Or probably write 'Ken Clarke' or 'Bring back Dave (pbuh)'
(And to everyone else for their suggestions for Stuttgart)
Bye bye Gove.....
Things could turn very very nasty during the final two if Michael Gove and Sarah Vine decide to bite back.
And then there were 3...
FWIW - I think a snap GE will result in an even more well hung Parliament (get your minds out of the gutter.)
I would vote for Boris and he is more electable but Gove has the intellect to ensure Boris is really tested over the campaign and that is what we need
Problem is if he now switches votes to Hunt it'll look bad if his score falls. Though I guess he could say it's nothing to do with him.
Gove out this afternoon.
He’ll go up (nominally) about 20-25 from the Saj and will simply donate 10 or so to Hunt.
Scotish peers do it better ....
"Your party has gone bonkers; it thinks Brexit is more important than the Union."
Firstly, it's a really, really bad time to be making enemies into even worse enemies. Johnson is going to need all those MPs' votes (as Alistair says, the spoiled ballots are a big concern). This is also the final round - over 50% for Johnson is a nice figure to trumpet. So I'm not sure there will be sizeable tactical voting from the Johnson camp.
Secondly, as happened with Stewart and Javid dropping back when they dropped out, there is some sense of "well done, old chap, but your race is run and I'm moving on". Hunt is at risk of losing people who feel Gove has won out amongst those who remained loyal to May, so let's give him every chance with a decent final round.
'Boris does not bear grudges'
He’ll go up, but just not quite as much as expected and just enough for dirty tactics to be plausibly deniable.
I reckon he can horse around with a maximum of a dozen votes.
Are malcolmg and his fellow Nats lunatics too?
Or while 45% of Scots wanted to end the union is it news to you that some in England feel exactly the same?
So I'm absolutely delighted to see Philip come round to the idea that those of us in the cities and the wealthy bits should secede from Barnsley and Great Yarmouth and thereby stay in the EU, because I've been advocating that for a long while.
I have often thought that it would be fun, here on PB, to have a day when everyone argues the reverse of what they believe.
By definition, it ceases to become Brexit if the Union is lost.
BTW. Please don't call Berliners Teutonic Cousins.
