    Liz Truss has been Prime Minister for over a month now and she’s not exactly had the most cracking start. So with the wider party in utter disarray - it seems like a pretty good time to look into who could replace Truss if the Conservative Party do decide to eject her from the top job.

      My guess is she will be shown the writing on the wall this weekend - and will resign early in the coming week. She can't wait too long, or the market will make her dimise more of a nightmare for everyone. If she doesn't resign voluntary, she will either have to keep making U-turns - cause there isn't a majority in Parliament for much of her policies - or she will soon find herself in the situation where King Charles has to intervene and tell her to call an election. The Tory party don't want that too happen. But the longer she is in number 10 pushing policies many Tory MPs doesn't support, the higher the risk of something like that to happen. Which is why I think she will be left no other choice but to resign voluntarily - and pushed to do so soon.

    American here 🇺🇸. I watched and listened on the morning Boris Johnson left #10 to meet the Queen at Balmoral. He was energetic and full of charisma, even as he was about to leave the job he truly loved so much. He’s a talented speaker who can hold his own. Many MP’s and supporters were there surrounding him.
    Then a few hours later I listened to what sounded like a dying bird caught in a fishing line when Liz Truss stood in front of the same lacquered door. Her first remarks were underwhelming, and didn’t instill any confidence. In fact it was sad.
    I just couldn’t understand why a confident leader like Boris Johnson had to be replaced with dying bird lady. Even the Queen was known to favor Boris - Zelensky as well! Then I heard about his “scandals.” Turns out during Covid restrictions Boris attended 2 social events. Seriously?? That’s it?? Our President Trump literally incited an insurrection & massive riot at the Capital!

    I can not believe we are seriously talking about Rishi and Boris again! The definition of madness! Jesus why don't they throw Cameron in whilst they're at it.

      Cameron was actually a decent Prime Minister compared to his three successors.

    I was honestly expecting her to at least last long enough to get kicked out of Downing Street in the next general election when Labor completely wipes the floor with the Tories.
    I guess the conservatives are just that bad at their jobs.
    That being said, it is immensely satisfying watching the brexit disaster picking off the idiots that were backing it one by one like a slasher movie villain does to teenagers.

      Didn't Brexit also pick off a bunch of opposition MPs who were against it? Like, the Lib Dems' leader lost her seat over it. Seems to me like it's less Brexit killing people as it is Brexit revealing which Politicians the British public can/cannot trust.

    The intelligence of PM's has been falling since 2010 and she's the final proof. Personally I think electing Fozzie Bear would not do any more damage than the candidates the Tories are offering!

      Honestly wondering if this could ever happen in Germany. The idea is just insane to me: to just allow elected party with the most votes to come up with another head of government, without including the votes of the citizen. I feel like if Scholz would fail, we’d end up with a re-election, rather than just picking the next representation for a party.

      @@nikaley I would assume if Scholz was kicked out, the nominated Vice chancellor would take over for the rest of the term. In the current case, Habeck would become acting chancellor until the next election.
      EDIT: Just looked it up. The President can nominate a temporary Head of government (usually the vice chancellor but not necessarily) until the Bundestag elects a new chancellor (I think it's important to note that the Bundestag votes on a new chancellor, not the ruling party)
