But I can't see any formal mechanism for them to boot him out. The only way they could do it would be to say that none of them (except Nadine and JRM) will serve as cabinet ministers until Johnson resigns in favour of Raab as caretaker.

I've just read that he's planning to dish out a load of seats in the House of Lords to all his mates and family before he leaves, including Nadine Dorries and Stanley Johnson.

He needs to go immediately before he completely trashes the place.

We, on this thread, really don't need to ridicule the candidates, as, of course, they manage to do it themselves. And in ways we could never dream of.

One of the most interesting things about Badenoch was that in 2018 the Mail on Sunday reported an interview Badenoch had previously given, in which she admitted hacking a Labour MP’s website in 2008 (when aged 28) to say nice things about the Tories”. The MP was Harriet Harman.

Suella - it’s like when you order Priti Patel from Wish!

This was posted on Bravermans FB in response to her saying to vote for her 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Parly

I can only conclude the government has concluded that the motion as tabled was not a confidence motion says the Deputy Speaker

No 10 blocks Labour vote on government and Boris Johnson

How is this not a massive policy decision… stopping a VONC. I thought you were just caretaking, Boris?

Javid is out

He is a coward to quote Chris Bryant

Badenoch
Braverman
Hunt
Mordaunt
Sunak
Truss
Tugendhat
Zahawi

Wasn't it Zahawi who claimed expenses so that we pay to keep his wife's horses warm in their stables, but voted against more poor people being able to afford to heat their actual homes?

Yes, that's Zahawi

Badenoch

"We must require schools to concentrate on effective whole-class teaching of rigorous subjects rather than allocating tight resources to superfluous support staff and peripheral activities."

Nice, haven't they done enough damage to education in the last 12 years

Chris Bryant wipes the floor with BJ over the vote of NC. Powerful.

What does that even mean? Who are the superfluous staff?

We must require schools to concentrate on effective whole-class teaching of rigorous subjects rather than allocating tight resources to superfluous support staff and peripheral activities.

Superfluous are they now. How amazing for you to have judged that, and that classes should be effective too, that’s a great idea😐

I'm sure this video clip of Sunak in his own words has been posted previously, but lest we forget:
twitter.com/Taj_Ali1/status/1545722586767806470

Sunak appeared in a documentary aired on the BBC in 2001, called ‘Middle Classes: The Rise and Sprawl’ in which his parents are asked about their decision to send him to £46,000-a-year independent boarding school Winchester College.

Critics have questioned whether Sunak really is a man of the people after he says: “I have friends who are aristocrats, I have friends who are upper-class, I have friends who are working class.” He then corrects himself: “Well, not working class.”

After the clip was shared on social media, many expressed their shock. One Twitter user wrote: “Imagine having no working class friends. Unreal. I don't know why but I stupidly assumed that they at least knew normal people.”

Commenting on the clip, Labour Shadow Foreign Secretary David Lammy tweeted: “Rishi Sunak, on camera, saying his friends are Aristocrats and members of the upper class, “not working class”.

“He would be a Prime Minister for the few not the many.”

Associate editor at the Mirror Kevin Maguire tweeted: “Are there any working class people who’d want to be friends with Rishi Sunak?”

I suspect I am superfluous staff teaching two superfluous subjects. Wouldn't want them to learn how to think. I remembering heaving a sigh of relief when she didn't get Ed Sec on the numerous available opportunities. She's not just Culture Wars. She's Culture Apocalypse.

This gives something of an insight into Conservative thinking

He's brilliant isn't he. He just gets better and better.

Is that a thinly veiled attack on support for children with SEN?

The 'superfluous support staff's and dodgy 'peripheral activities ' are rigorously defined and assessed to enable my DD to remain in, and thrive in, mainstream education. Far cheaper, and better for her, than shuffling her into some sort of sub-standard alternative system that is just baby sitting, and far cheaper than quality specialist provision that she doesn't need.

She just needs some extra support in mainstream school.

Exactly. The Government appears to think that the role of the Opposition is to provide unconditional support to the Government. Anything else is "playing politics." All very well at the height of the pandemic, but it's high time they stopped criticising the Opposition for opposing them.

I'm sorry, but what the fuck!
They've blocked the vonc? We are supposed to live in a democracy for fucks sake, how is preventing the system from working democratic?
I'm actually beginning to get scared now of where this is going.
Look at Sri Lanka as an example of when the people wake up to what's happening.
The tories think they can do whatever the fuck they like with no repercussions and the current evidence is saying they are right.

It fucking stinks!

So she has no intention of an inclusive education then?
