- “Now some of them are trying to coordinate a last minute rush of letters of no confidence to Sir Graham Brady, on the grounds that perhaps he could be removed before Parliament is prorogued.”
“Upset” Conservatives MPs are trying to stop a general election by booting out Sunak before the end of the week, says The Times’s Red Box editor Lara Spirit.

Every single one of them needs to never set foot in Westminster ever again after what they have done to this Country
Then it is up to the people to act accordingly on Independence Day....
and those who voted them in should have their houses sold to pay for the damage.
Except for George Galloway.
@richardruff8712 This is NOT merca, independence day means nothing here.
Agree 100% and I am not voting Labour. May vote for another. I will never vote for conservative again
Shameful. They’re only after an additional 6 months of MP income. How about putting the country first?
Yes, they didn't care when they scrapped Tax Credits and lost me £3.5 K!
How about actually helping constituents instead of chasing extra doses of power. Disgusting.
@@paulburton9386 well, there are jobs out there to replace it
politicians put the country first? I don't think so...!

Get the Tory’s out
'Tories'.
Shouldn't worry about that one as they will get themselves out without your help or mine.
Agreed, and whilst we're about it also keep the despicable Labour Party out as well.
Yet bring in Grooming Gang Labour.
To put who in Tories more of the same Labor open borders crime through the roof as for the rest pick you poison
The ones who are bleating are worried about losing their MP income.
And their backhanders....and payment for lobbying, questions, etc.
EXACTLY
Yup few months lost, but surely they knew this was coming sooner or later
pigs with their snouts in the trough
Should've joined RefUK plc, they were offering to pay their wages if they lost.
Shambles right up to the last minute...
self serving to the very end
They are so full of themselves they cannot see what this effort says about them as individuals.
True facts betrayed
He looks like a gold mine 🤣
A farcical end to an abysmal government.
Fitting I guess.
Perfect, wasn't it ?... The ' optics ' of it all... Drowned rat, deckchair, sinking party, orchestra playing ' Things can only get better '... It couldn't be done any better !
Hopefully an end to an abysmal epoch of 5 terrible governments.
Be GONE Sunak
He soon will be BYGONE SUNAK
YES you right Sunak BIG P00 LOL
And the rest of them in the Commons, sickening🤬🇬🇧
@@maderleinethomas4213 Sunak BIG 💩💩💩 LOL
Take those who voted for the tories from 2019 sell their houses to pay for the damage they did
Vote out to help out. They are all worried about losing their parliament expenses accounts. Richy nutsak is off to LA for the start of the new school term.
Vote out to help out......😂😅❤ That's very good!
Let's get rid of HATE POLITICS and the HATE POLITICIANS.
Couldnt agree more - but maybe you have gone past the point of no return. Rgds.
As long as you don’t think any other party will bring love and prosperity 😂😂😂😂 Naive or what ?
@@HeyBugguLuggs Just different brand colour names,same kind of characters,seems to me.
And their voters
Reform 🇬🇧
A situation for which the phrase "headless chickens" was designed. The Tories really are a right shower.
Zero seats
🙏
I will then believe that there is a God!
Bye Tories.
Vote REFORM
What are their top three policies?@lawrenceabbott5292
No @@lawrenceabbott5292
Can you imagine if they removed him to postpone the election? It could bring people out to the streets but it would definitely put the last nail in the Tory coffin.
I'd laugh and laugh!!!
It won't postpone the election. He's called it. All it will do is show them up one last time and lose them a few more seats
Yes, but another 6 months of an MP's salary is c£46.000, plus expenses.
I think it would be illegal.
to remove Sunak they need to get a majority from all parties voting no confidence in him, then they would have to get the Kings approval to form a new Govt with a new PM since Sunak has already got permission from the King for Dissolution of Parliament
ZERO SEATS!!!!
Not a chance. There are still a few dozen very safe Tory seats - all in rural areas.
Please God!
Just to prove the Tories are stupider than mince they put in letters of no confidence, thinking this will stop the election 😂😂😂
You are being very unkind to mince.... After all, mince is useful !
@@richardruff8712mince is at least united, sort of
Gove liked a mincer! Lol
@@trevdean540 I think he usually chopped it with a razor….
Rishi finally delivers something for the benefit of the british public
Roll on Independence Day, when we can chuck out the idiots who rule us.
You will chuck out one set of idiots and chuck in another set of idiots.
The elections mean nothing, organised by the authorities who actually do run the UK, using whichever Party is in office...
The irony of the 4th July hasn't been lost 😂😂😂 but we must all vote. An uncast vote is a Tory vote by Default. Vote for independents. Vote 4th July 😂😂😂😂
@@Hitchhiker007 Yes. Everybody PLEASE vote for anybody, but NOT Tory.
Or don’t vote labour either.
What do they expect to happen? The new leader to go back to the King and ask to undo the election 😂😂😂
Charlie will be dizzy!!
