    Is she on board with this idea? At this point the leadership isn’t so much a poisoned chalice as it is a live grenade. Wouldn’t it be better to let Sunak be blamed for the defeat and take over leadership of the Tory party after the election? I’m sure she said in the past that she isn’t interested in taking the party to the polls.

        She’s pretty much the only way the situation could get worse. But it won’t happen because she’s only popular with the hardline Tories, the one nation Torres (what I call Tory Classic) don’t like her. They don’t really like Mordant if it comes to it, but she’s less extreme and so more acceptable to them.

          I think you are underestimating the ability of the Tories to dig deeper.
