So come on, pick Boris's successor.

[ajohn]

My current favourite is Rishy Washy, but I'm not 100% sure that the UK is ready to vote for a black man.

He makes me compare Blair and Brown and how they went down with people. Boris in some respects is similar to Blair for but for entirely different reasons.

Given the electorate's misguided switch to voting Tory and a certain amount of disappointment I feel a woman might swing it back their way.

This one is popular in polls - studied drama at one point - might help if she can act.

This one is more of a heavyweight and appears to have typical Tory views in most areas. She was a remainer.

yes, all tax dodgers.

glad that's cleared up

I suppose you were just pretending not to know.

Yes, legal tax dodgers then if you must. Ellal was implying different about Rishi's whole family but then that’s no surprise coming from him if you bear in mind the colour of their skin!

Interesting comment on the military man
Early in 2016, with the approach of the European Union referendum, Boris Johnson was wavering between Leave and Remain, and Wallace advised him strongly to support Remain, as taking the Leave side would mean being allied with "clowns".[15] Wallace himself supported the Remain side before the referendum.[26] After it had been won by Leave, David Cameron resigned as party leader. Johnson at once launched a leadership campaign run by Wallace and Lynton Crosby. However, a week later, after Michael Gove had decided to stand as well, Johnson withdrew.

Penny is a military lady of sorts too. Might explain why the 2 lead the polls - Ukraine.

Ben Wallace (politician) - Wikipedia

He will probably come across well due to leading soldiers - that type often do.

Rishi is thought to be the richest MP partly down to his wife but he has his own stuff too - tax havens, hedge funds etc. Some politicians sell them off etc but they have a method of hiding what they have and what the money is doing. It is supposed to prevent conflict of interests but that makes many laugh as all it does is hides it all and the income continues to come in.

Oy vey!
If you're looking for someone to lead the Tory party with the morals and integrity of Ghandi then it's going to be a bloody long voting process.
Just pick one, already.

 

[Mottie]

No sniping, although I can already guess the bitter twàts that wont be able to hold back.
Just pick one Tory who you think will be his replacement.
I’ll go first. Ben Wallace.

Damn! That’s me out.

Eeeeek. I suspect it might be Truss. Seems according to the Guardian it's impossible to change her views. Sound familiar.

What was Boris before PM. What is Truss now? Bit of prep dealing with foreign dignities maybe? Nice conspiracy theory anyway.

 

[algas]

Viktor Orban, sort you bleeding heart snowflake lefties out!

 

[Deleted member 18243]

Why does anybody take the new leader question seriously? As if anything will change for the better.

Nothing will change with a new leader because it is still the Conservative Party and the only other choice is the Labour Party. They are both the same. Both have no interest in the British people; both are actively anti-British.

The entire British political establishment should be booted out, along with all the foreigners they've let in.

 

[ellal]

You know damn well what a '4x2' is slang for.

Really?

So go on, do tell us what it means in your mind...

Or are you just another one who seems to see racism where it doesn't exist?

Oh, and care to tell us what 'Oy vey!' is in reference to and in what context?

 

[ellal]

Oh dear! Lally still doesn’t understand the difference between tax avoidance and evasion. It’s all 'tax dodging' in his book.

Aww bless...

mottie doesn't understand what has been posted and simply makes stuff up...

But what do we expect from a spiv claiming money for self admitted non existent work!

 

[ellal]

Yes, legal tax dodgers then if you must. Ellal was implying different about Rishi's whole family but then that’s no surprise coming from him if you bear in mind the colour of their skin!

What's the colour of their skin got to do with it?

Come on, say what you mean by that comment...

Without of course making stuff up again

The country would crash as they are needed in some areas. It's why some areas have had problems. Covid caused a number of EU migrants to go home. Living standards imporvements also caused some to return to where they came from

|f you read and understood this you'd realise it has not been that easy for them to remain here augmented by Cameron just before the referendum

Same applies to the other types of migrant that come in a rubber boat. An easier group to target that cause their own specific problem - mostly handling them.

A lot of the noises made by gov are attempts to keep Farrage believers quiet. A bloke that never ever explained what the numbers mean in practice nor mentioned all races that choose to live here.

Bleedin' obvious. You and your racist tendencies of course. We already know how you describe members of the Jewish community.

The Urban Dictionary definition.

'OY VEY!' in this context, is used as a term of exasperation.

you're welcome.
