Who will be the next leader of the Conservative Party and by default, the PM?

[Carana]

I guess she does not want him outside the tent pissing in.
It is a smooth move in my book.

Oddly enough, I was wondering if that was the case as well. Maybe he'll get stuck on a line again somewhere between the UK and China.

American reaction from the appointment of Boris Johnson, just on Sky News...................

'You have to be kidding'

From the German Foreign Secretary  'Boris Johnson is an irresponsible politician', again on Sky News.

Back in the days when good ol' Hills was Secretary of State.

Three possibilities:

- He won't
- He'll pretend to

Those Carana would appear to be the three most likely outcomes.

If confirmed, Jeremy Hunt remains as health secretary.


She couldn't possibly be making certain people put their money where their mouths once were... could she?

It will all work out....

I've just realised the connotations of an earlier comment of mine.
