Politics is so fickle (faecal) that it's anyone's guess who will win a GE. The tories will pick the time that best suits them so we will see

I think it's a safe bet that the next election is closed in on at the earliest Autumn next year or Spring to Summer 2024.

They are sort of boxed in to that.

So much going on, the cost of living crisis to hit in October then possibly worse again to March and April bills next year.
Isn't going to reflect well for any election before the Autumn of 2023.
That's when the new proposed boundary changes will be in place.
Giving a probable 10 more seats to the Cons and taking 4 off Labour.

The public independent inquiry into the pandemic starts next year and the likely leakage from the early part of the pandemic will be far from good for the Cons.
Especially when the bereaved families get their say at said inquiry.

Plus Ukraine, what further drain will that conflict continue to take from the UK resources.
Both these candidates are bound to continue all help financial and otherwise needed there.

I've no doubt the Cons can pull any lead back BUT they now not only have to reverse an average 7/8 point lead Labour has had for ages now.
They have to get at least 4% ahead to just get the barest majority.

Even if both parties were more level in percentages.
That, with all the anti Con votes from the other parties in parliament would see the Cons out.

So there seems only 18 months at best before they'll need to be thinking of a general election.
With all the obstacles of uncertainty of cost of living, Ukraine and anything else unexpected arising.

With either Sunak or Truss as PM of which neither could even get the votes of only HALF of their own MPs in a series of ballots, never mind convince really fed up voters who wanted to see real change.
Only seeing a continuance of possible deceit and only jam tomorrow, sometime.

If Labour don't see these incompetents off, then Labour deserve to stay in the doldrums.
These 2 candidates are absolutely pathetic.

Again I hope Truss wins.
She's a Mrs May type campaigner and seems as delusional as Jo Swinson of the Lib Dems.

[Liz Truss U-turns on public sector pay plan
after backlash from Conservatives


The leadership hopeful rules out introducing
regional pay boards to set wages less than
24 hours after announcing her latest pitch
to party members.]

Tories fcuked us out of Europe, so might as well destroy the union whilst they still have the chance.

She's just spouting out any tripe without thinking or explaining anything.

She's like Mrs May and her badly planned so called dementia tax.
Honestly Truss is really deluded.

As to her comment on Nicola Sturgeon, what a gross insult to the voters of Scotland who elect Sturgeon.
For goodness sake Truss is supposed to be Foreign Secretary.

This really is the best the Cons can now present to the whole of the UK.
Farcical.

While that's true Slim.
This election was SUPPOSED to be about cleaning up and having a REAL fresh start.

It's starting to look more like a desperate race for more of the same.
Courtesy of Con members.

This isn't from a Party in opposition it's from the Party in government .
Who are looking as only being masters of gross incompetence and not even trying to cover it up now even as to its incompetence.
