Weihrauch17 Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) The Tory Party Members will be presented with a choice of two Nett Zero WEF zealots no doubt, the whole thing is a farce. If thet supposedly get to choose they should be able to pick from the full list of candidates. Edited July 10, 2022 by Weihrauch17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they do at the first vote, then those with the least votes subsequently get eliminated till there are just two to go head to head.

Weihrauch17 Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 Just now, Dave-G said: I think they do at the first vote, then those with the least votes subsequently get eliminated till there are just two to go head to head. Yes but it is the MP's who whittle it down to two who the Tory Party Members then get to choose from, I am saying the Tory Party Members not MP's should get to choose from the full list of Candidates. As it is they will be presented with a Hobsons choice of two pro Nett Zero WEF Muppets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 Can you imagine the chaos of Party members voting a dozen times, or would you opt for whoever got the most votes first time around? That could result in a Prime Minister who polled less than 20% of the votes. The voting hasn't even started, but the choice has been whittled down to "two pro Nett Zero WEF Muppets". Perhaps this knowledge should be shared with the bookmakers. The two pro Nett Zero WEF Muppets could be named, to save our time speculating.

Dave-G Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 Well gang members battle it out to decide who is leader - not their wives or mates. First past the post doesn't suit everyone either but them's the current rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobba Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) Is the Biased Broadcasting Corporation showing it’s colours too early? A Jeremy Hunt long slot on the 9 o’clock Sunday morning show and again another 10 mins now on the News at 08.10. Others are not getting that degree of exposure. Talk about me, me me, blather. I have done this, that, etc etc. I wouldn’t trust the Gob **** with my favourite marble Edited July 11, 2022 by Bobba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-G Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 As has been mooted earlier in the thread, and I say this with a smile: Boris could still get good numbers backing him I think. If nothing else it would help eliminate most of the other contenders. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 When Boris delivered Brexit (someone will be along to say it isn't yet delivered - which shows they are in denial), got a grip on Covid vaccines (again, some will point out it wasn't perfect), released us from lockdown early etc etc, he was doing well in polls. Come Partygate, his stock fell, along with the poll ratings. People are now trying to re-write history and rubbish all of his achievements. Nothing so fickle or possessing very short memories as the British public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about to type very similar comments, unless there are some great candidates with great support then Boris may not be moving out.
