Regardless Johnson lied and inflated his figures when bragging about it last week.

gun crime in Hudds seems to be at the same level as Moss Side in the 90's now. I can remember getting held up in the Sheepridge bookies by armed robbers and it made the front page of The Examiner!

Boris Johnson 126
Jeremy Hunt 46
Michael Gove 41
Rory Stewart 37
Sajid Javid 33
Dominic Raab 30

Raab out. So Rory can get stuck right intae Bozza tonight.

Orpheus Knutt (Tom D.), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 17:05 (six years ago)

xp Raab out, Javid just on 33, Stewart up to fourth (on 37), Boris only picked up 11 votes to 126 (assuming he's not galaxy-braining to lend votes to preferred opponents)

Well, I’ve got a friend coming over for dinner and the latest episode of a dystopian shitshow and we’re also watching Years & Years.

The makeup crew will be relieved Raab’s out anyway.

Gove must be shitting himself but as that’s his normal facial expression it’s difficult to say.

He is calm and shitting himself as he normally does

Boris - honey monster

Some light humour from what I hope is a parody account

No fan of Rory Stewart. Just another Tory Brexiter knob. But -

I DO NOT get the logic of saying he can't be PM because 'he might have spied for MI6'.

Guys, guys... MI6 are on OUR side. You do know that, right?

I'd guess May voted for Hunt, possibly Stewart with an outside chance of Javid

Oy McVey (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 18:36 (six years ago)

I read or heard something earlier that she'd switched to Stewart as she'd decided he was the best chance of getting her WA through without writing his name on it or something.

it's a lonely path that Javid walks, nobody from the bald (alien egg-head) community wants to claim him as one of theirs, he's shunned by the Con-home community and the Asian community all think he's a total prick. But lol.. fuck him!

calzino, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 18:36 (six years ago)

The afternoon Desi Twitter accused him of using boil-in-the-bag rice was top online clowning tbf.

All 30 of those Raab votes are going to Johnson so expect the other three to descend on the Saj's 33 endorsements like a pack of ravenous hyenas.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 18:47 (six years ago)

Now picturing poor Saj’s votes as Scar at the very end of the Lion King

stress tweeting (gyac), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 18:53 (six years ago)

FWIW: if all Raab's votes went to Johnson, and all the other candidates merged into a single Anyone But Boris bloc, the ABB bloc would be just one single vote ahead.

Rory 'Stewpot' Stewart signalling his difference by not wearing a tie and perching on the edge of his stool with his feet planted on the studio floor.
