Personally, I think the most interesting thing about the last couple of days is that Sunak, who visibly had to be dragged into saying the 'supermajority' stuff, was still doing the 'I can win' stuff on air this Sunday, is now saying it and has brought Boris back. CCHQ's data must be *BAAD*.
These are the right decisions in my view given where they are, but given that Sunak did not want to say the Labour landslide thing *on Sunday*: woof they must be looking at some alarming numbers. (Or maybe he has just been micromanaging so much he has only just seen them, TBF.)
I think they probably are right decisions but calling Johnson in for that last minute rallying of the troops doesn’t exactly bode well for their post Sunak landscape does it? The matricide of Margaret had a long shadow, this time it’s gonna be Big Dog Daddy Issues, discuss
How does the Braverman article work regarding her leadership ambitions? On the face of it seems pretty disloyal, & members don’t like disloyalty, but maybe it’s ok to be disloyal if you’re on the right side?
Well she is one of a few who can be reasonably confident she will get back and the party is in turmoil with no discipline at all so why not do that letter ?
and this is bald men fighting over a comb (I speak as a baldie !!) if Survation are anyway close and Mel Stride accepted that, then only a few left and just how many members left ??
Messaging seems weird - it's a swipe at the tolerance of racism in the party but bluntly her appeal (if any) is to the right who are always at least semi-racist.
I don't rule out her being sincerely angered by the response to the donation despite being personally hard-right.
