Sadly I expect that too.

It reveals a lot about the narrow Conservative voting that the candidate who it was claimed in polling done, easily topped the first debate and was also 2nd in the next debate.
Will likely be out.

While the waste of space Truss, who was LAST in the first debate and 2nd bottom in the next has strong support.

They are AGAIN charging in to elect the WRONG choice again.

Then again however Labour has that same problem too.

All it means though as a result is the UK is left with the worst of political leaders.
For the main 3 UK wide party leaders I doubt the UK has been so badly served by them as it is now.

I've always liked the saying.
Truth is stranger than fiction.

Apparently the Sky debate is off.
Sunak and Truss not keen on doing it, so the news has just said.

they obviously think it's doing their chances harm. Only penny and tim would do the bbc question and answers yesterday, the others all refused

Nigel on point...


A couple of days after Boris Johnson resigned, I was told by a wealthy Tory
donor that the big business backers had decided they wanted Liz Truss to win.
Why? Because she's the one they think would be easiest to manipulate. I was
slightly shocked to hear this – which probably does explain, of course, why I'm
not a billionaire.

Given that we have a Stop Rishi campaign, it seems clear to me that Truss
will make it through to the last two and will subsequently win with the
membership. Just think of it. A Remain-voting, former card-carrying and
conference-speaking member of Liberal Democrats, who once endorsed
Republicanism, a woman who voted for May's disastrous deal three times,
will likely lead the Conservative Party and post-Brexit Britain. You simply
couldn't make it up. It is possible that she now believes in dealing with the
Northern Ireland protocol and genuine conservatism, but I doubt it. All I see
here is a careerist. How did it come to this?

Her public performances are weak to the point of being laughable (just look
at her reading out her closing statement last night) and she will not connect
with working-class Britain. I think that the Conservative Party is in much
bigger trouble than it understands. If only Boris Johnson had told the truth
and fulfilled his manifesto pledges. Alas he did not, and the final insult to us
all is 6 more weeks of this protracted and uninspiring leadership campaign.

the tories are out at the next election. It's pretty incredible that they stood a better chance of winning when led by a serial liar :laugh:

Sky News has cancelled its Conservative leadership debate after Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss pulled out from the event.

The debate was due to be hosted by Kay Burley tomorrow evening.

Conservative MPs are said to be concerned about the damage the debates are doing to the image of the party, exposing disagreements and splits.

Head of Sky News, John Ryley, said: "Sky News has campaigned for an independent commission to organise the running of TV debates between leaders of Britain's main parties.

They haven't got anything new to say, have they? And what they have said already is forgettable.
