Will take Rishi but would have preferred Boris back

Wish they would stop discussing his ethnicity. This will just polarise views of certain people and cause extremist views. Let the guy just get on with it.

Hopefully we’ve now seen the back of fan club politics and can now get on with the business of real politics as we have two perceived grey men in power and in opposition. They’ll be judged on application and policy rather than would they make a good children’s entertainer.

It sounds like he’s made his first sensible decision. Rees-Mogg is out of government.

These pricks will say anything if they think it will benefit them.

In an about-turn from previous comments, he told The Telegraph today that he no longer believed Sunak is a "socialist". He made the claim during the summer's Tory leadership race when Sunak refused to commit to the same level of tax cuts as Liz Truss.

"The leader of the Conservative Party is clearly not a socialist," Rees-Mogg told today's Telegraph, adding that the party needed to unite behind the PM to avoid losing in future elections.

That man has no shame.

Just to counter that Rabb is back.

Just to counter that due to the intellectual purge of 2019 he probably has no choice.

 

[skybluetony176]

Cancel that good decision. In a rare moment of decency Rees-Mogg has done what’s best for the country and resigned from government. You would hope Sunak would have jogged him on anyway but…

Absolutely agree. It's totally unnecessary to do this and it's irrelevant but it's okay for the BBC etc to do it .

It's a big achievement, shows we are indeed a multicultural society and, for that matter, that the Tories start to shed their inherant racism that has dogged them in the past wrt choosing candidates. The bigger question is why *wouldn't* you mark that he's the first British Asian Prime Minister?

No one is talking about it more than the Tories. Despite their anti wokerarty front they ain’t half pushing that they’re meeting quotas whether that be female PM’s, first non white PM, most diverse cabinet in history etc. etc. it’s political correctness gone mad I tell you.

Is it normal for a new PM to have so many resignations on their first afternoon? Don’t recall it with Truss, got a couple refusing to take demotion choosing to be sacked instead. Maybe uniting his party might be a bigger ask than many thought and I think most people acknowledge that it was a big ask in the first place. Going to be an interesting couple of days.

 

[skybluetony176]

Maybe he asked to see a list of the opportunities Jacob found while Brexit opportunities minister.

Sunak is their gift horse. If they're too stupid to realise that really why are we not holding an election this side of Christmas

My prediction for 2024:

Pitiful turnout and an effective re-run of the 2010 election with two sides pledging austerity "because all the money (that we are the sole issuer of) has run out".

I cannot see the huge Labour majority predicted currently but it should win back the 'red wall'.

I reckon it’ll end up with a hung parliament with Labour taking power.

I don’t think it’s a massive shock. They’ve probably been given the heads up that they’ve not got positions in the new cabinet so are resigning for the benefit of their egos.

Yeah, I think it’s something to be proud of as a country….even if they had to swerve the members vote to get there

Yeah, it's a wonderful achievement that another public school, Oxford PPE graduate has been appointed as Prime Minister, how groundbreaking.

He's a fucking idiot more like.

Zahawi .
What a joke .
His judgement over the last six months has been farcical.

To be fair I think May and Truss were from local comps….they’re probably not a ringing endorsement for public education though !!! I agree in an ideal world it would be great to move away from the Oxford graduate PMs but that shouldn’t diminish it being a positive moment for the country to have its first Asian PM

Cleverly as foreign secretary as well ?!

That is the weirdest wave I’ve ever seen.

He makes Ed Milliband look fluent and normal.

 

[rexo87]

It's a horrible time to be PM with social media! I hate the Tories but he's getting pelters on his first day for the way he waved...

Fucking hell what is he doing.

Braverman back in as Home Sec just days after she resigned/was sacked for breaching ministerial code.

I know he needs to appease the right of the party but fuck me is he trying to beat Truss' record for shortest serving PM?!
