- “There have been people who were thinking about it for a while and now they only have a few more months it’s pushed them over the edge.”
Conservative MP’s “have been pushed over the edge” by Rishi Sunak’s decision to call a July election, says former chief Downing Street press officer Mo Hussein.

Rats deserting a sinking ship. 😂😂😂
You beat to it!
I agree. Just waiting for the rest.
Me to it!
Ironic, given the odeus dwarfs trip to Titanic! 😂
@@angiehaddington6462What on earth does that mean?
Uk
Getting paid for a jolly jaunt whilst devastating our jobs, savings, health and whole lives. Disgusting.
They are worse than rats. They came in for the party, burned everything to the ground, and now they're off before they can be held to account. Despicable.
They will get away with the manslaughter shitshow that was covid. My father died during that and I will never forgive them.
hang on a minute - labour are just as bad - go look at starmers donor - hmmm its the same people - rockerfellas
My thoughts exactly my friend. 👏
Thing is now they’re starting to look like rats
Can you remember when they came into power,and Mr brown of the labour party left another saying no money left!!!! All as bad!!
A farcical end to a farcical government.
Just go!
I'd say Sunak's had enough and doesn't care about what happens once he's gone.
He didn’t care when he was in 😂
decent returns on the modeRNA shares will keep him & his family in ice creams on the Californian beach
He's pining for California.
Seemingly he never did!
We have an extradition agreement with California
Gove will not be missed. Never has a man held such a ahigh opinion of himself without justification.
'high' being the appropriate term...
Except Grant Schapps…
“Hold my beer” say Liz Truss & Boris Johnson
Gove is the main reason they are in this mess
Actually Gove is known for being a very effective manager and thinking deeply.
Enough money made, time to move on
The rats are fleeing the ship 😂😂😂😂
Rats, deckchairs, sinking ship, orchestra playing ' Things can only get better '... Couldn't have been scripted better !
Britains poor have nothing left for the Cons to take
We are in for a rough time in this country but watching the big names jump ship is truly delicious...
After 14 years of austerity we are used to it.
@@alimantado373
Austerity.
The same idiot threw the piggy bank against the wall so all the wet liberals could hide in their houses during the plandemic and still get paid.
So many sat at home getting paid.
Austerity. Give me a break.
I'm looking forward to 4th/5th July... As the results come in.... Let's have a guess how many ' Portillo ' moments there will be ?.... Lots , I think...!
@@richardruff8712There could well be no Portillo moments, apart possibly for Sunak himself, because anybody of that stature in the Tory party stands down in the next few days and so won't be contesting the election.
@@davidwebb4451 Possibly, but I have a feeling that it will be well worth while staying up overnight... Get the popcorn and drinks in....
The tories are doomed to extinction, for sure
to be replaced by the same people DUH
it will just keep moving further and further to the right because that's what it's poisonous geriatric membership want.
Its the normal UK electoral cycle, nothing more
Big time!
We have a new tory party replacing the old one with starmer 😮
Remember he's an unelected prime minister Sunak .never had any mandate from the British people via a general election to be prime minister,he's held the position as prime minister on proxy via a sham of a 1922 leadership contest because the tories were desperate to stay in power after the disasters of Johnson and Truss.
I do get tired of telling people this. You elect the party not the leader. Its up to them. They pick who is in charge. And can change them at any time they wish. The trouble is the Tories are full of different factions and back stabbers and have a history of turning on their leaders. Look at Blair and Brown. Gordon slimed and briefed his way into the top job, as he knew no one would vote for the Party with him in charge. And when it came to an election they were out. Its going to be the same with Sunak. You are not wrong in the fact that no one voted for the Tories with Sunak in charge, as they would never have won last time if he was. Its all very sneaky and underhand and you are correct on that. Watch when Labour gets in, I am betting Angela Raynor ends up as the Prime Minister before their first term is over......
@@Simon-xc5oy Yes, agreed... I get fed up with people making that comment too... Another thing that we have ' discovered ' is this habit of the MP to join another party, mid-term... I think we are all realising that, on the Ballot paper, we are being asked to put our ' X ' in a certain box... It means that we are voting for a specific PERSON... and not the party... Can be a bit confusing to many of the electorate, but that is probably why we are not educated in these things... Ignorance is bliss to the political parties !
they'll no doubt be calling in the PPE favours
“Why no bounce for the Prime Minister?” ……because he’s a lead balloon
Oh dear, how sad, what a shame or should that be what a sham.
Definitely the second one.
Tories want to run now 😂
He as never been in politics for a political belief or a passion for the country and its population , so no loss
If anyone of them had a ounce of love for the country and there constituents they would have resisigned, but they waited till the last moment to try and imply they were somehow working on behalf of the country, they should all never be allowed to sit as any type of mp
Evil entities
Rats deserting a sinking rat
Lizard Truss, getting rich from selling the country down the river and pure incompetence!
