      I mean yes but also i am kind of glad he is out for now but his impact on the tories will still he there for years even if they lose their majority in tbe next GE i feel there will alot of his allies still there for now to continue to push in their direction from the back benches. But that’s the cynic in me.

    Good. I think this is a dangerous time, though.

    I can see him & other tearaway Tories setting up an even worse party and trying to bring over there diehards. Him and his cronies have tasted blood (read: stealing from and fucking the public) and in my opinion, that isn’t something they are going to want to give up completely.

    General election can’t come soon enough.

      I don’t see it as a bad thing if the right-wing vote splits between the Tories and a new party.

        I’d be worried that the Tory party would panic and do whatever it takes to bring them back into the fold, giving us an even more right leaning Tory party.

          Yes, I see that as the most likely outcome unfortunately.

      How many parties have split from the tories now? Ukip, reform, brexit. I would even say BNP is just slightly more blue tory
