First time for everything

If Mordaunt gets 100 MPs the membership will vote for her in my opinion

 

[dribble]

She was asked 5 questions on TV this morning and didn’t answer a single one.

Well we need continuity in some form....

Sounds like Boris will not be allowed anywhere other than backbench as well. They've frozen him out

 

[SNEEKERS]

For now.

Phew!
I was thinking the worst!

 

[HolgateCorner]

I think he must have had a visit from Graham Brady who perhaps gently advised him it was ‘not in his best interests’ to stand again….

It's a shame his dad didn't......

Let’s be clear, the least worst piece of shït won a vote that should never have been needed. The first among equals, all equally bad.

Or maybe he couldn’t manage 100. In this case backers, in the past vinegar strokes.

He will be more 'back on holiday' next week than he will be back bench.

Poor Moggster, hope someone has called nanny. I'd like to see him run for MP for Beamish at next GE.

Obviously needs to brush up on her lying technique then

I read the other day about his first attempt to be an MP, where he said that how he wished people would stop going on about his Nanny, and if it was his valet helping him door to door canvass instead that nobody would bat an eyelid......this man should be nowhere near having power to influence the lives of ordinary Brits.

If only his father had pulled out all those years ago.

The Tory membership should be nowhere near this. They voted for Truss, they had their chance and blew it.

Boris the bottler. A quitter not a fighter. How humiliating for the narcissist.
