I wouldn’t. He very clearly took the pics that kicked it all off.
He's the one person I feel kind of sorry for, as he seemed to get fined for turning up to a meeting early!
Mordaunt refuses Johnson request to drop out of contest - reports
As reported at 3:38pm, PA Media is reporting a line briefed out that Boris Johnson asked Penny Mordaunt to drop out of the leadership race and to back him.
“Sources close to the Leader of the House of Commons” told the news agency that Mordaunt refused, warning that most of her support would switch to Rishi Sunak if she did.
Apparently he got booed as he boarded the plane to come home.Johnson is getting desperate it seems.
Thoroughly enjoying the thought of him cutting his holiday short, expecting everyone to welcome his heroic return, only to be told to fuck off by everyone except the headbangers.
Dubious he has anything like 100 if her is begging other people to drop outRishi creeping up and up 142 ,Boris up by is it,6 today so an 106?
Boris backers fear Sunak lacks clout in the world stage…
I mean, he does. But the alternative is Boris?
Well this'd be... fun?
It's the collatoral damage (us!) that bothers me!The more they rip themselves apart the better

It's whether it's reversible though, and I fear a long slog ahead...Well there will be plenty, although given the increases in everything from mortgages to fuel bils Im not sure how much people can absorb, but the more they trash their reputation the better in the long term.

'It wasn't their fault [about mortgages and pensions], the Bank of England set the interest rate in response to hyperinflation, which was on the cards for the West since the pandemic and made worse by Russia. The government can only fine tune the outcome and the outcome will be similar in any case. It's going to be bad regardless, even if Starmer was in.'
May as well let him have a go then, every other bugger's had their turn!A Tory friend has just written

Thats true to an extent, however, the mini budget shambles added another 1% or so on. Yields have dropped since Hunt came in although crept back up when Johnson threw his hat in the ring. Your friends right that inflation and interest rates would still be bad whoever was in charge though
It's disappointing that internationally there wasn't a co-ordinated approach to the QT among them all as in the face of it all I'd have expected the same.Thats true to an extent, however, the mini budget shambles added another 1% or so on.

I find the idea 'well it's bad no matter who's in charge' to be a bit of a deflection. So let's not bother with political parties or a government at all if that's the case
Yeah, i agree. There’s still varying levels of shitness !

For context the individual in question, a British Asian, has said in the past that 'if I were in charge of the government, I wouldn't be letting in people like me'.
You mates with Bravermann ?
