Rishi Sunak - The Next UK Prime Minister?
Discussion
I guess I, like many of you have just watched Boris make his latest lockdown statement - told us nothing at all, and just diverts us to the Gov.uk website! How lazy is that of him? - no meaningful leadership.. He is out of his depth and dare I say missing the advise of Dominic Cummings..?! We need someone else - Possibly Rishi Sunak? Opinions..?

Mr Sunak has looked like a calm, competent hero whilst giving billions away. He will look like a calm and competent Chancellor when he starts pulling it back, but he will rapidly become a lot more unpopular.
Well it didn't work too well for some bloke called Gordon when he got "promoted" to PM did it? 
To be fair I think Boris has done OK trying to deal with a pandemic on a scale we have never seen before, at the same time as Brexit.
But as alternatives go surely the apparently sensible Tories like Jeremy Hunt, Matt Hancock, etc. make more sense than Rishi?
Dishi Rishi is obviously nothing more than a stooge and a yes man for the banksters, globalists and corporatists who really run this country, so the logical conclusion is that yes he been brought in to be parachuted into the top spot.
But there again perhaps he is more of a useful economic puppet for our bankster rulers as chancellor rather than as PM ? As the PM's job is actually more of a meaningless figurehead?

Sunak is young and inexperienced and hasn't had much of a chance to make mistakes yet.
He is probably the best of a bad bunch though.
All those tainted by lockdown, Boris, Hancock and Gove, need to go and count themselves lucky if they don't receive a thrashing on their way. They have let themselves be played so I think their crime is more stupidity than malice but such utter stupidity that is destroying the country should earn them a rapid exit.

And yet he has made many mistakes.He is probably the best of a bad bunch though.

He is as tainted by the mistakes over Covid as any.
There is no suitable candidate for PM left in the Parliamentary Tory Party. Any suitable candidates were purged. The country is now reaping the whirlwind. The next general Election is too far away, we face years of further damage and crisis before we get a chance to stop it.
My money is on Gove sliming his way to the leadership. It's his "turn". 2 ex-opinion journalist PMs in a row. And another, current one, at the side of the new PM. We are in a very, very dark place.
Gove is very capable at the despatch box, but his history with Johnson goes way back, as does his changing views on him...!