At least she was elected to the post of PM by the party, not shoe horned in like Sunak.
Most criminals don't want to return to court when they know that the jury is about to deliver a guilty verdict.
Yep, they can hold onto their delusion that people would have still voted for them
Oh my ... they are going to lose soooo bad .. 20 seats ...
We are the losers as the seats are going to be replaced with red torys
We all can hope !
This jumping of the Tory ship just goes to prove that they possessed very little loyalty to the party or their constituents or this country, it’s me me me, just cowards running away from the fight,
The problem is... If many of the rats jump across to Labour, then we still haven't got rid of them.... These people are the problem, not the solution... !
Guy Walter’s the historian, was shrewdly spot on with his analysis on X (Twitter) this morning “If you're a Tory MP in your 50s and you want to make some proper money, there is literally no point in being in opposition for a decade until you are about to retire.” Michael Gove, is very shrewd and has come to a similar decision, undoubtedly having had a conversation with some media proprietors.
Alternatively, being in opposition he will no longer be in the cabinet, and will no longer be able to work on big projects. So he’s better off leaving.
they'll be off to cushy seats on boards where they do fk all, or well paid propaganda columns in the tory press.
GOOD RIDDANCE.
This "campaign" is giving me record levels of Schadenfreude
@svresh In buckets!
I have no sympathy for any of them. So they are not ready!?!? When would they be? They KNEW there was an election this year! It shows you how badly they think ahead and plan. And the deserters know they have no chance of re election with Sunak in charge or anyone else. So they are bailing. People like Gove etc are no great loss. They will be lucky to find people willing to stand from within the party. Which shows they are all in it for what they can get and not to improve life for the voting public by doing their jobs. I think Sunak has just given up, called it and he knows they are toast, sooner rather than later. He and his wife will be off out of it as soon as the dust is settled.
It's fueling me 😂
I have to check my self-righteousness on a daily basis with this lot 😂😂😂😂
Years of failure......
Many people are saying 14 years... I would suggest AT LEAST 50 years...
"...the leaflets that have to go onto the streets..."
Yep. That's where most of them will end up. In the streets.
I had one through my door from the local Labour candidate the day after the election was called. I binned it and did not read it. Not remotely interested in anything Labour or Tories have to say. Nothing will change. Things will continue to decline, its just different faces in charge. I am glad the Tories are going to be out though. Hopefully for at least 15 years...
@@Simon-xc5oy Is it possible to do something useful with this literature.... Maybe use it as toilet paper ?
Sly rodents fleeing from the burning building....
They deserting ‘cos they know the floor will be wiped clean with them.😂
People are really struggling 😢
1:47 Oh look
An immigrant on a boat… 👀
😂😂😂so true
Dont worry..grant snapps will still be there..he will do anything to stay put
He's the MP for my constituency and I'll certainly be doing my bit at the polling station to make sure that he isn't an MP after July 5th.
Why would they jump ship in a booming economy, lower interest rates,lower immigration, mass infrastructure development, thriving Nhs 😂😂 and world peace😂😂😂
Sunak sent a memo to his cohorts " the jig is up grab your swag and leg it "
Gove and Leadsom attempting to distance themselves from their legacy looks as desperate and self-serving as it is.
It's like a bank robbery gone wrong. Its everyone for themselves, and Sunak, the biggest thief of the lot, is left holding the money bags as the police raid the safe house.
Transparency integrity and accountability, at every level 😂
ZERO SEATS!!!
No thought of their constituents - just thinking of themselves
I'm so glad I have common sense to have never voted in my life for a bunch of people that don't know what the truth is
"Well, for 90K plus a year it was okay. But now I want to get back to reality. Byeeeeee!"
200 seats not filled. Under lectoral law they have four working days to get candidates registered
When you don’t feel you can defend your policies, ideas or record - leave politics.
Career politicians wont stay if they dont get the profits power gives them. In a uni party country what does it matter if they have to go red instead of blue tory
Michael was once complaining about levels of CO2. I wrote saying we each exhale 2.3 tons of CO2 each year, how should we reduce this. His reply was "well we breathe in and breath out, so it cancels itself out". He was minister for education at the time .............. with great science like that we are goosed
Cowards
They know they're getting a whooping so they're leaving to save themselves the embarrasment. Nothing more, nothing less
Sunak, although obviously not blame free is a scapegoat for the total failure of the last 14 years from this bunch
What are they playing at Conservative MPs have totally let us all down you haven't thought about your constituents you only think of yourselves and you expect us to vote,you need to do More than that
... & then Pob ran away too ! 😂
😆🏆
Jumping Ship , Have you spelt that right ?
‘The Island’ needs a written constitution and a complete overhaul of it’s outdated political system.
You mean like the written constitution of the USA which their Supreme Court seems to be reinterpreting into meaningless gobbledegook.
A great time for Labour Socialism to reinvent UK society. Workers are rising up to take control of the means of production.
