BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 9.27pm post the following after Boris Johnson withdrawal from the Conservative Leadership contest, " This makes Sunak the firm favourite.....This all makes Rishi Sunak the firm favourite. But Penny Mordaunt will be trying over the next few hours to win over Mr Johnson’s backers and show she has a significant chunk of Tory MPs behind her. "
Lets Get Real:
It can be argued that former PM Boris is well out of it, the outlook for the economy is not good, the new PM will deal with a hike in taxes and cuts to public spending. Boris will not be tainted by the new Government, also he has the Privileges Committee to deal with, with Boris as not PM, one can expect less coverage, if he had been elected PM the news would have been all about that, thus PM Sunak, that will be have a clear field, but let's not forget that he backstabbed Boris a few months ago, and started the road to his resignation, also the non dom status of his wife, you can be your bottom dollar that the left wing press and TV will go through that again, it's not everyday that PM is on the Sunday Times rich list. Also like Boris he was fined over Partygate. HE BROKE THE LAW! The press will bring that up again, the Guardian, BBC News, Channel 4 News and even some of the right wing papers, who will be very wary of Sunak, will he be firm on Northern Ireland Protocol, he will defend BREXIT, he is after all a BREXIT support but that was years ago, he will be judged by his action over the next two years. It can be postulated that the Conservatives will lose in Jan 2025, the last date a election can be called, and they will be sent in to Opposition, that is the time for Boris to become the leader again, the Conservatives will be looking for a WINNER, they have turned their back on a great leader, they will pay the political price, they have lost one vote in this blog.
