Political Discussions And Ranting Thread

[TQR 14,480]

Lots of people suggesting this is *that* conversation, but I’ve also seen that Truss requested this meeting with Brady rather than the other way round.

Graham Brady gone into No.10.....

Apparently at Liz’s request. So is she telling him she is quitting or asking for advice.

Liz Trusses  previous biggest cheerleader in the media  the Daily Mail calling it the endgame for Truss. 

Looks like I'm going to be glued to the news instead of sleeping of my night out on the town.

I simply do not care which part of the Tory party needs appeased. Which chancer will ascend the highest offices in this country. How sad they all are at their colleagues' treatment at the hands of the whips.

I want them to get on with governing, producing policies and a direction of travel so that people don't (as they always have done) die unnecessarily, freeze, starve or be cheated out of the rewards they were promised by working hard and paying their taxes.

This continual wanking into each other's eyes isn't helping the electorate.

 

Well I fucking don't.  I want them gone, all of them.

I am still astonished that a public figure never mind the Health Secretary  admitted to giving away antibiotics to her family and friends. Something that is both stupid and illegal.

Penny Mordaunt would be an interesting  choice. She would have made it to the final  ballot and almost certainly won the contest if it wasn't for dirty tricks by the Truss camp and tory press.

And I feel the Truss Camp dislike of her was more Calculated because they saw her as threat rather than genuine hatred a lot of them have towards Sunak.

I wonder, can King Charles just refuse to accept the next unelected Tory PM and trigger a general election?

This is kind of one of these big, constitutional crises these above-the-fray heads of state, presidents or monarchs, are supposed to solve.

 

Nope. I thought too. He can refuse a General Election in theory and within obvious parameters (i.e. he couldn't refuse if there's an election due) but he can't force one

 

Couldn't he sort of hint though?  Along the lines of

"Dear oh dear, Liz, this is a bit of a pickle isn't it.  Don't you think it's time to let the people have their say, you could all probably do with a break anyway"

It’d be interesting, in the same way that having an entire pool cue pushed up your cock would be interesting.

I mean interesting as in poetic justice and apt  given it would require tory  newspapers who manically attacked Mordaunt having to cheerlead her at the next election.

Oh they’d find that easy; not 4 weeks ago,  the same papers were heralding the best budget since the 80s; “At last, a TRUE Tory budget” said the Maily Dail. Silly flip-flopping cunts with no self-awareness, shame, decency or integrity.

David Davis says the tories are now facing an existential threat. 

 

SKY NEWS correspondent saying he has been told that a shell shocked Deputy Prime minister Therese Coffey now realises the seriousness of the situation and is ready to tell Liz Truss that the game is up and she should resign.

Yes I noticed that they were out of touch with many Daily Mail readers on that budget with many angry tories in the comments section  under the online articles.  The  paper  didn't read the room.

I wonder if Wallace has agreed to take over. He feels the one one who wouldn’t cause any party debate and could be appointed today.
