"Mad, Bad, And Dangerous" Suella Braverman Bows Out Of Leadership Contest!

The Conservative Party: “You don’t like these nutters - we have others!” Braverman is now in position to join Reform: 5 years as a Tory backbencher or a big fish in Reform’s small fascist pool. Having said that, I don’t think Farage will like having her in his party - another monstrous ego to compete with. Of the headbangers, Bad Enoch has the best chance. She is as evil as Braverman but didn’t hold the government positions long enough to fail in the way Braverman did. She is atrocious though and she, or whoever leads the Tory Party next, will hopefully fail as it usually takes a few leaders before they realise they need to appeal to voters in the middle.
