Next permanent manager of the Conservative and Unionist Party 2024

[Bully Wee Villa]

I can think of a fairly obvious reason why the members wouldn't vote for Badenoch.

Is everything that black and white with the Tory members?

Yes, it probably is.

 

Anyway, it's Poundland penny for me.

 

 

 

Edit: Or maybe not!!

It's a bit like being manager of Man United- better wait until the next guy gets sacked before making your move. 

If there is a big wipeout then there might not be much to choose from. If it's a candidate from the right of the Tories (flog everything off, kill the poor, hang immigrants) then Keef is guaranteed two terms at least. 

May as well give it to Yogi "guid, honest, fascists"..

A real shame Mordaunt is getting emptied as she probably would be a good pick for them. A decent chance of reconciling the wing nut and 'normal' wings of the party and producing stirrings in the Mail/Telegraph sexually retired demographic.

I can’t think of any Tories getting emptied that I would consider a shame.

Well yeah, it's a shame for them.

I couldn't give a f**k what loser they pick.

A less obvious one is that compared to Cruella she's a weak kneed leftie. She plays the culture warrior fruitloop but she refused to go along with automatically anulling every law made in cooperation with the EU, Rees Mogg's plan to shove children back up chimneys and truly liberate capitalism.

Actually, after looking at the odds, I might go for Steve Barclay. The new make up of MPs is hard to gauge and after the Truss debacle they might sensibly disenfranchise the members. Barclay looks the part, has been a safe pair of hands in his unremarkable cabinet career, played down the middle to avoid annoying the factions, does OK on TV, so at 40/1 could be worth a punt. Haven't looked at his constituency prospects yet though. 

P. S. A bit like how John Major and Theresa May got in.

There are also shades of gray.

For those not entirely bald.

Priti 'vacant' Patel gets some big name backing. 

 

Good to know that being anti woke is the most important thing. More important than being conservative or passionate about the union.

Who’s Jeffrey Donaldson supporting?

I see Braverman made an early bid to steal herself the "we were nowhere near cunty enough" ground. So early, in fact, that she started it the day before the General Election.

It’ll not be her.

Which would be cause for celebration, if that wasn't against the backdrop of it just being some other equally as repellent piece of shit instead.

Despite the Tories being utterly depraved, I don't think they have anyone quite as evil as Braverman.

Makes Priti Patel seem reasonable.

Slim pickings for these losers.

A battle of the Nigels would be quite fitting.

When everyone else looks like the comedy option compared to "Yogi Hughes".

Nigel Huddleston is surely a made up name. This bookie is taking the piss.

I do not see the Tories electing Badenoch as their leader.
