The next election will come down to how well whoever wins (and that will be Truss in all probability) addresses the myriad issues, most importantly being the cost of living and lack of success on a range of other key stuff. And that really depends on forming and motivating a very good cabinet to get things done. Snag is, there aren't enough solidly capable Tory MPs to work with; enough for the major offices perhaps but no more than that!

Yeah because its Xenophobic to question illegal economic migrants when you are in the government. They should according to some around here welcome anyone who lands on our shore regardless of intent or how they affect the current citizenry, feck me you lot are naive. Of course looking at all the candidates selected by the party their Xenophobia was obvious.

These 2 are in a party full of xenophobe MPs and members who put them in the last 2 places to be PM ... at the very least they are complicit although I'm happy to be proven otherwise if one comes to power and sorts their party out.

And don't forget, these are a group who have binned their best chance of winning an election over something completely trivial and for which he has apologised at some length, and at the worst possible time for a change of leader. The former is something for which he should be punished, but the latter shows just how much they care for the country above their own inflated sense of importance.
Thankfully, Sir Snoozefest is in no position to capitalise on it.

Sadly for you (luckily for the country) there is no chance of Labour getting near the throne any time soon.
