According to a recent article I saw, there are a fair number of seats, many of them formerly Tory ones, which were safe Tory, but now are Labour ones, with Reform in second place. In total, Reform are in now in second place in around 80 Labour seats, with the Tories third or even lower.

      Well it looks like any further career for Priti with the Tories is all but finished now. One has to wonder how many of their remaining 120 MPs might decide to jump ship as well, to Reform? I can't see Sunak hanging around for much longer, I reckon when the new Tory leader is announced in early November, he'll leave Parliament, despite his protestations he'd stay as an MP. He had a fairly safe win in Richmond, he came nowhere near losing the seat. Watch the mad scramble if he announces he's standing down after the leadership election, this might be a good chance for one of the better known candidates who lost their seat in July to resurrect their political career.

      Begin? The Blue on Blue action hasn't stopped since Cameron resigned in 2016, 8 years ago, after the EU Referendum result. They couldn't make a Tory version of the TV series 'Traitors' for the obvious reason there's no one there who could play a 'Faithful', they're a bunch of backstabbers, to a one.

    Pritti Patels problems are twofold
    She is part of the hang 'em, Flog 'em & Brexit crew which plays well with member but not with ordinary voters
    & her campaign seemed to realise that there are not that many MPs that would support that agenda since it highlights their failing so she pivoted to set if values she has never espoused and that looked rather alien

    I suspect Patel wanted to lose this. She wanted the visibility of being a candidate, but didn't want to actually win
    Why would anyone with any memory of Tory party history want to be the new leader just after a defeat? It never ends well for the new leader

    • @paultaylor7082
      @paultaylor7082 Месяц назад

      You make a good point here. However, in recent years, only Starmer has beaten the odds, he is the only next newly elected Opposition leader to win a General Election. Major was PM already when he unexpectedly won in 1992, Blair only became leader after the death of John Smith in 1994, so wasn't actually Labour's leader after their defeat in 1992. Also you could argue Cameron was successful, although he was PM as part of a coalition, he didn't win an overall majority in 2010. The Tories went through Hague, IDS and Howard as leaders before picking Cameron, leaving them out of power for 13 years, 1997 - 2010.

    The Tories look like they're headed for a long stint in the political wilderness.
    They're so busy fighting among themselves that they've lost sight of why they're supposed to be in politics in the first place.
    It's a spectacle of political self-destruction that's both fascinating and amusing to watch.
    They're spending more time attacking each other than forming an effective opposition.
    Every day brings new leaks, backstabbing, and public spats. It's like watching a political version of "Game of Thrones," but with less competence and more pettiness.
    The leadership contest is shaping up to be a bloodbath. Candidates are more focused on tearing down their rivals than presenting coherent visions for the party's future.
    Meanwhile, the grassroots members are in open revolt, feeling betrayed by the party elite.
    The Tories are a complete mess right now. They're not just bickering - they're tearing themselves apart. The electoral defeat has exposed all the cracks that were papered over during their time in government, and now it's an all-out war.

      The danger of Priti Patel going down now, is that she can try again after the Tories lose the 2029 general election.
      Whoever wins this leadership contest, will have to step down as Tory leader after the Tories lose the 2029 election. Just like William Hague and Iain Duncan Smith had to in 2001 and 2005.
