“Time to back the Tories then, Ginge.
After all, value (and the stupidity of the general public) is everything”.
——————
No! Am not going to back the Tories because I can see them drifting a lot more if Truss does what she says she’s going to do – and the cost of living crisis gets worse.
…And the general public are not “stupid”.
I’ve already backed Labour @ 11/10 to win most seats at the next general election.Value Is EverythingAugust 25, 2022 at 19:56 #1612514“And the general public are not “stupid”.”
We’ll have to agree to disagree on that one.
But if there weren’t more idiots than sensible people, your value theory wouldn’t hold much water. 😉

I stood next to him at Newbury by one of the fences one year and didn’t have the courage to speak to him; I’ve always regretted it. When my daughter was studying history I got her to listen to his speech: he died on her wedding day. Put a bit of a damper on the day although I didn’t know about it till quite late in the evening. I’ll always remember him saying ‘ my face is against me’. I admired him so much.
August 27, 2022 at 18:26 #16126641.05 Truss, 20 Sunak.

Teacher no more doom !August 29, 2022 at 11:38 #1612784As we enter the final week of Boris Johnson’s tenure as Prime Minister and the prospect of Liz Truss taking over, I couldn’t help thinking of this clip:

August 29, 2022 at 17:51 #1612820Looks like no more stops en route for “The Truss Bus,” it’s heading straight for the terminus, which it expects to be No 10 Downing Street.
BBC: “Liz Truss has pulled out of a BBC One interview with Nick Robinson that was due to air on Tuesday evening. Ms Truss’ team said she could no longer spare the time for the one-on-one programme, the BBC said in a statement. Rishi Sunak, Ms Truss’ rival for the Conservative leadership, was interviewed by Robinson on 10 August. The ballot of Tory party members closes on Friday, with the winner set to be announced next Monday, 5 September.”
1.05 Truss, 20 Sunak.

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"September 1, 2022 at 20:40 #1613049I believe voting closes at 5pm tomorrow and the result will be announced at 5pm on Monday.
If Sunak wins now it will be a shock ranked alongside the Labour landslide against national war hero Winston Churchill at the end of WWII back in the days when there were no opinion polls.
That said, Leave was trading at 15 at Betfair minutes before the first batch of regional voting results were announced on Brexit night!

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"September 1, 2022 at 22:43 #1613052I have to admire your stamina Ian, you seem to have retained some level of enthusiasm throughout. Truss is finally rounding the Elbow of this marathon contest with Sunak still jumping the second last. I got bored somewhere on the first circuit.
I also in an odd way admire the Conservative party. Every time you think they have delivered the worst PM ever, there’s another one waiting in the wings to claim the title.
September 1, 2022 at 22:49 #1613053“Truss is finally rounding the Elbow of this marathon contest with Sunak still jumping the second last.”
Will there be a Devon Loch moment?
Nah.

Abso-Fing-lutely.
I have heard it said that the clever thing about new fashion is it grabs centre stage while simultaneously contriving to make its immediate predecessor look absurd.
The Tory Party seems to have managed the exact opposite.
I never thought there would be a more ludicrous PM than Boris Johnson.
And yet the very next one looks poised to make him look a colossus by way of comparison.
1.04 Truss, 21 Sunak – back to the shortest she’s been.
