    Another electoral defeat in five years (that’s assuming either of them last that long).

    That’ll be Jenrick then, can’t see the membership vote for a black woman. She would be hilarious though as she’s both incredibly stupid and arrogant. Both are nasty pieces of work.

        Yep you might be right. And let’s not forget that the cons base voted for Truss so everything is possible… Regardless who wins, they’re both going to try and get voters back from Reform by lurching even further to the right.

          Impossible to do so with an ethnic minority leading the conservatives. Racist/right wing britons won’t vote for an ethnic minority to be prime minister.

            Lol. The Conservatives didn’t lose because Sunak was brown.

            People are so desperate to call out racism that they’ll just start imagining it in places it isn’t. 😂

                  Ok, and the election results has the sample size of … just shy of 11 million right wingers. They said that they’d rather vote for a white man with little chance of getting in due to being a third party over having a brown man in charge.

                  How do I jump to this conclusion? The radio caller confirms what we know from being exposed to these kinds of people, and the election is quantitive proof of it too.

      “conservatives are raciss lol”

      Kemi will win as she’s been the favourite with the members all along, and Jenrick has the charisma of a wet tea towel.

    Don’t have a horse in the race really but I particularly dislike Jenrick so would have rather seen Badenoch vs Cleverly
