    Rumour has it the next hustings will be at Anglesey.

    I’d rather the next one was on the moon or Mars but Anglesey will have to do.

    ‘Don’t understand why they should pick Truss who is totally hopeless. And nasty. Suits me. More chance of a Labour government with her as leader.’

    Absolutely Moe, Sunak was the lesser of two evils for me so I wanted him to win as he’d had have been less damaging for the country (despite being a better prospect for their election chances). Now it’s seemingly a done deal we may as well accept it and await electoral carnage.

    1.07 Truss, 13.5 Sunak – I’m sure this is the shortest she’s been.

    The well above-average BMI person who identifies as female is clearing her throat….

    Does anybody know when the overseas hustings are taking place for the non-British citizens/residents who are members that don’t have the vote in the UK but do in this?

    The media has been strangely quiet on this issue.

    The latest poll of Tory members had 66% backing Truss and 34% supporting Sunak.

    The YouGov survey of 1,089 was conducted from 12-17 August.

    The percentages were calculated by excluding undecided members and non-voters.

    I do wonder whether or not the votes already cast get opened as they come in. I’m sure that info would find its way into the market if they do.

    We’re heading for a landslide – and all those Tory MPs who never voted for her (she only just scraped second place) are frantically climbing aboard The Truss Bus as it rolls into town.

    Interesting, this:

    Wonder what possible explanation there might be? 🤔

    Less racism, I reckon, than ‘The hand that wields the dagger never wears the crown;’ still many Johnson apologists in the Tory party.
    Don’t like either of them, but at least Sunak cuts a more fluent and articulate prime ministerial figure. Truss looks out of her depth

    That’s the only other plausible explanation.

    I suspect a combination of the two tbh.

    1.07 Truss, 14 Sunak – traders profit-taking or an actual glimmer of hope for Sunak?

    1.08 Truss, 12.5 Sunak – the slight market unease continues.

    I really, REALLY, want Truss to win it – I am struggling to think of a PM with a manifestly lower IQ than her in the history of British politics.

    She is the one the Tory members seem to want – and she is the one Labour members probably want even more!
