I think something for Christmas dinner, like a bag of Brussels sprouts, but I guess that would set off team BrexitBut which variety of veggies will outlast him?
But which variety of veggies will outlast him?
The thing with Sunak is that as much as everyone makes him out to be this Tory big dog, he's still a total political lightweight.I'd be happy to be wrong about this, but I think Sunak is probably here to stay. I don't see him making the kind of catastrophic unforced error Truss did, and the membership has been sidelined to wail and gnash their teeth. He might not be able to stop Labour winning the next election but two years is a long long time in politics.
I'm genuinely worried for the harm he'll bring about, knowing it will be calculating and targeted as opposed to Truss flailing around and Johnson not really caring about governance. Remember this is the guy who openly boasted about funnelling funds meant for deprived areas to his wealthy constituents.
You're not wrong, but I think Tory MPs and likely the Tory press at least will rally around him as they desperately try to salvage their electoral chances. I expect him to be given something of a soft ride unless he immediately fucks it like Truss did, and while I agree he's a lightweight, I also don't really think he's as monumentally stupid as Truss and will at least try to keep market forces happy as he kicks the poor in the teeth. He's a banker, he knows which side his bread is buttered.The thing with Sunak is that as much as everyone makes him out to be this Tory big dog, he's still a total political lightweight.
He was plucked from the backbenchers and made Chancellor because Javid resigned, and Johnson wanted someone compliant who wouldn't argue with him. After a couple of years, he fucked off and disappeared back to the backbenches.
The only notable thing about him apart from his stint as Chancellor is the fact that he's the richest MP.
Mods should probably update the title, as his name is actually "Rashid Sanook"
What the hell
So she quit for breaking the ministerial code by sharing immigration documents on her personal email. Now she’s back in at one of the most senior positions in the country.
Yes, clearly it’s the tofu-eating wokerati being some kind of conspiratorial alliance here /s
