I'd expect Truss to follow Biden's lead.

She wouldn't nuke Russia if America didn't nuke them first.

To paraphrase Nigel ..

Oh, Dracula comes from Transylvania
Stevie Nicks books about kleptomania
Boris looked out of his airplane window
And shouted to his mum...

So, at the last shout, Sunak had over 200 votes, Johnson claimed he'd got 102 nominations, and Mordaunt said she had 90. Bearing in mind that there are 352 Tory MPs it's no surprise they fucked up the economy with maths like that.

Methinks Johnson's 102 votes were a bit like the 40 new hospitals he built and that £350M a week for the NHS.

Or as my sister-in-law posted on Farcebook:

Not sure about this but looked at in a certain way we have today at The Buckingham Palias, KC & the Sunak Band, supported by Loopy Liz & the Trussolini's and the novelty act Kami Kwazi & the Econo messes.

Jesus H Christ on a crutch. Sunak's first cabinet is a complete and utter shit-show. He's even reinstated Braverman as Home Secretary after she was forced to resign just last week for breaching the ministerial code. To describe it as "right-wing" would be like describing Boris Johnson as "That lovable little fibber". Beware of imminently impending jackboots.
