To think that Boris is going to be p****d?

[sashangel]

Just been announced that Michael Gove is not going to endorse Johnson and is going to run as leader himself.

I reckon Boris is going to be right pissed off.

Who would you chose to be leader?

It's clearly highly personal and completely irrelevant to this discussion howtorebuild. What was your point anyway?

I am a Tory and I do get a vote and its Theresa May

The question was posted on the thread, what did she lie about. Not engaging anymore, knock yourself out.

Theresa May. Much the best.

The post about her adopted dd is vile and the poster should get it deleted. Actually will report it

Howto So you are suggested she lied about giving a child for adoption? Really?

Where's the petition to bring back Cameron?

Theresa May. Much the best.

No. Least worst. Arguably.

I think the last party leader I felt good about was John Smith .

I despise all of them, but judging Teresa May on having a child adopted is irrelevant, misogynistic and Not On.

Not to me derxa, he just stopped the dumbing down that labour brought in
Primary education wasn't dumb in the first place.

I have never been more ashamed of my country than today.
Leaving the EU because millions of people believed racist lies.
The two main political parties leaderless.
Decisions on vital infrastructure projects postponed.
The UK in danger of breaking up.
People in fear of losing their jobs.
Hate crimes in the streets.

I could cry.

OhStacey
I love Gove and he is very liberal in many ways (see his prison policy) but he's really a man of the people.

I'm not sure he is a man. I have a sneaky suspicion he is an invertebrate.

Lurking sgree with you on John smith. Huge loss.

I wonder if we may be in for a rough ride actually:

I wish the labour party could have a vigorous selection process for a new leader too. There isn't much talent stepping forward. I don't think Jeremy has been an effect leader. We need badly need a strong opposition and a credible alternative government.

Another vote for John Smith. If only we could bring him back from the dead.

After that speech May is getting my vote, although Gove is still tempting.

Crabbs seems the most normal but a bit of an unknown quantity

Hunt is a Cunt

Boris is a twat

May is nasty

Leadsom - no idea - are they (see I don't know if it's a man or a woman) normal?

Gove is awful

Has Labour even managed one candidate for their new leader yet?

To be honest I don't think Boris is in a position to complain at his mates fucking him over. At least I think David Cameron might be having a hollow laugh about it now.

Bunch of self-serving twats the lot of them

I laughed out loud on reading the OP.

What a bunch of liars and incompetents.

Someone wrote on Twitter last night that in the past it has happened that the party's favourite doesn't make it to the final two. There's now a serious risk that the favourite among party members at large doesn't even make it to the final two.

Gove though... What a snake he is. I think I'd almost prefer Boris.

Just Angela Eagle, I think.

Crabbs worries me. I suspect he might be one of those 'If I made it from a poor background you all can so let's slash benefits' types. A modern Norman Tebbit, and that fills me with gloom. As to the others, I don't know where to start, but I entirely agree about Theresa May, high on the agenda for her will be repealing the Human Rights Act. Yes, I know we will still be signatories to the ECHR, but it is a malevolent statement of intent.

I cannot believe I am saying this but I wish David Cameron would stay.

I'm hoping she's a caretaker candidate, so as not to split the anti-Corbyn vote.

Nothing against her, just that others would be better.

Sorry I asked the question now. Thought someone had accused her of lying about something political.
