If this is true, could next week’s heatwave affect her chances?

Of course she’s funded by those loons. She seems awful. 
 

Edit - Turns out this probably isn’t real.

Daily mails really gunning for Mordaunt today. Not sure she can be both a left and right wing Trojan horse at the same time.

 

Quote

she co-authored, a sort of vision for post-Brexit Britain with a foreword by none other than billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates.

The book also gives us a telling insight into what she might plan for this country should she become Prime Minister.

For if this is her blueprint, much of it would appear distinctly unConservative to the Party faithful. It is telling that Tony Blair described the work as a ‘really important book’.

In it, she and Lewis - a Remainer who is now masterminding her campaign - tear into the ‘antiquated’ workings of Parliament, suggest there should be an elected House of Lords and that the MBE and OBE should be ditched.

They launch a surprisingly vicious attack on old British films and TV series - particularly those written by Dad’s Army creators David Croft and Jimmy Perry who are criticised for their ‘nostalgic focus’. The sitcom It Ain’t Half Hot, Mum - set in Burma during the war - is described as ‘a full-house bingo card of...casual racism, homophobia, white privilege, colonialism, transphobia, bullying, misogyny and sexual harassment’.

In fact, much of the book is a paean to wokery. As Toby Young, director of the Free Speech Union tweeted yesterday, it is a ‘great pitch for the leadership... of the Labour Party.’

I’m pulling for Truss. Why wouldn’t you want a PM that can’t find the only door to a room that they came through minutes before?

yeah...in terms of next election I think labour's best hope is Truss...although no idea if Sunak or Mordaunt would fair much better...
