    Hate Badenoch the most because she's transphobic and kind of racist because she wants to tell a revisionist history because she doesn't believe in the teaching of critical race Theory.

    Tbh they will all be destructive to the country however sunak seems to be a little more realistic about the economy.

    If Mr Rishi becomes Prime Minister of the UK , maybe next year the party will break up again because Rishi has many negative aspects. I think it would be good for the British people and the new generation if the foreign Secretary Ms Liz Truss becomes UK Prime Minister. Mr Rishi and his wife does tax invasion.
    Petrol price is as high as £1.95 per litre and food prices are increasing. What did Mr Rishi do when he was finance minister? Using the Russia v Ukraine war and covid-19 as excuses? Please do something for the British middle class and poor people. Most British Prime Ministers lived in luxury when they were in power. They do nothing for the poor, a real shame for all British people.🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

    The way these people speak and act is incredibly weak, none of these people are leadership material. The UK officially now has a crisis of leadership on its hands.

    It doesn't matter who will be the next prime minister.
    They are all front men of the ERG.
    It's like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It is insane to me that even in a "liberal country" like the UK trans rights are under attack. Like it's literally biology , if trans people pretend to be cisgender they all get extremely depressed anxious and suicidal, and that is science. How is there still so much hate left? Even in a country that listens to scientists for pandemics? Even for people who have no problem with gay people for reasons that also apply to trans people? Truly disheartening, and it is disgusting that the rights of transgender people pretty much come down to how some privileged cishet people like the economy.

    God help us!! You can put icing on a turd, but it remains a turd…..what a choice?? How about asking the people who they want as PM? Lol.

    The best pick would be Larry.

    Jesus dude enough of ur interview bs. Just TELL us the news

  19. @TheDrexxus

    January 8, 2024 at 9:55 pm

    The way they do this is hilarious to me because a single transferable vote system would do this entire thing automatically, start to finish, in just one voting session. But I suppose if they used it and revealed to the country how well that sort of system works, people might want it for voting for the PMs which would make it harder for the big parties to stay in power forever like they do now, so obviously they can't do that.

    Or perhaps they do it in stages rather than single transferable vote because they don't actually vote honestly and use each round as an opportunity to further politic and curry and expend favors because they care more about their political capital than having a competent leader.

    Regardless of which one is actually the case, it's hard not to be disgusted with these people to be honest.

    If Rishi Sunack gets in it’ll be the most ridiculous farce ever, he seems a really nice gentleman but he’s a millionaire & his wife & her family are millionaires a few times over how can he possibly know or be in touch with the public? Let alone the benefit system & people on benefits, it’s like trying to mix oil & water doesn’t work.

    I love everything about the chiropractic retreat joke. So unenthusiastic but so good

  22. @originaluddite

    January 8, 2024 at 9:55 pm

    What is this? The US primaries? What has a TV debate to do with a choice that has to be made by MPs alone? And all those voting rounds! How about getting it done with a preferential vote? Thankfully civil servants can run things while this circus runs its course.

  23. @teongreen5254

    January 8, 2024 at 9:55 pm

    People are still supporting brexit? I thought they become normal. Apparently not yet.

  24. @stevencrighton6890

    The two worst candidates for the tories are truss and sunak…whoops 🤣
