Imho, the tories are going to lurch further right, then probably split.
But who knows!

      If you think about how far removed they are from the average citizen, it’s just a difference in the number of zeroes.

      UK Median net worth is £305,000
      Farage comes in at around £4,000,000 (13x)
      Sunak comes in at around £730,000,000 (2393x)
      (Figures from Kagi that seemed reasonable, can post sources if people would like to check)

      Both are at the point where they could never work another day in their life, and still live happily.
      Compared to an average person who expects to work until they are 75.

          Sunak’s wife makes sunak look working class, that figure is mostly her.

          I’m not trying to pick holes in the post, its fair to combine them, but also fair to know that it is mostly from his wife.

          Ironic really, he’s head of a right wing bootstrap business party and all his achievements are dwarfed into irrelevance by the inherited wealth of his wife