😂😂😂😂 what a farce
Why do the Conservatives think it will get better the current state is the result of 14 years hard work started by Osborne's Austerity
Given the Train wreck, they've left the economy in why would they get any seats, this is the 1st 5 year parliament on record where your worse off at the end of it
What gives these Tories the right to try and stop the election
Bunch of crooks and liars
Keep Cameron away from farm animals
@@jasoncooper9391 Exactly. Never mind the chlorinated chicken. It's the Cameroned pork that concerns me.
@@jasoncooper9391 oink
Now we know Gove can't stand on one leg and can't tell left from right.
he knows his far right
@@shaun906 very good!
Can they not see how bad that looks, talk about desperation! But then I guess if they cared, half the stuff/behaviour that's gone on in recent years wouldn't have happened. Absolute farce of a party, it's all about them!
No, no, let them do it. Please.
If they jettison Sunak, that changes nothing; the election will still be on the 4th of July. It just means that the Tories will have to do a leadership contest at the same time as they run a general election campaign.
If your goal is to ensure the Tories win zero seats, these people are your greatest allies!
The current crop of conservastive mps are disgraceful
Things can only get Better.
Multi millionaire Rishi will be jetting off to santa monica to make more cash 😮😮
..and he doesn't even seem capable of holding down a job.
He will be moving back to California,
@@billyouka448 Yes luv he will.
Would they like some cheese with that whine?
It needs to be a criminal offence to lie to the public if an MP. They work for us and we deserve to expect truth from them all. Lets call them all out over their lies and call for a new kaw that with stop this BS.
We used to have traitor laws like that for MPs, but then Blair or Cameron removed them.
"What an absolute shower" as Terry Thomas would say
Oh I say.
They didn't want Rwanda flights to blow up in their face, they were scheduled for July🤦♂️
He has "some" work to do, wonderful understatement.
"Close to Sunak's heart". So it is in his wallet?
The Tories don't need a manifesto. It's just more of the same.
They are a one trick pony. tax cuts,tax cuts ,tax cuts.
This just proves MP's are only interested in themselves, they will now be punished
Big question is: Has Lord Cameron booked his flights for a summer holiday for Saturday 6th July 2024?
Probably not as his bin lids will still be in school 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Drowning Street....
The Conservatives are the gift that keeps on giving for Labour. Hahaha
Just seen
If we behaved like the government
We would be arrested
The only problem is its a swap from blue Tories to Red Tories
The Tories' far-right wing took the party to the edge of the abyss, and Mr. Sunak decided to jump. This election could be disastrous for the Tories, and a great opportunity for the UK.
Or Not! We the people will pay whoever wins!
The drip got even wetter yesterday.
Trickle down economics in action.
Drowned rat... deckchairs... ship going down... Orchestra playing ' Things can only get better '... They really couldn't have made the ' optics ' any more perfect !
@@richardruff8712 Titanical!
@@jogriffiths5766 I predict that millions of people will be eagerly watching TV on 4th/5th July, to see the results as they are announced... Quite possibly a LOT of Portillo moments ! ... Exciting, isn't it ?
@@richardruff8712 😁
To be honest there would be nothing funnier than 4 Conservative Prime Ministers in one parliament! The idea that replacing Sunak and calling off the currently scheduled general election, with less than 6 months to go before they have to call a general election, would improve their electoral prospects is insane. At present a large proportion of the electorate despises the Conservatives. If they did that they would be reduced to a laughing stock.
What do you mean... " would be reduced to a laughing stock "....They've all been a laughing stock for at least 14 years... Some would say 50 years !
@@richardruff8712 The thing is though I don't think they have been a laughing stock for the last 50 years, or even the last 14. I am not a Conservative supporter, but if they'd been regarded as a laughing stock for the last 50 or 14 years they wouldn't have been voted back into power multiple times.
@@chrism7969 Yes, a fair comment... We must remember that, at most General Elections, the choice for the voters is either Tory or Labour...... So, if the sitting government is half decent, they usually stay in power... But it is usually the case, that the sitting government stays in power, because the opposition is SO very very poor and dreadful...This is the problem of a democracy with a Duopoly of just 2 main parties...
Sunak: The worst prime minister in my not-so-short lifetime! An unelected prime minister to boot!
An utterly shameless ploy to stop the democratic process in its tracks.
Keeping their gobs shut over at Labour, has been necessary, given how much The Tories have stolen for their policies.
It can only get better!
Or stay the same! when Starmer wins.
I beet Sunak didn't Pay for his Parking 2:32. He is just take take take.
Susnak wanted the summer off.
Mps have is no one has any confidence in any of them full stop
Time to drain the swamp.
As usual tory MPs only care sbput their seat and their income. They are a disgrace!!
Set it up to go late, Oct/Nov but now trying to catch Labour off foot, all he's done is put his own MP's in 'no mans land' and got soaked into the bargain. Political strategy for beginners..
Rishi Rich Sunak the Tory noodle and weak PM
'rich teanak' 😂😂😂
6 months less on the gravy train. What a shower.
Teach them to behave next time. The election has been declared.
No next time?
Wishi Washi announces "this is as good as it gets under the Tories" - why didn't his servant not tell him it was raining and to take an umbrella or pack-a-mac?
They probably need 6 months to blur the line between their legal and illegal income.
