May getting a lot of new backers amongst MPs ATM. Gove too, but less so.

Looks like Boris might get hung out to dry here. Though quite a few Boris supporters amongst MPS have at least not jumped ship, though many refuse to say whether they will change allegiance.

Boris and Gove must have had a dust up, so Mrs May will be heavy favorite I think.

When the entire Conservative Party say "not me mate" who can they offer it up to? Dig up Thatcher?

Boris not running, didn't see that coming. Calculated gamble that whoever takes it on now with all the uncertainty in the country, the role is f*cked regardless possibly.

Politics is genuinely really entertaining at the moment, couldn't write this stuff! Makes House of Cards looks tame.

 


The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

Poisoned chalice.

Imagine offering this up in a shop window:

"You might potentially get to put your name on the UK breaking up and organise the terms of Brexit which will make approximately half the population want to kill you regardless of what terms you put in place".

I don't reckon Boris ever wanted it.

That happens with all Tory govts so nothing new.

As soon as Gove stood I knew Boris probably wouldn't beat Theresa May even though it goes down to 2 at the last vote.

I've now gone from:

May before Boris (although depending his document on intentions)

to:

I don't know on either May or Gove. They both possibly want to get as much as the referendum result said it wanted.
