Can't see Dizzy Lizzy lasting much longer so who's the worst eligible?

inevitably they'll pick the shittiest so at least we can brace...

Presumably Coffey will caretake in the short term if Truss goes?

Worst possible PMs:
Braverman
Coffee
Hunt
Gove
Johnson
JRM

the list is endless!

Threadkillacilla · 20/10/2022 12:34

Although she hides it well I think Coffey has a shred of self awareness. I don't think she could muster enough chaos.

This isn't a fair question as the field is so wide.
Any of them- we seriously need a General Electric now!

PhilistineWazzock · 20/10/2022 12:34

John Redwood
Chris Grayling

There's so many atrocious idiots one could choose from.

PastMyBestBeforeDate · 20/10/2022 12:36

Haunters he could do several roles.

TheFormidableMrsC · 20/10/2022 12:36

30p Lee

SirChenjins · 20/10/2022 12:36

JRM or Patel - both bring an added level of viciousness to already vicious Tory policies.

Larry would be the best of a truly awful bunch.

PeekabooAtTheZoo · 20/10/2022 12:37

Philip Davies
Andrea Leadsom
Mickey Gove
I mean do they have a single competent leader left in the conservative party?

Blocked · 20/10/2022 12:37

Therese Coffrey would be good value. She could start wrestling Keir Starmer during PMQs.

Gilead · 20/10/2022 12:41

Mark Francois!

PolkaDotMankini · 20/10/2022 12:44

Jacob Rees-Mogg. He doesn't seem to have an ounce of compassion or any understanding of reality how life is for the vast majority of the population.

Lesserspottedmama · 20/10/2022 12:46

Definitely Gove but parliament has become such a soap opera that I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he became PM!

Littledidsheknow · 20/10/2022 12:48

JRM. He's like a cartoon character. We'd be the laughing stock of the world if he became PM.

It's astonishing that anyone actually votes for him or anyone mentioned above (apart from Charles Walker).

newnamethanks · 20/10/2022 12:48

Braverman. Dorries. Moggy. Bozo. Oh hell, all of them, there's no one I'd trust in a room with the family silver.

Threadkillacilla · 20/10/2022 12:53

I still think give JRM a month and he could do the worst, NHS sold, welfare state gone.
Only then would we be truly ready for Boris.

Chope has to be in the top 5

Anniefrenchfry · 20/10/2022 12:55

Oh god Andrea leadsom, forgot about her. I’d even take Rees mogg over her. Appalling woman.

Viviennemary · 20/10/2022 12:57

She will be gone in hours if not minutes. Not before time. I knew she would be a disaster but not thisbad so quickly.,

bobtheveryoldBuilder · 20/10/2022 12:58

Chris grayling. He has destroyed every dept he’s been in charge of.

tho Rees-Mogg or Gove. At that point I would start to look at emigrating

Ah yes, Chris Grayling, forgot about him. Beyond useless. See also Gavin Williamson.

Any of the above

Matt Hancock for the lolz

I keep having daydreams about making up my own political party and who id place as PM, chancellor, foreign secretary, health secretary etc etc 😂😂

I've said it before, we could set up a MN party! There are users (male and female) spread across the whole country so you could easily contest every constituency, and from the vast number of users you will have people with a wealth of experience in important areas like the NHS, education, armed forces, finance, etc.

As long as J K Rowling is leader I'm in!

SuperLoudPoppingAction · 20/10/2022 13:04

Can't believe nobody's mentioned anne-marie trevelyan

I have three words that will make your blood run cold....Iain Duncan Smith.