Labour wont do that. Vote independent candidates!
I'd love to see that but Starmer will never allow it and neither will half the party since they are ex Tories
all those who thought Brexit was good idea are leaving a sinking ship not staying about for moment the ship sinks , they made millions out of being in government now can retire while next party has to repair the mess they left
Well rats do leave a sinking ship.
What did the fools who put him there think was going to happen?
All his crew wearing red lanyards. Hedging their bets presumably
Very very bad government
They have failed the people and the country, None of them should be allowed to take their pensions.
Gove away!!
Love it! ❤😂
Doesn't want to be a war time leader as Ukraine escalate
MP's deserting Sunak and unelected, out of touch and inept prime minister. He ought to have stood down but obviously he is power crazy and is putting himself before the country.
Check the weather? Get your candidates ready? Policies? All too much for these morons. I still blame Nick Clegg for the entire fiasco. But ultimately, people voted to have longer waiting lists and now they can finally vote to have shorter ones.
What is he? 4'11 ?
Four days to find 200 candidates, the tea lady and security guard, are being considered for Hatfield and Hendon.
I can't see Tory MPs saying they feel stressed when they step down in the news agencies. Where have they gone?
And there are still fools who will vote for them
I dont think they are fools. I think anyone who votes Tory now is truly evil.
Anyone who votes Tory, should be considered as a Traitor...
Any time a conservative has a hint that they might be held accountable for their actions either in the polls or the courts they run away. All the ones leaving should have their allowances taken away immediately
EVERY MP should be held accountable for the consequences of their actions...
I suspect it has more to do with needing bodyguards and two MP's being murdered in recent years. What used to be quite a safe job with the changes we are going through in this country, that's no longer the case
Rats always jump ship
Selfservatives
Replying ‘look…’ when youre answering a question doesn’t make you eloquent.
Money train ending they are in it for themselves
Nothing will change! establishment ngo civil servants still working in the shadows
Nice footage of the wef training centre in parliament.. This parliament is an absolute disgrace, they are not fir the people but against them from all angles.
The ' T ' word comes to mind... And I don't mean Tory...
@@richardruff8712The modern Tories have just been living up to the original meaning of that name - it comes from an old Irish word for a robber, outlaw or brigand.
Resignation be more honorable.
Who would want Ship Jumpers as your MP?!
They have all made a mess
Er!! They say children can see through 🐂 s**t when adults cant!! My 15 year old granddaughter said to me when Sunak was picked as PM, " Grandad he looks like a teenager!!
Hinestly, I cant see him now as anything else, and to be honest he sounds like a teenager waffling about things they dont understand!!
Imagine, a flagship policy for a coutry at this juncture in world affairs, "" banning smoking" ???? Really??? He didn't say quite how this was meant to be achieved!! So good riddance - oh!! Look another nightmare!!! "Sir Starmerer"!! Another politician spouting gobblygook, for want of a better term based on sphericals!!!!!!God help the UK!!!!!!
“Make it look like things are working”🤣
Eh....that's devotion to duty . So much for party and principal. So much for serving the public . Totally disgusting. Yes HMS. Rishi is going down by the head. He's not even said . Abandoned ship and the rats are leaving already..
14 years too late!
Gove has always been over the edge.
They don't want that 'Portillo' moment !!
They won't get it, but I am betting on a LOT of ' Portillo ' moments, in the early hours of 5th July 2024.... Exciting, isn't it ?
Over a hundred seats unable to find a candidate. This constituency included.
Good
Lots of jealousy going on as did when Boris was in office!
He's jumping ship, to prevent himself from being punched while out campaigning.
Lots will go to the House of Lords
They all did their duty on tipping the country further in favor of the wealthiest 1%. Now it’s time to leave the government and get their pay outs.
Give, smiley, nicely, but what is it😂😂👍
Massive error
Martine Croxall is back on BBC News at 12 noon today
Whoever leave the party, party should let them go instead of stay in and create/created problems.
Soggy Sunak is deliberately trying to lose....
Goodbye felicia 😂😂😂
Conservatives 😢 labour 😢 = TAX TAX TAX, SPEND SPEND SPEND 😮
For tge Tories its a gravy train. Now the far right mob
PRIME MINISTER Sunak and his friends can migrate to Rwanda. It is the new thing in the town.
Free flight, free accommodation, and 3k in the pocket
We must all try to remember that this Tory government have declared Rwanda to be a ' safe ' Country.... So how many of our wonderful politicians would like to go and live there ?..... My guess is VERY, VERY few...... Maybe ZERO...?
All leaving before there tax avoidance arrangements are exposed.
For a moment i thought Wishy washy was on a return journey, with Dover cliffs behind him...
Are any tory supporters/voters seeing this nonsense?
Haven't found ANYONE out there who is admitting to be a Tory voter.... Everybody is finally realising the truth....
Another 10 years if Tories
