Ok, Gato, lets put this in some context, here. Perhaps you're lacking the insight. You seem to be championing these two as some heroes of great virtue. Lets be clear: Sunak is the same guy who has openly admired and supported the idea of a centralised digital banking currency. That's even ignoring his wifes questionable financial dealings. Javid, meanwhile, was the same guy who was caught on tv telling health workers that opposed mandatory vaccines that they are spreading disinformation and if they didn't like it they should resign.
"and he too will have no more of the farce, a rebuke all the more stinging for coming from one who has championed such awful policy himself. (or, if one is of a cynical bent, perhaps a smokescreen to run away before the consequences of having pushed such pabulum land.)"
I just don't agree. They see an opporunity to execute the final blow to a dastardly corrupt and inept leader and in doing so parlay the credited virtue into promotion.
Love you gato malo, bow down continuously to your IQ and courage, but Richard is right on this funny English political rat behaviour thing.
You are right in that if the Tory MPs ever spot that Covid was got wrong and people are dying and kids are sick as a result they will kick Boris's head in. But we are a long way away from that day.
I think The Telegraph comments are a good indicator of Tory party feelings and people have become very aware of covid failures recently. They have 70,000 subscribers.
I can't see Tory party members voting for either of them as PM. They are too mired in the recent policy failures and chaos. There is a lot of anger in the ranks about recent failure to have conservative policies. I really hope that's the case. I think we'll get an outsider if Boris goes.

i think you need to re-read the piece.
i have done nothing of the sort.
"and he too will have no more of the farce, a rebuke all the more stinging for coming from one who has championed such awful policy himself. (or, if one is of a cynical bent, perhaps a smokescreen to run away before the consequences of having pushed such pabulum land.)"
Then I was wrong. But are you aware that Sunak, after this apparent display of found conscience, is the overwhelming favorite to be the next PM.
So a rebuke? I think not.
how not?
it may also be a prime bit of political opportunism, but it's still quite the rebuke.
these are the canny rats jumping ship to distance themselves from the implosive failure that's clearly coming.
I just don't agree. They see an opporunity to execute the final blow to a dastardly corrupt and inept leader and in doing so parlay the credited virtue into promotion.

It'll be Liz Truss (Baroness Von Thatcher 2)
oh, apparently Penny Mordaunt! Never heard of her.

I think Gato is saying the rats are jumping ship. This is evidence that the vaxx narrative is calapsing. He is not applauding them.
