I just found out that Penny Muardant is one of them childless freak career women. Which should automatically ban her from the leadership race and Parliament, if i had my way. She's also intellectually barren.
The Guardian carries a weekly column by the deputy political editor of the right wing magazine The Spectator and I’ve read plenty of articles written by Conservative MPs in there down the years. The Guardian is “predictable” to the extent that it has a political position and, by and large, it reflects that, but show me a UK National newspaper that doesn’t do that - even the Daily Star carries political headlines on occasions these days and the former Independent is no longer that, all of them are “predictable” to varying degrees.
You've said this before Bob, and I'm not sure why, it doesn't seem fair. This is a forum, by definition people are expressing a view and then inviting others to respond - I suppose we could all bookend each post with I think at the start and do you agree? at the end, but I think that's a given isn't it?
The discussion isn't over, and if you can't think of a response, that isn't my problem! There are people with far worse writing styles on here than me as you well know.
Tobias Ellwood has had the Tory whip withdrawn - that’s what happened to Penny Maurdent’s missing vote.

Badenoch out just as she was topping the latest poll of Tory party members. Having seen that poll, it seems to me that Truss will become our next Prime Minister.
How about this for a long shot? I can’t see many Badenoch supporters switching to Sunak, so, with that poll appearing to confirm he’s got no chance of winning the members vote, would his MP supporters realise the game is up for him and start switching their votes to Truss and Maudent and we get two women contenders?
Think it’s a bit too far fetched, but not by much - Truss is surely going to get more of the Badenoch vote than Maudent, but I honestly believe she’s the worst of the last five candidates as far as winning the next election for the Tories is concerned.
While I tend to agree with your analysis in your final paragraph Bob, as I pointed out in another thread, probably the only chance she has is if she picks a decent Cabinet rather than Boris Johnsons which had too many yes men (or women) and nonentities.
Unfortunately since both Jacob Rees-Mogg and Nadine Dorries backed her strongly at the start, I fear she may include them again.
