Yes, she did.
Call me crazy but I don't think you should be able to run for Prime Minister if you have committed crimes.
Yes but she is sorry and it was only for the banter.
Penny Mordaunt - what's known in the trade as a belly flop
At least her name is pre-decimalisation but more daunting.
Kemi Badenoch admits she hacked a Labour MP’s website to ‘say nice things about the Tories’

Fascist nazi eliminated
Good. feck off.
Thank Christ for that
Same reaction as everyone else. Pure relief.
So the Brexit lot are gonna get behind Truss?
Seems like Richi Rish will become PM
Truss leading them into an election will be hilarious.
As will Truss trying to unite the various factions of the party.
Sit back and enjoy.

This. I've never known how to approach the topic without coming across in the wrong way. It blows my mind when I see this.
when is the next round of votes?
Tomorrow - Monday?
Isn't there a sky TV debate on Monday night?
Monday, would be surprised if Tugendhat hasn't withdrawn by then.
I guess after the TV debates- the Channel 4 tomorrow is 2am over here, so not sure I can face staying up for that, just to go to bed really angry.
Result not due till Wednesday evening
Christopher Hope, our Associate Editor, writes:
The final two candidates in the Conservative leadership race will not be known until Wednesday evening, I understand.
Members of the 1922 committee have decided to have three ballots on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week.

Just another career politician with no morals, will pander to any trend to move up the ladder. In this case the right wing.
What a bunch of turds for choices 
.
I guess Sunak is the more sane and presentable one that can pass the time until the next GE.

Feels like they see a 'gap in the market' to be a Tory person of colour. Win-win for both sides as the party get to use them to cloak their racism and the MP sells out their morality for money.
Hes got the C4 debate on Friday and ITV on Sunday so Id be surprised if we withdraws over the weekend
I guess there is a vote before the Sky debate on Monday
Would Sunak be the first non-white PM?
He may wait to see what the reaction to the televised debates but think he must realise he has no chance.
Possibly .
Lord Liverpool was reportedly Anglo-Indian and Disraeli was Jewish, and Jewishness today in the UK is covered by the BAME designation.
Non-whites have hardly been in cabinet , let alone PM. Johnson's motives to introduce quite a few was the same reason his most of his allies were a little dim. He thought none of them would be a threat to him.
I still cannot see the Tory Membership made up of mainly elderly white men, still dreaming of the days of the Empire, selecting one of their Commonwealth brethren.
But the membership will be able to educate and civilise that PM, in exchange for most if not all of his wealth.
Yes.
Totally but if he can hold out for the debates... not come accross as an idiot then figure out if hes better jumping onboard with Rishi or Mordaunt he has a good shot of landing a decent job I think... truss / kemi would surely exclude him
But if he could say take 75% of his voters with him to Mordaunt that would put Morduant potentially ahead of Rishi
All of them are Brexiters. Truss is the one most likely to break the law now that Braverman's gone.
None of them seem to realise that Brexit is done. They can't see any benefits, that's their problem.
Whoever gets in has the next five years of implementing what was agreed and given grace periods for. They're starting to run out.
It's the Hunger Games next.
It's also a great career proposition. Nobody better to sell hardline, xenophobic immigration politics than immigrants. People like Patel or Braverman fill these roles,and are in exchange rewarded with wealth, fame and access to the upper circles of society. There are sell outs everywhere, and immigrants are no different than other people.
Whose bright idea was it to schedule the leaderships debate at the same time as the England v Northern Ireland game??
Why do do it on a different day or time, so it doesn't clash with that game??

I dont think any of the candidates will unify this shower.. good news for Labour. The fact that some of them call Rishi a Socialist tells you all you need to know.
