BBC and CH4 have been showing of their legendary impartiality again: BBC News presenter taken off air for "glee" after Boris pulled out of leadership race. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SouZWFDDsQ8CH4 presenter taken off air for calling a Tory MP a "c**t". www.youtube.com/shorts/zMG-7Ehda-oThe UK has it's first Prime Minister of colour and not a word of it on the BBC homepage lol... despite phone in after phone on radio talkshows from people with Indian heritage saying proud they are, and how much it means to them. |

The Tory members who were denied a vote are furious. I can understand that. They wanted an English prime minister and to her credit Truss was good, and to be frank with you, she was much better than I expected. In the short time she was PM she already got an agreement with Macron and met with the Irish and Denmark leaders who all gave her a warm thumbs up, plus she reversed the fracking ban to deal with the energy crisis. I thought she had some talent there to chat our European friends up in the right way so we can normalise European - UK relations which Johnson did his best to destroy. The members would not like to be asked twice if they want Rishi. You know how votes on the same question asked again often produce a more negative result. |

If Tory members were given a vote, there is every chance Sunak would not have got the job, not because he isnt the no 1 choice, and able, but because hes coloured.

It would probably have been a consideration for some as a negative vote however to make him the first Asian descent PM may have been a factor in some positive votes for him. Which is may be why he obtained the result he did from MPs who as we know are much more visually diverse orientated than the membership or the electorate. It would be nice if one day it really did not matter but that day is a long way off. |

Probably the backstabbing of Boris has something to do with it. Or, maybe you are just looking to flame the forum. Anyway, I reckon the BBC have their own agenda. It's in a war with the government over licence fees and funding so they might not be that supportive of the Nadine Dorries of this world. As for CH4 they are a lost cause. |

The Tory members who were denied a vote are furious. A bloody good job they were denied a vote considering the kind of choices they make. A bunch of affluent elderly blue rinsers and colonel blimps hopelessly out of touch with the broad masses. |

Tory party members, or the electorate, would never have voted for Sunak because behind the scenes he orchestrated Boris's downfall. Remember Boris fighting for his premiership in the HoC, as his chancellor Sunak was photographed 200 miles away in Devon. Who needs enemies when you have fiends like that. |

We have enough North Sea oil and gas not to need to. We have enough coal to not need to. There are enough lefties who would go back down pits for a bit and mine the stuff before going on strike too. |

There are enough lefties who would go back down pits for a bit and mine the stuff before going on strike too. We have plenty of coal, but we can't use it for obvious reasons!! However, we are down to a couple of years worth of gas and oil. If we didn't import, we would only have 2 years left!! Even Norway is starting to wind down their extraction because the stuff that is left simply isn't financially worth extracting. In case you haven't noticed we are poisoning the planet, so gas is going to worthless very soon, with oil not long behind it once they develop manufacturing substitutes, |
