[Politics] Next Conservative Leader - Rishi Sunak

[Bodian]

I feel that if Johnson The Liar had got his 100 nominations he would have declared by now. I reckon he's desperately ringing round bribing MPs with this and that right now.

Apparently, Penny Mordaunt has been offered a top job (chancellor you would assume) by Boris to stand down and pull her support behind him. I believe that she has politely declined for now.

 

[vegster]

I don't think Johnson has the numbers. He charmed some of his looney supporters in to nominating him but I think he is not quite at 100, that would be why he has pressured Mordaunt in to standing aside. Johnson's narcissism means he can't enter a popularity vote that he might lose as that would be devastating for his ego.

He had talks with Sunak yesterday and nothing was resolved about an agreement hence todays attempt on Mordaunt.

He is a busted flush, he's not got the support, good riddance.

 

[Wozza]

I really, really want him to get exactly 99 nominations (and for those 99 to leave politics asap).

Quite enjoyed watching people point out to Nadhim Zahawi, who has today backed Johnson, that he implored him to quit just a few months ago:

Absolutely spineless. Just another self-serving piece of shit.

Knows he'd never get a job under Sunak, knows he'll never get the top job after bare faced opportunism last time back fired.

So happy to prostitute himself for some potential crumbs off Bojos table.

The definition of a grubby shameless politician.

I believe he is currently being investigated by HMRC regarding some of his business ventures, additionally he claimed expenses for heating his stables, which he claimed was an oversight on his part.... yet he got trusted with the job of Chancellor of the Exchequer ?

If - and it’s a big if - the LIAR doesn’t achieve the 100 backers by tomorrow, will he get his supporters to invade the 1922 committee crying foul and fix. Jacob Rees Mogg in a Davy Crockett hat and Mad Nad tooled up leading the fray.
Johnson seems to have learned a lot of Trumpian ways over these last couple of years.

[Bodian]

Doesn't actually say 'we have 100'. More smoke and mirrors from Johnson's team?

 

[nwgull]

Various people have been claiming that since yesterday morning. It’s possibly a desperate attempt to get more MPs to support him if they think he’s going to win and can get in the next boss’s good books. The public declarations of support are nowhere near 100.

.. and he hasn't even declared he is running.

He has 58 publicly declared supporters. You can vote and remain anonymous for who you voted for.

Will the silent majority carry BJ over 100?

 

[rogersix]

Oh Wodger, you are one of those easily led types constantly looking for approval in the NSC echo chamber. We all have anonymous pseudonyms wodge and poking fun at the sanctimonious know it alls on social media is hardly punching down.

Less arse licking, wipe the excrement from your face and develop some coherent independent arguments.

it strikes me as odd, having multiple accounts, all that unecessary faff, for what benefit?

are you really that ashamed/embarassed about what you post?

but the conducting of a conversation amongst yourself is a matter of some genuine concern

simplifying your decision making process is a step on the path to enlightenment

He's got 76. 24 short. That fanatics site KG mentioned, guido fawkes has a live spreadsheet of public confirmations plus those who have confirmed but can't publically reveal their nominations (guess that's like 1922 committee etc) just under 100 still undeclared.

Ridiculous situation now where he won't declare candidacy without confirmed numbers as a narcissist, but others won't back him unless he does. It's another Johnson smoke & mirrors shitshow.

He won't declare he is running unless he has the numbers to stand a good chance of winning. All the time he's quiet he's short..and getting shorter as others go public for Sunak.

Boris has pulled out,

Boris has pulled out,

I wish his dad had.

So Boris drops out…welcome to the multimillionaire prime minister