Tactical voting, everyone, you vote for the candidate best placed in each constituency to beat The Tory. Zero seats accomplished.
United we stand divided we fall
Reform UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Looking forward to Independence Day 2024!
Independence Day for whom.?
@@paulrudgley1682 USA
The Tories are real innovators in finding new ways to be awful and dumb.
Yes, they have had 14 years to work on it ( and that is just this current bunch of failures )... Some of us would say all parties for the last 50 years !
The next six weeks are going to go very fast for MPs as they try to grab as much as they can now Rainy Rishi has cost them 6 months wages.Just watch those expenses rise!
Polling trend is consistent for 2 years.
Bye bye tories. The end of the party
The vultures are squabbling over their own carcases...
I cannot wait for them to lose their seats they served only themselves and never the people
Who on EARTH is intending to vote Conservative now??!!
He cuts the figure of someone who’s just given up. He’ll be in California by the end of the summer.
Time to take the clown car off the road
It would be absolute insanity to try and replace Sunak after he calls a general election but I am sure it is entirely possible given the state of the Tory party.
We need to evict the lot of them and start again, UK Politics, like US Politics has become corrupted beyond recognition, even well meaning rank amateur's would do better.
A text-book example of political cohesion. So typical of the Tory party, whose mandate to lord it over us peasants has never been in doubt.
Chaotic to the very end.
Why is it in the Times newspaper is the article regarding stock piling water food and necessities in case of emergencies
DO IT! It'll be hilarious to see a Conservative leadership contest during a general election campaign
Caught off guard BY this.
Bye bye Tories.
SUNAK ALLOWED MORE IMIGRANT BOATS IN THAN ANYONE
How embarrassing!
Another bad moment was the sight of the Prime Minister, running through the streets of London, fleeing a crowd of Palestine protesters (anarchists). Now we know why he’s got new trainers.
He doesn’t seem to realise he’s the pm! He could have nipped this madness in the bud but didn’t. To whom does he look for guidance? For Authority? I think we ought to be told.
Fact remains that 7 or 8 MILLION people in the UK will still vote for the Tories on July 4th. That's so messed up.
The rot started when the idiot Cameron called his grubby referendum. There are honorable and decent Tories out there and they have been betrayed by a gang of criminals.
Three comedians, only one will be remembered as an asset to our country!
Only one will remain standing after July 4th 😂
Time to move abroad, though obviously not to anywhere on our own continent of Europe. Like Farage promised to do. ( 27 March 2017 and 29 September 2021 ). But didn’t. 😂😂
Looking at moving to Palestine?
If you guys vote labour,you better move to Pakistan.
Bye.
The media bear huge responsibility for our current crop if politicians. There is no journalistic, in depth scrutiny of their reaction to internal or external events and consequent enaction, or not, of policy or, the events themselves.
Things got out of hand with the Brexit and Trump victories. With the pandemic reset sham democracy was installed. The real thing got a DNR note attached to it. The family were not informed.
It appears my response has been airbrushed. Suffice it to say, democracy has been tagged with a DNR memo since certain unfortunate symptoms emerged in 2016.
Fun times. 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
Something BIG is about to drop and Sunak does not want to be around when it hits! Normally he would have waited until August, had Hunt issue a load of goodies in the August statement and then tried to ride the wave to the finish line.
Sunak has nothing to show to try and convince us to vote Tory. The Rwanda deal is about to fall apart so it's game over, no replay.
I've got a plan I've gotaplan, I've got a plan
,should have had a plan in 2009 he thinks we are thick and have forgotten the last 14 years of decline low wages higher bills we are taxed on everything after we have paid tax on our pay the man is deluded get rid or how sunak would say that's what the people want
Gove hasn't got a leg to stand on in the Eric Morecambe sequence 😂😂😂
Absolute turd!
Watch out, watch out, Michael Gove is about - and looking for a back.
Vote Reform
Gove, convincingly failing a sobriety test, at the beginning.
Why does Gove struggle to stand one leg?
All the little piggies circling the trough to try and keep their snouts in it for as long as possible.
A tory drip in the rain. Can't catch an even break!
Awewwe what a shame now you know how we feel step down we want vote we sick an tired of a useless government
This is absolutely delicious... 😂😂😂
This morning's newspaper headlines poor. 'Drowning Street' (City AM) the best of them. 'Things Can Only Get Wetter' (which is one I heard suggested on Times Radio CZcams clip yesterday evening) would have been good, but, ultimately, I think I might have gone with 'Washed-out Tories call it a Day'.
The Labour lead is only 27 pts. What makes these Tories MPs think they might lose? Fantastic display of competence in Downing St yesterday. The whole country was inspired. Noce musical touch, as well.
Glad to see sarcasm is alive & well!
Look at them in a mad panic I love it roll on voting day
VOTE REFORM AND TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK
Mr Sunak has the absolute authority to call an election, and nobody can stop it.
The torys, worried about losing a few more months on the gravy train.
If they do get the requisite number of letters in to Sir Graham Brady ... I'm going to go out and get the biggest bag of popcorn money can buy - it's going to a great show! 😂🎥
Always said Gove was basically unballanced
Tory autocracy.
