We told on Wednesday how letters of no confidence were reportedly being sent in against the Prime Minister before he announced the date of the election.

Writing on Twitter/X, GB News’ political editor Christopher Hope said: “Wow! Extraordinary but true – some furious Conservative MPs are tonight working on a plot to CALL OFF the General Election by replacing Rishi Sunak as leader before Parliament is dissolved next Thursday.

“One rebel Tory MP tells me he believes ‘several’ more letters of no confidence in Sunak have been submitted to 1922 chairman Sir Graham Brady.

“The senior Conservative MP told me: ‘Today has clearly been an absolute disaster but the election is NOT irrevocable; up until the point of the dissolution of Parliament – when the writs are moved to begin the contests, it can still be aborted. In other words, if enough Tory MPs, who are clearly going to lose their seats in this already utterly shambolic campaign, write to Sir Graham Brady, tomorrow, the election could still be revoked.’”

And then what?

This is just further evidence that the Tories don’t care about democracy, in fact they are a danger to it and need to be got rid of ASAP.
