Put your money on Gideon replacing Dave...he has all but silenced Boris and unless he drops a major gaff in the next four years he should have cemented his place for the top job.

Cant bet on any Tory to win anything, got 100 quid on Andy Burnham though..

Fat chance put your money on the dark stalking horse..http://www.austria-forum.info/images...s/huldigen.gif

Zac Goldsmith, that's a leaders name for a start. :yep:

This contest is going off the rails...

Yes I did read somewhere that a lot of Tories are joining just so they can vote for Corbyn :hmm2:

You can't split that which has already been torn asunder.

From what I have been reading most of the new intake don't think much to him so I don't see Boris getting elected PM.

I think Boris has been outmaneuvered. I'd say next Tory leader will either be Osborne or May, with the former being more likely as he's Chancellor.:hmmm:

In the meantime I see that the Eckster's opened his mouth again on the Marr show:

It does seem that the SNP are convinced that the Referendum was won by underhanded tactics. They are definitely wanting a re-run, and soon.:hmmm:

I also see that David Mundell committed a major tactical blunder by attending the opening of a food bank in Dumfries a few days back:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotlan...tland-33644000

He got the "Farage" treatment for his troubles. I think the Scottish edition of the Daily Mail on Saturday had a point about political debate in Scotland descending into acrimony and division. I'm beginning to think that the SNP are so determined to get what they want they don't care if Scotland turns into a re-run of Northern Ireland!:/\\!!

And to cap it all off, some sleaze from the upper House, Baron Sewel (of Gilcomstoun in Aberdeen) quits as Lords deputy speaker after a "Sun" sting:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-33667676

As he's an ex-Aberdeen Councillor, I can't say I'm surprised he's turned out to be "morally dubious". Aberdeen Council's as corrupt and incompetent as they come, regardless of political persuasion!

Bleh!

Mike.

New political slang - the "Full House":

Slandering members of the Government - check.
Sexist comments - check.
Racist comments - check.
Taking drugs - check.
Consorting with prostitutes - check.

Bravo, Lord Sewel.

Boris strikes again;

Well his biography of Churchill did become a best-seller.

It's all just sex and drugs on television these days.

Mind you, I only watch the Parliamentary channel.

I see our so called recovery is based on the banks, fast food and spending. I believe we have been down this road before which resulted in recession so here we go again the boom before the bust.

Jeremy Corbyn gets more backing.

Calais migrant crisis: PM pledges extra fencing and dogs

I feel so much safer now, I can sleep safely in my bed knowing those fences will keep those illegal migrants out of the UK. :03:

Jeremy Corbyn is looking good from where he sits..

Constituency party nominations -
Jeremy Corbyn 152
Andy Burnham 111
Yvette Cooper 106
Liz Kendall 18

From what I understand this dose not mean much but could be pointing the way to whom will take over.

I see Mr Big our PM is very busy saying he will look into shutting down porn sites, put a stop to corruption in the housing market, more fences to keep those illegal immigrants at bay and tackle child abuse corruption in Westminster.

Has he got time to take a leak? :03:

How much of the above will be put on the back burner or dropped and of course job done thanks to that sticky plaster.

Is anyone falling for this guff?

Defiantly something to worry about :hmm2:

The forerunner to the big split.

We may see another sort of scandal and this time it could be the House of Lords. Listening to the radio last night a number of peers have turned up to the Lords and never spoken in any of the issues/debates call them what you want. They were paid thousands of pounds and none of them need the money as all of them are stinking rich!
