Well now that depends on what you consider pro brexit? pro brexit is when a no deal is on the table and how many are opting for that?

TM was all for no deal she said it many times and where are we now?

Boris case thrown out of court by judges.

I’d say his way is open to win the leadership now ... anyone wavering over supporting him while this was pending will now be able to come out in favour.

She lied. Maybe she should be prosecuted. Oh wait a minute... :D

Re: Leadership who is the next PM?
 

Well someone has made a penny or two from it. Will the 'private individual' who brought the prosecution now have to repay any of the unused crowdfunding, sell his London flat, and stop paying himself his salary?

. . . or will he remain as a freeloading entrepreneur living off other people :D

Feel free to give it a go. ;)

There’s someone very like this in Scotland (actually not in Scotland at all, he lives in Bath, bizarrely, but he runs a bonkers independence website called Wings over Scotland), by the name of Stuart Campbell.

He sponges is funded by donations to his website from his readers, who are, shall we say, slightly to one side of the mainstream of Scottish independence campaigners. He recently tried to sue Kezia Dugdale, the former Scottish Labour leader, who opined in a newspaper column that he had made comments that were homophobic. He lost.

I don't understand why they're all such freaks. Why can't they act normal? They all have to have this really uncomfortable moments where they pretend to be what they perceive to be human. Matt Hancock swore and he wears jeans just like us normal people you see! Jeremy Hunt likes to run, Michael Gove likes a little bit of crack cocaine of an evening.

Re: Leadership who is the next PM?
 

Of the official launches so far:-

If anyone has a chance at this and surviving, i'd say Hunt.

Boris has too many enemies, who do all they can to sink him.

Hancock: Who?

Raab:- I like him but I do not think he is up to the task of true leadership.

Gove: After the revelations this weekend - his chances have sank. I don't like him and I think he looks kinda "Geeky".

Hunt seems to be the cat that seems to have more then nine lives.

Indeed he has a host of political enemies and is likely to turn as many off him as are likely to support him.

Yes indeed who? as he has certainly got no great appeal to hardly anyone.

He is seem as too much of a hardliner who will also find he has as many enemies as he has friends.

The skeletons in the cupboard all come out in the end and were not one of the newspapers about to reveal all?.

He is obviously related to Brutus as many find his untrustworthy and he is a political figure who will not hesitate in stabbing his opponents in the back if it furthers his own political career.

BREAKING: Conservative MP, Sam Gyimah, the only candidate backing a second referendum, withdraws from the leadership race citing a lack of support (the nomination deadline was 5pm).

Latest: The 1922 Committee says Michael Gove, Boris Johnson, Matt Hancock, Mark Harper, Jeremy Hunt, Sajid Javid, Andrea Leadsom, Esther McVey, Dominic Raab and Rory Stewart have received enough support to take part in the Conservative Party leadership contest.
