Not really, a black woman who thinks black people are not discriminated against isn’t winning votes from the black community. 

I think she's willing to overlook the discrimination that exists for personal gain rather than truly believing it doesn't exist. Either way the results the same.

My point is of all the current candidates she will be the hardest to portray as a cliched Tory. She’s young, articulate and not yet another rich white middle aged male trying to run the country. I’m pretty certain Labour would rather fight an election against Jeremy Hunt than her. 

 

Voted: Against higher taxes on banks, For Brexit, Against marriage equality for LGBT+ people, For stricter asylum, Was director of the far right Spectator publication.

Oh she's a tory alright. She better not drink a can on mojito on her evening commute

[TD_LFC]

She's a tory, she's not drinking anything from a can, she'll have her entourage brought from economy to mix it at her seat before having them dragged back to slum it with the masses dragging the Fortnum and Masons hamper behind them.

This is a quote from speech she made in April 2021:

 

”The report shows that disparities do persist - that racism and discrimination remain a factor in shaping people’s life outcomes. And it is clear about the fact that abhorrent racist attitudes continue in society, within institutions, and, increasingly, online”

 

I think it’s hard to make the point that she  believes racism doesn’t exist. 

[Jack the Sipper]

She's flavour of the week in the same way Rory Stewart was (albeit for different reasons) back in 2019. Most of the people banging on about her now on social media didn't know a fucking thing about her this time last week. Now she's laughably portrayed as Labour's worst nightmare because she's, apparently, not like the traditional Tories that, er, have been beating Labour in elections for the majority of the past century, including of course the present middle-aged posh working-class loathing white male scruffy cunt cult leader.

 

It's like political transfer muppetry. She'll be out halfway through the process and suddenly their true saviour will be Truss, Patel, or whatever typical hard-right Tory is still standing.

[clangers]

I don't think it matters who they elect now they're discredited outside of their hardcore support not dissimilar to the 1990's.

 

Despite winning an 80 seat majority they weren't even able to govern for a single term without self-combusting. No major policy issue or tiny majority here.

I agree 

Going to end up with Sunak vs whichever right wing loon is left standing and the blue rinse mob will do the rest . Heady days indeed

That Braverman seems to be a proper bastard. A part of her manifesto is to cut benefits.

 

Leadership hopeful Suella Braverman says there are "too many people" on benefits and plans to reduce the cost of the welfare state if she becomes prime minister.

Asked by the BBC how she would pay for her tax reduction proposals, the attorney general calls for a spending review to look at "where we can properly cut back on inefficient usage of tax payer's money" in the size of the state and civil service.

Braverman adds she is "very interested in looking at the welfare bill" as a way to pay for tax reductions. 

Her tax proposals include lowering corporation tax, as well as a cut in VAT on fuel and energy bills.

Braverman says the government must be "more rigorous in the entitlements to benefits" to make sure there is greater incentives to get people "back into economic activity".

Quote Message: Whilst Universal Credit made some very important progress, we still have far too many people who are of working age, healthy and choosing to work part time and have their full time wage topped up by welfare and therefore tax payers money."

I fucking love Clive Lewis. Unfortunately I dont think he's got the delivery from the dispatch box to be a leader, but maybe one day. 

[Anubis]

Worrying thread. Particularly in light of the dickheads who have thrown their hat into the ring for the leadership contest.

I think it’s going to be Sunak versus Mourdant and she will win by a huge margin. The members wont forgive Sunak for bringing down Boris. Mourdant then makes Badenoch the chancellor, Truss as. foreign secretary and Patel as Home Secretary. We end up with a right wing all female senior Government team. May you be cursed to live in interesting times.

Mourdant or Tugboat are imo the two who will cause Labour and Starmer most trouble.

 

I think Starmer will expose Sunak quite quickly. Remember the mess Sunak made of selling his budget? He'd be found out in an election campaign. Plus it'll be a tory civil war if he wins as Johnson, Nads, Moog, Truss and a few others will openly show they detest him.

So we all want Fishy Rishi to win then?

Truss for me, daft as a brush and demented. Will fill her cabinet with the same old Johnson headbangers like Rees Mogg and Nads although we'd be taking a big gamble on the public voting her out before she declares war on France.

She's the one Labour needs to fear, she's miles better than the other candidates.

[Jack the Sipper]

I think, at least as things stand now, the only candidate Labour need to fear is Mourdant, the only one that can unite the party at both parliamentary level and across Tory country. Hopefully, enough MPs will look past her towards some weirdo like Truss when giving the vote to the members, even though she'll probably be PM for two years as a result.

 

Short term pain and all that.

I thought Tugendhat would pull away but I don’t think so now

[Captain Willard]

The members won’t vote for Sunak. He deposed their beloved Boris.  I am astonished that the MPs backing him can’t see that. Anyone up against him will win in the member vote.
