Leadership Debate On B B C 1 Now

[FatticusInch]

Anyone watching? Quite feisty from the off. Sunak has gone straight for the jugular, Truss actually looking competent for once.
How on earth did these two ever get on at government meetings?
Safe to say that the loser will not be getting a job in the cabinet.

[douglas9401]

Perfect timing, just putting oil in my waxy ear.

[ToraToraTora]

How little you understand Tories fatti. They will both be in the government after this. This is a scrap for the top job once that's over we'll get back to the important work of wiping the floor with Labour.

[douglas9401]

Eh?

[ichkeria]

I agree they’ll both be in cabinet after the members have chosen - however if that is Liz Truss seeming convincing at last then she must have been dire before.
Sunak is wiping the floor with her.
I’m inclined to change my allegiance.
Not that it is going to matter.

[DTCwordfan]

lets have a question on scottish devolution and rwanda, travel to France wouldn't be bad or one or repealing the wokists.

[THECORBYLOON]

Sophie Raworth is not keeping proper control.

[DTCwordfan]

agree ich....truss is tressed.

//Sophie Raworth is not keeping proper control.//

Agreed. Sunak is getting away with a lot of butting in and cutting across.

[anneasquith]

Sunak has a more political mind and probably should win, but I doubt he will .

it's a slapfight

Really? How will they be able to convince the electorate that they’re fully united?
Furthermore, isn’t sorting the country out ASAP the bigger job rather than your obsession?

[DTCwordfan]

Fatticus - what do you expect from a woman dressed in red and has been red in her political stance....

what a load of crap about clothing and jewellery...

[DTCwordfan]

agree sunak by a country mile but truss will probably carry it - on the basis of the blah tonight.

[FatticusInch]

I’m sure the programme director will be guiding Raworth and the questions are pre-set.
I doubt she’s exercising any political affiliation.

[FatticusInch]

//what a load of crap about clothing and jewellery...//

Well, what else would you expect from Nadine Dorries?

[DTCwordfan]

well nadine and liz don't go around flashing their underwear on the front bench in the House.

[FatticusInch]

They’re both walking through the minefield of ‘the Boris question’.

Sunak gave the better answer by stating he wouldn’t have him back.
Probably what the electorate want to hear but not his party.

Both though will have a tough time convincing the country that they’re not Johnson Revisited.

[anneasquith]

Who does that DT . ?

[andy-hughes]

Speaking as a Stokie, I don't think we like either of them.

[Paigntonian]

Sunak far too cocky.
