If the parliamentary party decided to go for a fresh leader the next problem would be ‘Who.’
The high command have had an iron grip on selection of candidates for decades now; this has resulted in a sausage factory system that attempts to turn out identikit politicians who have no ideas of their own and simply follow orders like the cannon fodder they are. Only the very brightest can negotiate their way around selection by obfuscation and smoke and mirrors. Anyone with a true Conservative ideology is got rid of early doors.
I would be interested to know who other readers think could do the job.
I'd prefer Penny M to Kemi. Yes I know women. penises but she keeps a weather eye on youth who are far more tolerant of alphabettery. Kemi, I see nothing she's done to warrant her elevation while Penny eats the Opposition like wasp butties. Modern times maybe but even Obama wasn't full afro. Are we ready for a Nigerian PM? Labour don't push that angle of diversity, Starmer's triumvirate, Reeves Rayner and Gray are very anglo saxon.

Fair point Yorkie - I would suggest a Braverman/Jenrick combo but Badenoch and Mordaunt seem to be the most discussed choices - for now.

If Sunak stays the Tories will be wiped out.
