    Priti Patel out of the running to be Tory leader. Dodgy Bob the winner in the first round.

    I do mildly wonder which stinky as shit corrupt chancer the project is going to wheel in front of us next, in an attempt to destabilise and milk us dry.

    Honest bob sounds likely. Should actually be in jail.

    I imagine that the Conservative party members and their representatives have had enough of non white, non male leaders. Sunak and Truss clearly demonstrated that the recipe for success is privately educated white men with money, so I don't see any way they don't go back to their safe place.

    It would be funny if they chose Badenoch though, who somehow manages to make her almost namesake look like Good Enoch.

    I cashed out my bet on Dodgy Bob after the election (placed it when he resigned from the government) but I think it's a safe bet when they come down to the final two that White Man beats White Woman beats anyone Not White (I'd expect Not White Man beats Not White Woman but not so sure there).

    To get a real bead on it, we need to know who Vlad is telling Russ's dad to vote for through the socials.

    My dad doesn't do socials, but whoever Vlad chooses I can guarantee that the old man will find a way of justifying voting for them.

    I wonder what he came up with for Truss? Knowing your old man I can't imagine it would be "looks a bit like Thatcher, if you squint while wanking over memories of the destruction of society", but it's, ahem, hard to come up with much else.

    I suspect he was spared that as he didn't actually have to vote for Truss at any point.

    I don't think he's a party member, just a committed voter.

    Isn't the received wisdom that if Badenoch gets into the final two she'll win as the members love her?

    Jenrick vs Badenoch then.

    Slightly regret cashing out on dodgy Bob at 4/1.

    Ironically, will be a challenge to my prejudices (about tory members' prejudices) if Badenoch wins, and she's currently favourite.

    She must be a proper dilemma for the elderly Tories

    They can be colour blind when faced with someone prepared to be really vicious to other members of society that they like to feel superior to....plus they really like a certifiable nutter.
