The MPs have left the paddock and are now saddled and at the starting line for this National (NO) Hunt hurdle race:
And off they go
Rishi Sunak's charges off and is in the lead in the first few furlongs
Cantering behind is Penny Mordaunt , Liz Truss
Kemi Badenoch Is back in forth , but looks strong and charge through on the rails, in the last mile
Oh no Tom Tugendhat has fallen at the last but one fence .
As they approach the finishing line this may end up as a two horse finish ??
As the race finishes we will get a winner but alas not for the country.
Bet you will be backing Sir Kier Stallion with Angela Reigns In the Utopia Stakes :hehe::hehe:Quote:

Anny result will be good news for labour.
They've got rid of their biggest threat on the government benches now they have to get rid of their biggest threat on the opposition benches!!!!
But even better news for the SNP, electing a Thatcher clone as Tory leader is the biggest boost Sturgeon could hope for, the Tories should be careful what they wish for.
I can't see any of the Tory aspirants being too much of a challenge for Labour to be honest but you're right Liz Truss will be an absolute gift. After their leadership contest is over I'm thinking of sending them a big 'thank you' card.Quote:

Send her a E_Mail card from Moonpig. Only 99p.Quote:

No I think a lovely bouquet is warranted considering how shell finally usher in a competent government. #teamlizQuote:

Cheer up don't be so despondent, Liz will save us all.Quote:

A lot may depend on Monday's TV Debate and the hustings over the next few week. Plus any TV Interviews they give .Sunak is better at all of these, but who knows?Quote:
