The 3rd Round of the Conservative Leadership Contest - After Brexit / Boris

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 8.05pm post the following, " Rishi Sunak - 115, Penny Mordaunt - 82, Liz Truss - 71, Kemi Badenoch - 58, Tom Tugendhat - 31  "

Lets Get Real:

As expected Tom went out today, he might be a future heavy weight in the Party even PM, he has to try and not to mention his WAR RECORD every time, this blog honours he service in Iraq and Afghanistan but Tom should try to stop himself bringing up the subject every time over every issue, it become a bit of bore.  Tomorrow this blog predicts that Kemi will be out, one can assume that Tom's votes will go to Penny, as Penny is seen as more of ONE NATION Conservative and is very woke!.  The question for the final round will be is simple, will it be Penny or Liz that face Sunak in the membership vote, it should be noted that Sunak does less well with this membership.  It was wise for the Conservatives to cancel tomorrows debate, the candidates were given ammo to the Labour Party.  This blog is still keeping to its prediction that the final race will be between Rishi and Liz, that of course depends if the Kemi voters go for Liz, one can never be sure with the Conservative MPs. 

PM on Brexit - After Brexit / Boris

The Sun: Reports " PENNY'S PROMISE 

I’ll get Brexit re-done and put more pounds in people’s pockets if made Prime Minister, vows Penny Mordaunt "

Lets Get Real:

The article says ALL the right things when it comes to Brexit, but the sister paper of the Sun, the Sunday Times that has a complete view from sources, that PM will not follow through with the Northern Ireland Protocol Bill and will try to appease the EU.  There is no appeasing the EU, they will just play it out, in till they think that Labour will win the next election.  Either PM is being economic with the truth when it comes to Brexit or the sources in the Sunday Times are feeding the Sunday Times what it wants to HEAR.  On does hope that the debate tonight the issue is bought up, one is tired of the Trans issues, and taxes, there are other things to discuss.  The above article would convince one that PM is a conviction Brexit supporter, but with politicians its what they do not say that counts, or this blog could be paranoid about the political class. 

2nd Round of the Conservative Leadership Contest - After Brexit/Boris

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. 

Those in the First Round Tomorrow for the Conservative Leadership - After Brexit / Boris

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 4.30pm post the following, " At least five Tories now expected on ballot, as Hunt joins Sunak, Truss, Mordaunt and Tugendhat in reaching 20 threshold  "

Lets Get Real:

The process is going the way this blog predicted, it will be Sunk and Truss in the final around.  Those on the right of the Party will have to place their support in Truss, the Foreign Secretary was a REAMINER in 2016, but has been converted to a firm BREXIT supporter, while Sunak has been accused for not supporting the opportunities of Brexit in Cabinet.  The NEXT PM has to be a firm Brexit supporter otherwise the membership will not support a iffy PM.  One hopes the Conservative MPs get that FACT, that they need the membership to knock on doors during elections, they need the NEXT PM to be the same page as the members up to a point.
