And then what? IDS’s job here is to help BoJo win a vote of party members. He’s well placed to do that because he won a vote of party members. Pretty simple, really.

You can get 4/1 on Hunt, looking like tempting odds...

. Surely it’s all over for Boris Johnson. He has committed by far his greatest blunder so far, at least in this leadership contest. He has appointed Iain Duncan Smith as his campaign manager.

That’s right. IDS. The man who was so incompetent a leader that his party got rid of him back in 2003. The man who helped (with George Osborne) make such a mess of universal credit. The man who resigned from the Cabinet on the very issue of welfare reform, just when it was past time for his departure to make any difference.
He also quit, in 2016, just before all his Eurosceptic Christmases came at once and Leave won the EU referendum. (He's been out of the cabinet ever since). The “Quiet Man” with the permanent frog in his throat. The one cartooned as Dracula sucking the blood from benefit claimants. The one who was attacked for employing his wife Betsy as his assistant on the taxpayer. The one who couldn't lay a glove on Tony Blair. The one who made Michael Howard look like a vote magnet.

Bickering children, eh? See the Brexit thread for details!

Must I? What I really like to express about that is grounds for banishment.;)

So again I'm past caring.

Yet how would Hunt get us out of the EU and the Backstop?

If I'm a Conservative weathervane, Boris will lose.
Who cares about his private life, Seph? That is just an entertaining distraction.

At least he's not a tiresome moralising politically correct robot. That would really be depressing.

Until Sunday, that's how I saw Boris - unconventional, purposeful and a buffoon to boot. He would be fun. not grey and miserable.


But integrity matters and he has tipped over to the untrustworthy side.

Not much going on really for him then, just a long list of him failing and losing really, sounds like the perfect guy to revitalise bozos campaign

Yeah because there's nothing tiresome about demanding your private life be kept private and then releasing private photos publicly, just another self serving, grubby politician who thinks so little of the public that we'd fall for his little games, that's depressing

If only, OB. The infamous photo and his blathering under questioning leaves me with a sour taste.

He'll be 1,000,000/1 next week

Still can't see him winning. If it was a vote of the general population then maybe but no way does Hunt ever win amongst the members.
