From Glinner's update - this is brilliant:

BBC have said she's made it.

ResisterRex · 12/07/2022 17:07

I read on the BBC that Braverman says she has 20 backers. But not on the spreadsheet. So maybe some are not going public?

ResisterRex · 12/07/2022 17:06

She's so close

Motorina · 12/07/2022 17:05

I don’t think she’s going to make it, sadly.

ResisterRex · 12/07/2022 16:08

Sorry to say but I think she needs two more. The green line = 20. The two top rows don't count.

(Yes I've been watching the list!)

Oh doh! You are quite right.

Imagine Nokes, Mordaunt and Miller working together as a TRA-triad. Then contact your MP!

Mordaunt as PM means I vote Labour.

Looks like Kemi's got her 20 backers...

Apparently Kemi also nailed (well, taped) female and male signs to the gender neutral toilets at her launch.

Minister for Women, please!

If Mordaunt wins it'll end up being someone like Caroline Noakes.
God what a depressing thought! I'm getting a sinking feeling.

Motorina · 12/07/2022 14:42

Or for health?

I think she’s unlikely to win, but hopefully she will do well enough to get a major cabinet role at the end.

Can you please explain how Kemi Badenoch "voted ... [a]gainst marriage equality for LGB people", yorkshirefirst, when same sex marriage (England and Wales) has not been revoted in Parliament since legalised by the Marriage Act 2013, and Badenoch only became an MP in 2017?

As far as I am aware, the only relevant vote on same sex marriage in the UK Parliament since 2017 was on the McGinn amendment to the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) Bill -- upon which occasion Badenoch was recorded as absent.

Thanks!

Hahaha, I guess that's what we call busted!

Nokes is a massive fool. I hadn’t realised quite how venal and glib she also is until her Select Committee performances; and putting Wordle scores on Twitter screams ‘smug’.

Agree. Kemi Badenoch is very clear there.

Cailleach1 · 12/07/2022 12:34

@adealwithgod I don't think Yorkshire First was trying to slander her, they thought KB voting against same sex marriage was a positive.

Irrespective of Yorkshire's personal opinion as to whether same sex marriage was a positive or a negative, they posted that KB had voted in a certain way without any care as to whether it was true or not. It then transpires that this seems impossible as KM only became an MP in 2017.

ResisterRex · 12/07/2022 11:02

You have to have been a member for three months to vote, IIRC.

Thanks. I have now found a couple of identical 'news' articles that say that, but there's not much info put there.
I guess I'm a bit late.

Snorkers · 11/07/2022 20:27

So you just made this post witout checking any facts, happy to slander people for a points score? Delightful
Guess we can take everything you say with a massive pinch of salt then

FireFlyBoogaloo · 09/07/2022 16:02

Well, I joined the conservative party so I'll be able to vote for her. I hope I'll get the opportunity.

Will new members definitely be able to vote? Is there a cut off point?

ChristinaXYZ · 12/07/2022 10:53

Apologies if this has been posted before but this is useful follow on twitter if you do prefer Kemi for PM

twitter.com/BackingBadenoch

And I agree with you @Wouldloveanother - she seems refreshing - not another lawyer or journalist, not another privately educated Oxbridge look-alike CV. She did her A levels at an FE college and went to Sussex uni.

I’m impressed with Kemi and would like her to win. She’s intelligent, she had a proper job before becoming an MP which I like (none of the uni-to-think-tank-to-politician shit). She’s well and directly spoken, she has grit and seems very anchored and unflustered by others.

achillestoes · 11/07/2022 18:02

Civil servants need to rein it in or be reined in. They’re not the government.

Did you really post something you have no idea is true or not? Without even a 'I think' or 'correct me if I am wrong'.

I love the fact that some people live in a world where nobody, but nobody, does anything for mischief or devilment. I live in the world where some people (mostly men) would do just that.

Beautifully put 🥰
