    Here’s a pic that can definitely be guessed, if you have the right zoological knowledge and you check the species and the terrain. Taken in 2013 or so, hence the poor quality (apols)


    Are those blue footed Booby's, hence the Galapagos?
    You’re all wrong, but quite close….
    Islas Ballestas?
    Sorry, posted too late.

    Well, I predicted Sunday 7pm. I was way off.

    Not sure why it takes so long. In one sense way it's a joke because nobody falls for it after the first couple of posts and as this is a tolerant site by and large so they stick out like a sore thumb. Perhaps Robert just allows everyone to have a bit of fun at their expense before the hammer falls.

    My family WhatsApp, which is quite rightwing (but with greens and lefties too) has gone from accepting the departure of Boris to OMFG look at these idiots (the potential replacements) and Can we have Boris back

    What astounds me is the appalling "quality" of the candidates. I know that Boris is accused of surrounding himself with low quality wannabes and has-beens but is this lot really all that is available?

    There is no way that any of this shower will lead the Tories to victory at the next election.
    You may be surprised
    I mean when weve bern treated to Labour leaderships featuring magic grandpa versus Owen Smith, that time they put Diane Abbott up, the Miliband family comedy troup and not forgetting Rebecca Long Bailey they cant be 'too' bad
    Labour's candidates were appalling too and for much the same reason. Corbyn surrounded himself with those who were no danger to him, just like Johnson. Anyone with talent was purged if they threatened The Leader.

    Corbyn and Johnson were opposite cheeks of the same ar*e and the pair of them have polluted the politics of this country.
    You're wrong about Corbyn's 'purges'.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_Cabinet_of_Jeremy_Corbyn
    Really? He did not surround himself with Corbynites? The bulk of his own party tried to get rid of him. In that, at least, they did better than the "Conservative" Party
    Yes, but in the end. Look at his first shadow cabinet Thornberry, Eagle, Watson, Ashworth, De Piero. He did at least try.
    Thornberry has had quite the idealigical journey. She was a Brownite, a Millibandite, a Corbynite and now a Starmerite.
    Any port in a storm Thornberry.
    But not Rochester...

    Well done to @foxy and @carnyx for identifying birds like the booby in my rubbish photo

    PB is replete with expertise

    And expert with repletes?
    It's more explete with repartee if tonight's anything to go by.

    Steve Baker has dropped out and is supporting Suella Braverman. Looks like the ERG are going to vote en bloc.

    Jesus Steve, what you playing at?!
    Seems odd, but who knows what jostling and hustling is taking place back-stage.

    Suella surely can’t win (or can she!) so presumably this is possibly about creating a bloc that can veto Tudgendhat or maybe even Rishi.
    Is any bloc needed to veto tugonthat? I thought continuity remoan within the PCP had gone the way of Change UK.
