    Come on, we all knew how bad she was, she couldn't do interviews of any kind, let alone robust ones! It was obvious, and it was obvious the tory party knew as well. Just look at the way they coordinated all the 6 weeks of the televised leadership talks. Audience filled with clapping seals, no hard questions from the host. The tory party did this. Remember that in a weeks time.

The issues were there to see. Indeed, Sunak (of whom I am no supporter) laid them bare. Marr, Neil and the media failed to report them.

      Having the monarch step in does set a very dangerous precedent (especially when everyone's always been worried about Charles doing that). I think the best way to get a GE would be for the public to protest, and for the strikes to step up a notch to force the Tory MPs to call for one. Maybe the King could give a televised address where he hinted that an election was needed, that might be enough to sway some of the more stubborn traditionalists in the conservatives.

    That there are Conservative who would seriously think of bringing back Boris, after all that has happened, is sheer lunacy and set to cause more problems.

Particularly in a climate when equity is seen as more important than competence and she was clearly incompetent and out of her depth.

    I wish commentators would stop saying 'we' did this or that when it is 'them', in this case a minority of Tory Party members and MPs, who 'did' it. My vote has only counted in one election nationally or locally since I started voting after 1974. So a lot of us feel totally excluded from politics; but not its effects, unfortunately. we cannot evade what 'they' keep on doing to us. If I had had my way, North Sea Oil revenues would have been reinvested in the country, not frittered away in tax handouts and the like. A lot of property-price inflation must be a consequence of this, for instance. And I would have made sure that house prices stayed at an affordable level by replacing sold-off social housing with new build social housing. Rent rises should have been linked to CPI or RPI ages ago, and there should never have been mortgage relief for private renters. There is very little in the way of Tory or Labour policy that I have agreed with and I have had no way of punishing either party for its myopia and general short-sightedness or help put things on the right lines. Joining a party would just mean conforming or being side-lined.
