Oh, forgot to mention one of the Prime Minister's key aides being suspended for privately briefing against one of the PM's political rivals in a targeted attack. In fairness, that was nearly what, ten hours ago? Ancient history.

Weeks, right? 2019 GE: Dissolution of parliament 6th Nov at 00:01am (just to miss Nov 5th I think!), election was 12th December so that's 5 weeks then polling day. (Not sure how long the lead in to the dissolution was though).

Is there somewhere I can get a summary of what has been going on with Truss recently? There was a blurb in the trump lol thread about how things are bad with the Tories, and the general population as well. I was going to visit Stratford so I hope you folks are doing ok.

So even before Truss was put in her current position most MPs thought she wasn't PM material, but because of how the voting went she took the role anyway. She has been proving this was a correct assessment on turbo in the last few weeks and basically lost all real power but somehow nobody else has stepped up for real.

Christ, I didn’t remember the 2019 election being called that late. So there’s still plenty of time then. I’m not sure I can handle another winter election, although at least I won’t have to spend it canvassing for Labour this time…
