Oh no!! Brexit not going quite as well as hoped

[Bromptonaut]

Liz Truss is an absolute joke of a politician. I can't imagine she's taken seriously in any negotiations she's part of. Well, she shouldn't be by anyone who's done due diligence and researched her background.

But according to commentary on Tom Newton Dunn's prog yesterday morning Truss is the likely successor if Johnson walks in front of the proverbial bus. Very popular with the Tory Membership apparently.

Ive two teenagers....when you've been drip fed Joey Essex/Harry Styles ( I'll admit to singing along to Harry when nobodys around ) and constant loud Grime from my son I'll pass on any more utter garbage 😁

You have my sympathies, though I do think that Harry Styles is very easy on the eye, especially in a dress.

I haven't heard the programme, but Jesus wept... The UK is being run by utter incompetents. It's embarrassing that the population have been totally and utterly conned.

More chance of Starmer being the next PM than Lizzie....and he's no chance !

Not an expert on the Conservative Party Leader, selection process, but, I thought it was Conservative MPs who made the selection, not the Membership?

Is it not that logic which got us into the current mess?

Both have a role. MP votes produce a shortlist of two with the final choice between them left to the membership.

In 2019 it was Johnson v Jeremy Hunt.

In 2016 it was going to be Theresa May v Andrea Leadsom but the latter withdrew.

Let me clarify what constitutes a safe port... clearly being left rudderless in a 60 foot swell on the Cape of Wrath with the captain giggling in the wardroom does not.

Surely that depends on the competency of the Captain?
