What's next ref Suellagate? 10:47 - Nov 14 with 4481 views | bluelagos | So Sunak's move was fairly clear - sacked Suella, cleared out some of the cr*p and clearly shifted the govt towards the center. The "New Conservatives", "The common sense" group and other Suella cheerleaders will be miffed - they were clearly behind her and will be far from happy at recent moves. One letter of no confidence has gone in (From Andrea Jenkins) but that aside seems very quiet with very little noise from them (Including Tom Hunt, vice chairman of the Common Sense group). Even Rees-Mogg half welcomed Cameron's appointment. So what's next? Are they going to go for Rishi or hold their ire until after the election? Just waiting 'til Wednesday's court ruling on the Rwanda scheme? Or are they are a busted flush? Can the post Brexit realignment really be being ditched and are the experiments of letting the far right Brexiteers run things finally be a thing of the past? Thoughts?

What's next ref Suellagate? on 14:00 - Nov 14 by Ryorry | "suspect that Suella will be the front runner for leadership from that right wing of the Tory party and have a good shot at leadership" I very much doubt it. She doesn't have the 'charm' factor to rely on that Johnson did once the appalling politics, incompetence & corruption were all laid bare; and I suspect most tory MPs know that she's likely to be very unappealing to even dyed-in-the-wool-blue voters too. |
You're forgetting just how bigoted and stupid most Tory MP's are though. |  |

The likelihood is that the Tories will lose the election, so they're better off letting Sunak be responsible for the defeat and painting themselves as the fresh change the party needs. Of course, a lot of the seeds for that defeat would have been sown by their beloved Johnson and Truss but they're likely to be in a stronger position internally if their hands aren't on the tiller at the time of the election. |  |

Yay, I was right. Turns out he's an untrustworthy sh*tweasel who'll do or say anything to get on and avoid a fight. Who'd have guessed, eh? |  |

You might as well. She's already had imposed herself on the game by being part of the cabal that was encouraging racists to boo players (including black players) who were making an anti-racist gesture (taking the knee). You couldn't make it up. Someone looking back at this period in 50 years time won't believe how utterly irresponsible the government has been over the last few years. |  |

What's next ref Suellagate? on 20:36 - Nov 14 with 427 views | Nthsuffolkblue | I think she fancies herself to do to Sunak what Cummings did/still is doing to Johnson. However, she doesn't realise how much more intelligent Cummings is nor how much genuine dirt he has on Johnson. The biggest problem she has is that most of the dirt she has on Sunak is her own dirt too. Even where that's true for Cummings it doesn't matter because he isn't looking for a populist vote. |  |
