Early one to look out for is Swindon South (approx 00:30) which could (and very likely will) see the return of former MP Heidi Alexander if she beats former minister Robert Buckland
SO my nomination for the possible Portillo moment is James Not So Cleverly
Cleverly missing, there is an outside chance! 4am and that will seriously be a Portillo moment
Erm… Mark French-name there’s another one I'll celebrate wildly. Celebrity endorsements are bad enough but “I've known Mark for a period of time” is hardly a great intro…
No it’s the brother of the previous one that was similar that we had to change when the representative for Wellingborough actually lost his seat in a by-election. Hopefully we’ll need a third one on Friday but the choice will be limited
McVile does have a history of losing…
Braverman would absolutely be a Portillo moment (so would Badenoch but can’t see that at all - Sunak slightly more likely)
There's also JRM
Sadly I have a feeling you may be denied that opportunity. Hope I'm wrong obviously and if I am wrong, there’s a little bit of Japanese Whiskey in the cupboard for that moment.
