He is a very able politician. Just the person for a crisis.
But not popular with many I agree. Tho actually extremely personable in private. So I am told.
I'm pretty sure Michael Gove in any cases declared ages ago that he was finished with ministerial politics.
Mind you yesterday Truss claimed she was a fighter and not a quitter.
Depends on who stands. Not Rishi, nor Penny, nor Jeremy; I don't really know about Nadhim, nor Tom; and the best of a questionable bunch are Suella and Kemi, but I've no idea if they'd be as out of their league as Liz proved to be. Or indeed if any of them really believe what they say.
I hope it’s Sunak because obviously this time they’re going to bypass the Werthers Warriors who rejected him.
It’ll be too much for lots of them that the ethnic bloke has got the top job and they’ll leave the party.
Tainted with the Johnson stain AND seen as a backstabber to boot by the Johnson faithful.
What a debacle, not a dry eye in the house, ROFPMSL!
Penny for me. She’s on the front bench and we need to move forward now, not back to Sunak sitting on the back bench with all the issues around his wealth and US Green Card.
Times and Guardian seem to be reporting that one Boris Johnson will try his luck again. Naomi will be happy! While I'll have been confidently wrong, as usual :P
He was the one who rightly predicted everything that would happen if Truss rolled out her fiscal policies. He was the favourite parliamentary candidate - Truss was put in by party members, who now have a long time to reflect on their mistake.
