So here it is, it’s his First Day.
Who’s going in his Cabinet?
What are his plans?
Will the pound rise?
Will the market turn around?
Is he the messiah or a very naughty boy? |

"what about the flat at No10 ? does he like Boros's expensive wallpaper? has Liz trashed the place?
Liz trashed the country, but probably left the flat in a nice statem"
I'm not so sure, give it a few days and I can imagine the Sunak's saying, "what on earth is that smell" |

"In the least surprising move Jacob Rees mogg jumped before he was pushed… I know those at the cabinet office and BEIS are gutted………..not!  "
He left saying " I will do all I can to support you"
I think he will be doing all he can to stab Sunak in the back for bringing down Boris in his eyes. |

True story... I know someone who was divorcing and the other partner got the house. It was quite acrimonious. So they sewed prawns into the curtain hems. |

It was orchestrated but either she was incompetent or she wasn’t? Sunak has been forced to bring her back, serious error of judgement |

Agreed!
Just on the EU/Brexit tangent, just saw this LOLZ...
EU ambassadors have unanimously approved THE UK’s APPLICATION to join the EU’s project on military mobility.
Oh dear! Brexiters won’t be happy! |

Is this to try to dampen any early revolt by including different sections of the party? Seems more plausible than appointing her due to her talents |

Not much talent to choose from, but Braverman is close behind Truss in stupidity and simple-mindedness. It also means that the Rwanda sh*t-show and small boat agenda will still get shouted loudly about as a distraction with no better solution being considered.
Home Office had probably just finished celebrating.

I get a feeling that the country will be governed by the government and not just the PM, he will listen and lead.
Truss obviously didn't give a fuck what anyone else thought she was doing it her way in some sort of blind copycat of Margaret Thatcher, and as for the lying, cheating, scumbag imbecile that went before her well ..
Lots of people are going to hate him when he brings in the painful budgetary measures that will be necessary but it's the only way out of this mess.
First impressions are good let's hope I'm right.
Here's hoping for a referendum to apply to rejoin the European Union as soon as possible.

It is, but because they are not very good at their jobs they will create problems for him down the line. |

If I recall correctly, Rishi is in favour of the Rwanda idea or at least that's what he said in the previous leadership race. |

He's a tory who was at a garden party in a rich tory area when he bragged about taking financial aid from a deprived area to give to them.
That says it all.  |

Yes that’s absolutely true
I think what the majority of the population were hoping for was to get away from all the lying and incompetence that has characterised the Tory government under Boris and Truss but if you think Rishi is a safe pair of hands then I am afraid his choice of cabinet members is going to mean we are all going to be poorer for it.
We really need a GE asap as otherwise we are in for two more years of this terrible bunch of unimaginative and inadequate bunch |

His inaugural salvo to the assemblage certainly adumbrated the forthcoming fiscal apocalypse!
Harold Macmillan famously patronisingly stated in the 1950s "You've never had it so good!"
Rishi Sunak forewarned us, "You're going to find it really tough" (the severe cutbacks, taxation and other fiscal measures that I believe are necessary) |

Supporting people's right to express their opinions doesn't mean I agree with their opinions.
Also, a minority of people voted for them in the last election. And none of us voted for their new leader. |

The UK doesn’t have “fixed terms” like the US… so the jan 25 date is the absolute latest time they could have a general election…. If roles were reversed and the conservatives were up 30, they could call a snap election tomorrow!
I think the country were prepared to give 1 mulligan…. But to do it again after 6 weeks!!
Millions choose Johnson, 150,000 had the chance to take place to choose truss… and because they balls it up , 350 people chose sunak!!!
Even Tory mps don’t have the nerve to call that democracy….. |

You cry about what Biden is doing and support the out of power Republicans and the former President who lost a democratic vote and cry about your judicial process.

There seem to be a lot of threads and comments that say otherwise.
We also live in a different country with different laws which makes an election possible at any time.
I personally, don't think that the gap in decision making and further knock to market confidence would be an acceptable trade, so wind your neck in.
However, it is a valid desire should somebody feel that it would be correct. |

Except that millions chose the Conservative Party at the last GE. Only the voters of Hillingdon chose Johnson.
The Conservatives won a five year mandate at the last GE.
We also had these arguments when Brown replaced Blair. Funnily enough, Labour didn't acquiesce to Opposition calls for a GE!
No matter how long and loud the Opposition parties bang on about a GE, there isn't going to be one. They would be better off using the time to get their policies out there. |

"Yet there is the fixed term parliament act. You know it's a law."
The Fixed Term Parliament Act 2011 was repealed earlier this year by the Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act 2022.
Even when it was in force, the Fixed Term Parliament Act 2011 didn't stop an election being called early, as demonstrated by the election of 2015 being followed by another in 2017, and another in 2019. |

And at the next election, the media and the Tory PR machine will guarantee five more years. wow this sounds familiar. So what would it take for you to not have the Torry influence. Storming parliament?
What would it have for me not to have Tory influence? Don't really understand.
I'm not in favour of storming parliament. That would not solve anything. Then accept how people vote and quit crying. It's simple right?
The UK doesn’t have “fixed terms” like the US… so the jan 25 date is the absolute latest time they could have a general election…. If roles were reversed and the conservatives were up 30, they could call a snap election tomorrow!
I think the country were prepared to give 1 mulligan…. But to do it again after 6 weeks!!
Millions choose Johnson, 150,000 had the chance to take place to choose truss… and because they balls it up , 350 people chose sunak!!!
Even Tory mps don’t have the nerve to call that democracy…..
Except that millions chose the Conservative Party at the last GE. Only the voters of Hillingdon chose Johnson.
The Conservatives won a five year mandate at the last GE.
We also had these arguments when Brown replaced Blair. Funnily enough, Labour didn't acquiesce to Opposition calls for a GE!
No matter how long and loud the Opposition parties bang on about a GE, there isn't going to be one. They would be better off using the time to get their policies out there."
The opposition parties have every right to demand a general election.
The party was elected on its manifesto.
Other than the fact that three Prime Ministers within one term strongly indicate a party unable to govern itself let alone a country, the last administration pursued completely different policies to those that they were elected on.
How do you form a policy when there is still no assessment on the financial status of the country as it stands?
The Truss Government felt that was a good plan and look where we are now. |

Why would they waste time getting their policies out there two years before a GE? Surely they should concentrate on doing what's best for the country and on holding the government to account. |

Why should Labour get their policies out now just so the Tories either have something to attack or steal? I don’t believe the latest incarnation of the Tory government is going to be more competent or stable than any previous incarnation especially given that it is populated by the second rate and ideologues - if you think things are looking up then you need to get a grip as we are in for another two years of horrendous austerity thanks to the Tory buy now pay later policies |

"Yet there is the fixed term parliament act. You know it's a law.
The Fixed Term Parliament Act 2011 was repealed earlier this year by the Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act 2022.
Even when it was in force, the Fixed Term Parliament Act 2011 didn't stop an election being called early, as demonstrated by the election of 2015 being followed by another in 2017, and another in 2019."
For reference all it did was make it harder to call a snap election… you either had to have a vote of no confidence in the government… or you had to get 2/3rd of parliament to agree to have a general election …
But like we said… doesn’t exist anymore.. thank you for playing  |

Actually.
If the policies are good. I'm happy for the Tories to steal them. |

True, but.
1. They're going to stay in power anyway, doing all their other crap.
2. They're not going to steal any good ideas, if you define "good", as something that benefits the country instead of the corporations whose interests they serve. So it's academic. |
