Rishi Sunak - and his miserly Government

1. Bring back Boris. the laziest PM that we've ever had.
2. Suella Braverman. The nastiest minister that we've ever had.
3. Nigel Farage. A guy so full of himself that he thinks that he could become leader of the Torys by 2026.

Sometimes it's be careful what you wish for.

Doing any of them is madness. They would get destroyed in elections and stay out of power for years (not a bad thing)

^ Yes, no-one would vote for them, but there is a precedent of a party electing someone who's never going to win a general election.

Previous examples are when Labour elected Michael Foot and Jeremy Corbyn.
I always believe that Boris was voted in the last time because he was seen as being preferable to Jeremy. He was the better of two evils.

^ I always assumed Boris was voted in because he'd fucked most of the blue rinse brigade over 60 women

4) They could bring back Lix Truss (record holder of being the shortest serving PM in office ib history)??

As for one & two: which is the lesse of two evils)?

I think Johnson's greatest strength was his embodiement of the happy warrior, the guy that told you the future's bright and i'm going to fight for you to get there. There is no doubt in my mind that Boris won the referendum for leave with his positive vision of global Britian striding out into the world on its own boosting trade with the United States, China et al plus £350 milliom a week to the NHS. Had the referendum been left to the likes of Leave.Eu with Farage & co there is no way it was winning.

He also came in as PM at what was a prime moment for him, with the public done with Brexit, taking his deal to the electorate, his promise to level up & the utter hopelessness of Jeremy Corbyn as an opposition leader were an unstoppable trifecta.

Braverman & co have let the right wing media ecosytem convince them they are more popular in the country than they really are. Nigel Farage went on one of the UK's most popular tv shows and it lost a fifth of its season premiere viewers. A quick look at GB News' most popular videos and Farage does not appear until no.26, he has no vids over a million, of the 20 vids that do, 13 are about The Royals, 10 having Harry & Meghan in the title. Keep scrolling down and its all Harry & Meghan interspliced with Philip Schofield & Neil Oliver's rantings. If the right is the future of the party then the Tory manifesto come the 29/30 election will just be one page that says "MEGHAN IS THE REAL RACIST" "SCHOFIELD IS A NONCE" & "SOMETHING SOMETHING VACCINE SOMETHING SOMETHING SOROS"
