chrisp65 Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 I like what’s happening to the Tory’s few months of quiet boring competence. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markavfc40 Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 (edited) So three by elections now and perhaps one or two more rats will desert in the next couple of days taking that up to 4 or 5 by elections. If Sunak was to lose them all he'd be toast and surely we'd have to be looking at a General Election as another Tory leadership contest, and them inflicting another PM on us, would be farcical even by Tory standards.

That’s just what they'll do though Especially if say Boris forms a new political party… Which I'd absolutely welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ml1dch Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Suggestions that the reason Dorries et al weren't on the honours list as expected is that apparently they were supposed to resign in advance, as they couldn't even be nominated as sitting MPs. But nobody bothered to tell them. So they didn't resign and the list just went through without them on it. Hence the panicky resignations yesterday, but still too late. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they not read the newspapers, or listen to the commons chatter about Boris' resignation honours list over the last few weeks and months? It was pretty much out there in the open, plenty of stories about it, even a list of those that were thought to be going to resign and those that weren't. IIRC Alister Jack refused a peerage precisely because he didn't want to resign early even though he's not seeking re-election. There was a whole debate as to whether it was possible to give someone a peerage but they not start it until the next General Election and constitutional experts said it wasn't possible Nah that one doesn't fly at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
