Subject: RE: BS: Brexit & other UK political topics
I’m pretty sure The Lying Toad’s days are numbered. Reading (and listening) between the lines, I’m thinking rumblings of dissent are growing in the ranks of the Tory Party, and he’ll be out on his big fat arse in the not-too-distant.

And I have a strong suspicion that his replacement won’t be any of The Usual Suspects - Gove, Sunak, Patel, Rees-Mogg, Truss - but will be a relative ‘outsider’. I keep seeing Hunt’s name mentioned as one of the quietly-lurking threats to any of those becoming Johnson’s replacement and, if he becomes PM, I can foresee that The Usual Suspects will be toast as far as Cabinet membership goes. Pretty sure that Hunt would be looking to re-establish good relations with the EU, to become ‘The Man Who Saved Brexit’, so Brexiteers would be likely to get short shrift if and when he sets up his Cabinet.

I could be way, way off the mark, but I live in hopes…
