I thought Penny’s go to phrase was “FIGHT!”

It would be fitting given the conservative leadership is in a constant state of “HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER!”*

*this is a videogame joke

Think this is reasonably positive for Rishi (apart from the 18 point deficit). Even Mordaunt (who Labour haven't lined up yet) only does a bit better.

Yeah but Penny has magic weapon.

The correct answer is that over three quarters of respondents haven’t a fucking Scooby who these people are. Although Sun readers may recognise Penny in her bathing suit.

Yep.

Say what you like about Bozo, he was known and had built up his “brand” (proper Brexiter) over 3 years before May was forced out, and there was a major constituency for it.

Not the same as “here’s another person you don’t know, we wish we’d chosen instead of Truss and Sunak”

He’s lost two junior ministers, Robert Halton and James Heappey. Seems surprising. Halton has announced he’s retiring as an MP. Heappey has already announced that.

Robert Halfon has done a lot of work around education and training so he will probably have a nice cushy job lined up with an academy chain. If he is required to wait 6 months before taking up a job outside of government that 6 months would just end as the next academic year starts.

Assuming that he obeys ACOBA, which a lot of them don't.

Funny they both quite on the same day.

Is Deputy Chairman some kind of joke by the Oxbridge Tories?

You know that saying "they'd elect a chimp with a blue rosette".

"They" don't live in Stoke on Trent North.

A sixth-wit, braying thug whose entire purpose is to woo the potential ReFlux defectors.

Another slice in the death of a thousand cunts. What a time to be alive.

I saw some analysis recently that suggested that most Reform voters aren't waiting to come home to the Tories. But I suppose the Tories don't have many options.

The posh boys just cannot stop taking the piss out of the plebs

Maybe I'm enjoying this too much.

I'm watching the political powerhouse which caused misery for three quarters of my life.
The braying pricks who thought "daddy's money" made them something at university.
The boarding school wankers who through press and politics jobs would ultimately yield "their turn to rule".
And the grifting bastards who sought to monetise every element of public life.

That lot, all herded into a metaphorical Hindenberg - all going down in flames together.

Ohh! The inhumanity. Give me more.

Happened to be the last day an GE could be called for May so I assume that was the plan.

So they now know it's October, so ready to go when they lose their Parliamentary salary and the 6 months is done?

Urgh, six more months of this. It's only going to get worse.

Just one poll, and only in Wales. But it's not good.

Wales was a good area for UKIP in 2015, (13.6%), but I think 15% for Reform looks too high.
