Presuming BJ goes.

Definitely not Liz Truss.

Then I think, wasn’t PR how Farage got his seat in the European Parliament?

He wasn't exactly influential there, was he?

I don't mind the possibility of people like Farage getting into parliament. At least people who voted that way will feel that their voices have been heard and I doubt there would be many of them.

Well said LauraNorderr. There's more of us out there than some other Gransnetters like to believe.

?

You only think that because more people in the 65+ age group are likely to vote tory so you're more likely to know tory voters.

Tories are currently about 10 - 12 points below Labour in voting intention polls. So not that many of you out there...

I’m not in the over 65 age bracket. I’m mainly talking about our children, their friends etc. To be honest, our friends too.

I read the tweet and it made me laugh. It would seem that Boris was kept in check by his motherly ex wife but marrying a modern young woman has been his downfall. The poor lamb is all henpecked.

Definitely not Liz Truss.

Oh I don't know, I have a mental image of a debate between her and Sturgeon and it's not pretty for Truss

Andy Burnham for me too, should have won last time

Johnny Mercer?

Who ever you are talking about, it doesn't make you a majority of voters.

It wasn't even a majority of voters at the last General Election.

Rory Stuart if we have to have a Tory - but I think he has left politics. Kier Starmer won't set the Thames on fire - BUT he has integrity and intelligence, is committed to helping the most disadvantaged people in our society while sustaining the economy and the NHS - and if he is a bit dull - well give me 'dull' over corruption and self serving leaders who lie and don't seem to know what decent values mean.

Well said LauraNorderr!
Tony Blair mis-led us into a war so he was forced to resign.
David Cameron lead the Remain campaign so quire rightly resigned when the British electorate voted in favour of BREXIT.
Theresa May came to office with the task of implementing Brexit. She failed so clearly had to resign.
Boris came to came to office with the task of implementing Brexit. He achieved it. He has also successfully led the country through COVID. Economy is in excellent shape. Britain's standing in the world is strong. But our response is to demand his resignation because he shared a glass of wine at an end of week de-brief meeting. Shame on us if he goes!

And judging by the opinions given here there isn't no-one suitable that is available in any case.
I choose Boris Johnson!

Britain's standing in the world is strong.

We're through the looking glass now, aren't we?

Who would I like from any party?
No, no... I'm sure you must mean: who would I like from any work event?
???

I still think Keir Starmer is everything Boris Johson isn't - honest, caring, hard working, reliable, for me it would be either him or Andy Burnham. If we must have a Tory then I would have Tobias Ellwood or Theresa May, she wasn't the disaster some people try to make out she was.

Have you even read the question Holysox?

I like Johnny Mercer.

Can't remember his name and can't be bothered to google, but that army guy that resigned, He had principles. Other than him could anyone be worse than Boris ( well other than Rees-Mogg)? struggling even with the other parties, Starmer isn't the worst but really.......it's a very vanilla spectrum at the moment.

'army guys' not good idea.too narrow life experiences.detached from the mundane and lowly

Germanshephersmum.

I definitely want a Labour government.

Jusr look at the rabble surrounding Boris .

Boris is a liar and a cheat (remember that bus anyone?) I liked Theresa May but no Tory is going to suit me cos they all want to privatise the NHS thats why its so run down and private companies can use the NHS logo, maybe some people want to pay for their health care privately?

WHY do you lot insist in the myth that BJ achieved ANYTHING??!!? He personally did zilch! He has to be bullied into any type of safeguarding issues like lockdown and definitely was against distancing and masks, had to be bullied into making funds for vaccines developments freely available and to suspend funding protocols in order to speed things up. Has shown utter derision and contempt for everyone basically except himself and his own. Where IS your head dear?

I’d rather have that rabble than Angela ‘scum’ Rayner & co.

Janet Daley, who isn't even a politician, she's a Telegraph journalist whose columns are spot on, time after time.
Wishful thinking

Mummer

Do you actually know about Rory Stewart’s ‘ life experiences’?

As for Brexit? IT WAS ALL A BIG FAT LIE! BJ? Synonymous with BILLY LIAR??

I think not Maybe.

He's a brilliant historian and all doing good egg but PM? He's far too well brought up! Eton!? Non runner in the understanding the masses realms
