@SebastianEPayne · 2h NEW: Liz Truss' leadership bid will launch in the next day or so, allies say, drawing a clear line with Rishi Sunak. "She’s definitely not the continuity candidate on the economy" Truss will pledge tax cuts + supply side reform + EU regulatory divergence |

@Dominic2306 at least 3 current candidates wd be worse than Boris. at least 1 is more insane than Truss, clearly unfit to be anywhere near nuclear codes. at least one a spad shagger. |

Interestingly, Sunak registered his first campaign website domain last year on 23/12/21 - readyforrishi.com
www.whois.com/whois/readyforrishi.com He subsequently registered another a few days ago on 6/7/22 - ready4rishi.com www.whois.com/whois/ready4rishi.com Typing the first domain address takes you to the recent domain, they are certainly linked. Backstabber? |

Virtually guaranteed to keep his place as defence minister, whomever wins the race.

Must be some dodgy pictures of him knocking about

Sunak hasn't come under any fire yet.
Furlough fraud might be tough to explain away. If anyone is interested enough to ask. |
|
By:
Would hegemony, and keeping the Def Sec job, suggest that the seemingly popular Wallace will line up behind fellow Army vet Tugendhat? Seems plausible to me.

Rishi has more baggage than Louis Vuitton ffs

Mordaunt has military connections too and is highly skilled behind the despatch box.

Those that don't have baggage will have secrets.

I agree with Liz Truss not being adept with words, been watching a few interviews of her and she's not that skillful at dodging questions whereas Rishi Sunak is very skillful at dodging difficult questions and rarely scores an own goal.

Ben Wallace in 2016 wrote ' 10 reasons why Northern Ireland is safer,stronger and better off in the EU'(can be found in gov.uk)
The reasons are very true,i know all the runners have contradictary past statements but on the current course re the NIP he would struggle. |

Thought Rishi would have more MPs
Braveman and Badenoch are competing for the same backers Truss won't fair well under the spotlight Tugendhat, cocky bastard, a bit unlikeable. Mordaunt, radio silent but we all know she is extremely capable. Rishi and Penny for me. |
|
By:
Rishi has issues which are likely to be highlighted on multiple occasions by the teams of the other candidates.
|
|
By:
If Nobby likes them, they are clearly unsuitable. Rishi is as dull as dishwater and makes Starmer look charismatic.

Grant Shapps has launched his bid. Surely all the others might as well withdraw now.
|

What name is he using this time?

Shapps started his working life as photocopier sales rep. In 1990, aged 22, Shapps founded PrintHouse Corporation, a design, print, website creation and marketing business in London, based on a collapsed printing business he purchased from the receiver. He stepped down as a director in 2009, but remained the majority shareholder. Shapps founded a web publishing business, How To Corp Limited, with his wife while he was recovering from cancer. The company marketed business publications and software. The existence of at least three people who allegedly provided testimonials for the company has been questioned. Shapps stood down as a director in July 2008; his wife remained as director until the company was dissolved in 2014. In September 2012, Google blacklisted 19 of the Shapps' business websites for violating rules on copyright infringement related to the web scraping-based TrafficPayMaster software sold by them. Shapps's web marketing business's 20/20 Challenge publication also drew criticism. It cost $497 and promised customers earnings of $20,000 in 20 days. Upon purchase, the "toolkit" was revealed to be an ebook, advising the user to create their own toolkit and recruit 100 "Joint Venture Partners" to resell it for a share of the profits. Shapps's use of the names Michael Green, Corinne Stockheath and Sebastian Fox attracted controversy in 2012. He denied having used a pseudonym after entering parliament and, in 2014, threatened legal action against a constituent who had stated on Facebook that he had. In February 2015 he told LBC Radio presenter Shelagh Fogarty, "Let me get this absolutely clear... I don't have a second job and have never had a second job while being an MP. End of story." However, in March 2015, Shapps admitted to having had a second job while being an MP, and practising business under a pseudonym. In his admission, he stated that he had "over-firmly denied" having a second job. Under the name Michael Green, Shapps had offered customers a "get-rich-quick scheme" costing $497, and promised customers a "toolkit" that would earn them $20,000 in 20 days, provided they followed its instructions. In March 2015, Dean Archer, the constituent previously threatened with legal action by Shapps, threatened Shapps with legal action. |

In my opinion, he is favourite to go out in the first ballot.

Shapps not in the next PM market only the next conservative leader market.

I expect they will add him to the next PM market when they have stopped laughing.

By:
I hope we are gonna get a brown/black PM as the white candidates are the worst I have ever seen
Tugendhat is a woke remainer, probably to the left of Starmer. Absolute clown, wanted to carry on the war in Afghanistan and throw Russians out of Britain. Mordaunt is woke too, Truss is already promoted way beyond her ability. |
|
By:
Zahawi is interesting as launching on Monday and will be low tax, pro-Brexit and against rubbish being taught to our kids in school. Some concerns about financials.
Mordaunt a real let down with the woke stuff as being a Brexit supporter had some appeal. |
|
By:
Shapps is easy to laugh at but he has shown willing to shake up Transport while he was there and he's better in front of the camera than most of the contenders.
I just don't think he has enough friends to get anywhere near the run off. |
