Liz Truss will determine who succeeds Rishi Sunak | Tim Shipman

“Liz Truss will be a very key player in helping to decide who it is that succeeds Rishi Sunak.”

Suella Braverman and Kemi Badenoch are strong candidates for the next Tory leader, both of whom will have to lobby those who agree with Trussonomics, says Tim Shipman.

Why would someone who was forced out in disgrace after a few weeks as PM still hold any sway over the party at all?

What’s Liz Truss goal except shrinking the Tories size to below the LibDems? Never mind, I just remember it’s killing the economy of course!

The perception of voters in general is of a party which is detached from reality, so the fact that the Conservative party is determined to follow Alice down the rabbit hole is no surprise to them.

I generally like Tim's analysis, but he's trying hard here to toe the line from The Times, and still present the Tories as a plausible government.

If you want an idea of where the Tories are going, take a look at the Republicans in the US.

Blindly following Donald Trump, the scary thing is Trump actually has a fair chance of being re-elected.

The UK isn't quite there yet, which is why we need an incoming Labour government to really get things done. If not we will have Braverman as PM in 5 years.

Liz Truss is a weak woman - really not up to being PM nor deciding who should be.
