To think we're about to witness a repeat of Labour's wrong Miliband brother moment?

How Liz will won above Rishi is beyond me. I mean, I know they're both Tories and we are where we are but her interview with Laura K on Sunday really worried me.

I feel like the country is on a knife edge waiting to see what she will announce and I'm 99% sure it just won't be enough and it will start a chain of events that will make for such a difficult time for this country.

I do think it would be stopped if Rishi were PM or at least kerbed but I feel that the Tory party are about to make the wrong decision with who they chose and with it will bring dire consequences for the country.

I would think it would make them unelectable but if they've selected an ERG PM then who knows any more? Maybe I'm just a cynic but I'm so concerned about the next few weeks and months.

So the tories stumble from one idiot to another.

Fucking hell, the state of politics in the UK is depressing.

I am anticipating a number of articles suggesting racism is to blame for Sunak not winning.

If Sunak had won, we'd be reading about how we're all sexist for not voting for a third woman.

Bloody hell. We're doomed with her at the helm.

Good lord, this speech is just awkward. Read the line, wait for the claps. She is out of her depth.

Really uncomfortable apeech

They’ve all got hilarious mummy issues. Congrats to Liz for the two and a half months she’ll be in power.

Speech*

Subak got more votes than I thought he would 81k Truss 60k Sunak - imagine if he was white he might have got it over the line.

Completely shit speech!! My dog could have written and delivered a better one!

Completely irrelevant but what the guck has she got on her feet?

DELIVER DELIVER DELIVER flap hands around and pause

Racism clearly has a lot to do with it.

This is the tories we are talking about. Most dislike anyone who isn't white, middle class and male, let's be honest. Any white man would have walked the contest.

I better go to Aldi before the country collapses up Liz Truss' arse.

Maybe Sunak would have won if he didn't speak to the electorate as if he were hosting an episode of CBeebies.

So that's it verbal diarrhoea platitudes and grimaced smiles. Welcome to the new PM.

I heard the magic number for the winner is at 66% of the votes, so for every one vote for the runner up then the winner got 2 - don’t really know if or how it matters going forwards. Hear we are down to one word slogans now 🤦🏻‍♀️

Wonder if Rishi’s already got his flights booked for California…

Crowd had to literally be forced to clap when she said boris was admired from kyiv to Carlisle.

How many times did she say the word ‘deliver’ in that speech? It’s like some kind of nervous tick with her.

I genuinely felt embarrassed watching that speech.

I knew you would miss Boris' speeches, and here we are. He WAS very very good at them, and people took it forgranted.

Next you will be joining the campaign to bring him back....

It is a funny old world

Thank fuck I'm scottish & we have the intelligent sensible, eloquent, caring nicola sturgeon & a way out of this shit show.

James O'Brien riffing off the Kyiv to Carlisle - DELIVER DELIVER DELIVER - we're short of midwives pet maybe she could help out there ?

Is that a joke???? 😂😂

Talking of delivery Blue Peter style here's one we made earlier....

@Festoonlights - I sincerely hope you’re not talking to me in regards to joining a campaign to bring Johnson back. The choices for the country aren’t simply Johnson or Truss. I want a General Election because I don’t want any of the current Brexit Party people disguised as the Conservative party as the PM.
