Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss will go head-to-head to become the next leader of the Conservative Party after Penny Mordaunt became the latest candidate to be knocked out of the contest.
In the fifth and final round of voting by Tory MPs, the leadership contenders received the following support:
Penny Mordaunt - 105
Rishi Sunak - 137
Liz Truss - 113

The best candidate (Kemi Badenoch) is out, which is too bad. At least tranny-loving Penny Mourdant didn't make it to the final two.

Truss and Sunak are too similar for my tastes, but if push comes to shove, I'd go with Sunak.

Why should someone like or dislike either one?

No one would want to see the Iron Lady in her leggings but she was every bit if not important to the UK as Reagan was to the US.

She was a cold warrior and she did what Reagan did to the air traffic controllers x 20.

Outside of Churchill from 1940 to 1945, aside from a possible case for David Lloyd George, her unsurpassed 12 year period as PM from 79 to 91 was a life saver for the UK. Her weakness was being too reticent to take on the EU but had she loved to see it she would have taken the UK out before boris Johnson left his party while mayor of London.

Charles DeGaulle, Kohl, Franco are her only post wwii European peers in terms of influence.

Too bad we'll get pansy now

Nigel: Truss is the least worst candidate

Truss is anti-taxes. Sunak favors massive tax increases.

Thanks for the Farage clip. I stand corrected re: Truss v Sunak.
Badenoch still was the best option.

Thank. I've been so worried about other things I haven't had a chance to follow British politics recently. I grew up watching prime Minister's questions each Sunday night on Cspan. I have watched each general election since 1991 or whenever major's first was plus the euro referendum live.

It's good to know Nigel has a least worst.

Farage almost singlehandedly grew the movement to get the UK out of the EU. And he did so with elegant speech and brute force.

Farage was what I had hoped Trump could have been.

He's one of the good guys and I guess I'll pull for Truss. Labour isn't Tony Blair's neocon Bill Clinton party. It's to the left of most mainstream euro center left parties now. Somehow the conservatives have to hold on

Not really, the U.S. political scene is full of Marxist Indians, stick to being a nurse.
