Johnson has made those public backers of his look so foolish.

The poll lead for Labour will definitely narrow probably to around 10 points.

Nah I reckon it “might “ drop to 18 ish

kind of cool that we have a non-white PM...even if he is a snotty little shite.

[steviewevie]

so...when Sunak loses next election Bojo and his supporters will be able to say they should have picked him.

Job done.

Ahahahahahah.

What a sore loser.

If he had over a 100 he wouldn’t be standing down. 
 

First time of his life he’s ever pulled out

[steviewevie]

if Mordaunt does get to 100+ and it goes to the members...who wins?? Last time they were forecasting that Mordaunt would win if against Sunak.

He claims he has 102. 

Glad all this has ruined his holiday.

I'm confused, weren't we being told a few days ago about how Boris Johnson was really popular?

Except he hasn't been voted for by the public. It means fuck all!

Well that conversation from a few days ago has aged very poorly for some 😉

There's something very Trumpy about Boris boasting about all of his non-public-you-can-never-prove-they-weren't-there nominations.

[Guest]

It's still amazing that Tory MPs don't see this crap with Johnson coming, they always end up getting burned associating with him. They deserve it at this stage.

New pm by 2pm tomorrow. Boris will be given foreign sec.

Makes a change from comparing him to Jay from The Inbetweeners.

I feel like Mordaunt is being overly ambitious at this point. But I guess it's worth a try.

No sight of the tears yet from the mail, express or telegraph...

he did such a good job last time.

I don't have too much a problem with this, we vote for parties not prime ministers, and we also live in a representative democracy and I think when in power it should be MPs choosing, not members...but a new leader should continue with the main themes of the manifesto, not something totally new like Truss (but saying that she said she was somehow sticking to health/social care spending pledges and levelling up etc).
