Who remembers the Michael Portillo moment?

Angela Rayner before she gets her ‘Boss’ kicked out so that she can be Prime Minister.
Also David Lammy & most of the Tory party.

Rees Mogg and Gove.
I was listening to Galloway yesterday and quite liked him. He has guts and tells it like he sees it, which made a lot of sense to me, at least the bit I heard. Often we demonise people, there's that love-to-hate inclination that takes us over. If possible, I think it's better to listen carefully, and apply that maxim from the Bible - 'by their fruits shall ye know them'!

Gove isn’t standing anyway.

Angela Rayner is about the only one I hope wins her seat.

All of them

I just heard her speaking about her employment plans - worrying to any employer but just what the unions want to hear. However I stopped listening when she said she had ‘spoke to’ someone. That would sound good on the world stage wouldn’t it? EU and other foreign politicians speak excellent English but our would-be deputy PM, born and brought up here, certainly doesn’t.

Angela Rayner.

Why Angela Rayner. She’s wonderful.

The Portillo moment was really about the look on his face.
Tory entitlement being broken was priceless.

Jacob Rees Mogg

I once, not by my design, sat opposite Michael Portillo at a formal dinner. He said not one single word to me, just had an animated conversation with the person on his left. I had been a bit sorry for him when he lost his seat, but not after that. There was another bigwig on my right who did chat a little; I was much better disposed towards him!

Most of the cabinet and our local MP.

Angela Rayner
Dianne Abbott
George Galloway

Rees-Mogg, Priti Patel, Braverman, Farage, Truss, DRoss, Badenoch, Galloway. That lot would do for a start.

We stayed up for the Portillo moment. Like some others on here, I do like his train experiences.

DeeDa wasn’t it Matthew Paris who tried to live on benefits for a week.

He did too. Several of them have.

I’d never dream of drinking fizz to celebrate an MP losing his/her seat.
Perhaps I’m just not that invested.
It seems like a strange over reaction to me.
Our current MP, Flick Drummond (no longer a candidate in our constituency due to boundary changes) will probably lose her seat to the LibDem candidate in her new constituency. I think that’s well deserved because she was not a good MP, but I won’t be cracking open any bottles of fizz.

We were all political animals and still are. Hence the celebrations.

I do. A group of us met up and watched tv until his vote was announced. We all cheered to the roof tops, drunk lots of fizz and felt very elated.

I'm hoping for such a moment with T Coffey, plus Patel and Braverman. Who would you like to see go?

Kemi Badenoch.

Thanks for that. I couldn't remember her name last night nor could my DH. Both having a senior moment.

Michael Gove isn’t standing.

Thanks GSM, I hadn't realised

George Galloway

Suella Braverman

Above all Farage loses.

Yes, I would love to see that Marg!
