cyrusr Posted July 5, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted July 5, 2022 Money on who's the next resignation? Gove might be likely - more interested in saving his own skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd have to win that election otherwise the Tory Party would be damaged beyond repair. In fact just calling it might just do that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 No sympathy at all for those who backed him over and over. They even had the VONC and still chose to keep him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 He will see if as calling an election will keep him in power longer than he would without, I think. He will - and I hope this - try and bring them all down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
