Current Affairs The Conservative Party

Spot on amigo. She was begging to be sacked so she can position herself as the poundland Thatcher in the Tory leadership race after the next GE .

With a bit or luck she either loses her seat at the election ( not inconceivable) or pours enough fuel on the Tory funeral pyre that it engulfs the lot of them and leads to its extinction

She’ll be all over GB News and the Mail now rallying against wokes and leftist lawyers. Appealing to the very worst parts of society.

I actually think he will make a run for the Tory leadership against Cruella post the next GE - this jungle crap is just to further try and appeal to the wider British public as his persona of the “sound fella who is a laugh down the boozer” schtick, so the split may happen.

Not sure. They are coming from pretty similar places and would split the far right vote among the party faithful.

He did say recently that he'd be quite comfortable in a Tory party led by Cruella, so I wouldn't be surprised if he rejoined, were she to gain control.

Good. Should not be allowed but nothing suprises me with this lot. Doubt anything will happen though

Would love to think you are right but Farage needs to win a seat first and can't see that happen at the GE.

If he did run Cruella won't run against him

He's done nothing in the past regarding ministerial accountability, it's all just ineffective blather.

Which is why I expect nothing to come of it. The amount of times he's had a go at them for breaking norms is ridiculous, but zero consequences and they just carry on.

Behold, Great British politics at its most ethical an incorruptible!

Her husband is probably a tory donor, nothing would surprise me more with the amount of grift with the Tory party.

I'd like to think Cameron's a reminder of better days but he's not really.

As Dennis Skinner coined " Dodgy Dave" about our former PM, in relation to his hidden away foreign monies.

Farage would have to be elected as an MP first; I can't see that happening any time soon.

Did he ever win an actual seat as an MP?
