I bet it will be Liz Truss. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. One unprincipled 'dumb blonde' replaced by another.
There are worse possibilities; save us from Priti Patel or Jacob Rees Mogg!
I don't expect a GE soon; the Tories in parliament don't want to risk losing their seats, especially after the Tiverton and Wakefield by-elections.
