BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 3.02pm post the following, " Rishi Sunak - 101 votes,Penny Mordaunt - 83 votes,Liz Truss - 64 votes,Kemi Badenoch - 49 votes,Tom Tugendhat - 32 votes, "
Lets Get Real:
Thus far the Foreign Secretary, Liz Truss is under preforming, thus the blog could be WRONG, it might be Sunak AND Mordaunt, this reason this blog does not think that it would happen this way is the FACT that the right of the party has split its vote. The present Attorney General is out, and one can presume ( always very dangerous when discussing Conservative Leadership contest, ) that the supporters of Suella Braverman will go for Liz Truss, what Kemi is still doing in the race is a mystery, let's be honest Kemi might be famous in her own house but in till last week no one knew who the hell she was. The Monday round will be interesting, it can be postulated that either Kemi or Tom are on the way out, one would assume Tom, thus his votes might go to Sunak or to PM. When Kemi is finally out, one would guess her supporters would go to Truss. Thus the original prediction of this blog might stand, its gets difficult when you cannot tell the wood from the trees, there is a debate tomorrow on the TV, that might change things again, it is going to be a long summer, if it is Sunak and PM ( good initials for a future PM ) are the final two, it has been suggested by various polls of Conservative members will go for PM. PM is a ONE NATION CONSERVATIVE AND a Conviction BREXIT SUPPORTER, this might go down well with the Party, Sunak is seen as having stabbed PM Boris in the back. A lot can happen over the Summer.
