The next PM.

[ColchesterFC]

Didn’t realise Corbyn and Abbott were up for tory leader. Wouldn’t be a good thread about the next tory PM without a dig at Labour.

That wasn't a dig at Labour. It was simply a hope that the two of them had enjoyed their "trip" through the former East Germany. I would hate to think that they hadn't enjoyed themselves.

Spot the emoji mate.

I did indeed, and it wasn't a serious reply to your post. I really don't care whether they enjoyed their motorbike trip or not. In fact I hope they had a miserable time, it rained heavily the whole time and they fell of their bike at least once a day. But at least the LSD they were taking ( <---that I completely imagined and made up) would've softened the blow when they hit the tarmac.

P.S. Again that's not a dig at Labour. If it had been May and Gove on a motorbike in East Germany I would feel the same about them as well. In fact in their case I would have been hoping that they hadn't had the imaginary LSD to soften the blow when they hit the road.

I know mate, bit of fun.

That is absolutely fantastic, and I don't mean that in a good way. I hadn't heard that one before. My favourite quote from Gove is from when he was Minister for Education and he was talking about education standards. He said that he wanted "all schools to be above the national average" thus proving that the Minister for Education didn't understand the meaning of the word average. And these people rule us.

Watching these so called candidates being interviewed just shows how much of a state the UK is in.
My God they are all hopeless, one there calling Truthless Davidson 'a real election winner'

I see Boris is banging the no deal drum. He won't get it through parliament so what's the point .

To appeal to the party members who will not than likely appoint him? I see Murdoch has given him his seal of approval today in the Sunday Times so its virtually a done deal.

Whomever gets in as PM starts off on a worse footing that May had 3 years ago, much worse. She had a reasonable majority and her party was popular enough. Now a thankless task as their Governing Party is as unpopular as it's possibly ever been and still torn in 2, they do not have the numbers in Commons either and are still reliant on DUP.

Feels like Boris will win, maybe not. He seems very quiet. Gove has blown it imo - why did this cocaine thing come out now and not 3 years ago when he was running for PM then? Blackmail?

I wondered about Gove, someone was going to use it against him.

I feel so sorry for the 100,000 OAP's from South of Preston who have to put their teeth in, set their blue rinse and then go out and vote for a new PM.
What a choice.

You really are a nasty divisive troll.

I dont think the last election made a difference. The division between brexiteers and remainers would have still paralysed the outcome.

I see Boris is trying to woo the average voter with tax cuts for those earning between 40 and 80k

Now offering tax cuts for the rich subsidised by the poor..…...true one nation Tory standards.
England is going to vote this numptie in as PM, please beam me up Scottie.

The median UK income is £28500. He's actually trying to woo the average rich person. Plus ca change ...

I’m pretty sure robinthehood was being VERY sarcastic.

You're right. Mea culpa! Sorry RtH.
Still, always good for people to remember what normal is, and what Tory is...
