was worried about being attacked whilst dressed in high heels, and a mini skirt.
Not because he was pissed obviously.

he hasn't "addressed" the matter of whether he should "stand" or not ....   you could say he's skirting around making a decision

meanwhile "Agent India" is getting rumbled

[SydneyRover]

Gotta love these tories and their fans, they've made cronyism a virtue, criminality almost a must, wrecked the economy, although it has taken them 12 years to really f**k it up and if you listen to them tax will no longer be required.

To be fair some of you could put Boris Johnson in a labour rosette and you'd support him.  There's not much it any substance from any of the candidates yet, I'm sure that will come.

More of this nonsense.

There's never, ever been a person in any other party who has lied like Johnson.

You have no grounds whatsoever for saying that, because Johnson's lies were ignored by this Tory party, they'd be ignored by other parties.

You are assuming, with no evidence that the Labour party is as morally bankrupt as this Tory party. It's this normalisation. Of previously unacceptable stances that I've been banging on about for years. 10 years ago you'd have thought it unbelievable that ANY party would embrace a liar like Johnson. Now it's just blithely asserted that any party would.
