I'm guessing the election still goes ahead even if they get rid of Rishi beforehand?

I'd imagine so. Can't unset that in motion.

They can untill Thursday. Once the king devolves parliment. Any change is pretty much impossible. But till then. Yes a new leader could halt it.

But my gowd are they nuts. How freaking bad would it look. Come the end of Jan when they are forced to run. I can see voters really punishing them.

But even now its look like sunak called the election to try and stop another leadership challenge.

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
