Sunak will be forced to call a June election | Jane Mulkerrins 

Please, please, let it be June, if not sooner.

Regarding the Wragg incident: In any other career, it's an instant dismissal. He opened himself to blackmail, then immediately gave the goods on other MPs. The whole thing is a potential breach of national security.

Just call it now, we've had enough of the circus

Dead Party Walking

His wife has had enough so we are looking at a June/July Election to coincide with his kids school holidays.

Do it already. It’s unbearable!

Are you all losing your minds? Feeling sorry for an MP that’s handed over others numbers? And the MP are all very “mind my glasses, we need security from the public” and yet they’re handing over their own numbers. It’s a huge security issue.

*TORIES CRYING IN SPORTS CENTRES AT 3.00AM* as Supertanski says - thats what keeps me going - I have not lived in the UK for 15 years but Im registered and SET to vote...!!!

Dragging it out so he can feather his own nest while he still can.

This is SOOOO PAINFUL just call a GE!!😩😫😫😩

Any MP that can be compromised should be required to resign. What if was a foreign agent after information that was sensitive for national security? Sexting is a massive lever for later blackmail. He should go.

Why don't he go now, rumour is his wife is fed up with living in England, where she goes, he goes. baa baa baa baa.

14 years enough is enough

Noble and Rishi Sunak in the same sentence, never before used.

Call a May election!

Please let’s get this done.

Sunak will have to be forced or he’s going nowhere. He is hanging on for an India trade deal that will enrich himself and family and see immigration rocket.

We can but hope. Personally i dont think Sunak will give up his throne that easily. He seems to believe the public will change our minds about him and his corruption and vote for him. It won't happen though.

Good the sooner the better ,get rid of these complete incompetents ,the only thing they are interested in,is saving themselves

against Rishi's nightmare prediction of another party returning our country to "square one" i would think millions would be delighted to reset before the Tories came in...has anyone kept a tally of their lies and broken pledges !

Get Torexit Done. Now, please.

Get them out they are a party they don't care about the people on there £90,000 a years

Champagne on ice 😂😂😂😂😂

It's about time too...GENERAL ELECTION NOW !!!

Slippery eel sunak 😂

Please have it on June 11 my birthday treat

These people talk about politics and elections like it's a big game, they're completely detached from the real impact of it all

I don't understand the political and media response to the Wragg business. The exchange of explicit images isn't an issue - they were solicited and no-one was underage so it's his private life and not a resigning matter. I'd have given it a raised eyebrow, a 'dearie, dearie me', and moved on. However, Wragg giving the private numbers of his colleagues to people that he *knew* were blackmailers seems to me to be a very grave offense. If I'd done something similar in any job I've ever had I'd have been summarily dismissed and immediately escorted off the premises by security - I'd genuinely consider myself lucky if I was allowed the opportunity to resign before I was fired. Why hasn't he resigned? Why isn't anyone calling for his resignation?

Rishi Sunak on Monday should be calling a general election now. It's clear the Tories are useless. I've never voted Conservative or Labour in my life, never will, but you would think the Tories would at least throw out some referendums at the very least. Why not one on Proportional representational voting, net zero needs a referendum on whether we go down the wind and solar energy path (unreliable and self harming in my opinion) or we go nuclear power and fracking. Let's have one on free speech, because it's clear both the Tories and Labour haven't a clue what free speech actually is anymore. The Tories can't even give the public that.

Can't wait for the General Election.

Election or not, nothing can stop UK nose diving to become the poor, old, lonely man of Europe.

I predict the Tories only getting a maximum of sixty seats i cant see them getting anymore than that

Why sympathy for Wragg, but not the others - they all did the same thing?

"Thank you for shopping at Tescos" Sunak

Proportional representation please.

They can't stretch the Angela Rayner "story" until the autumn.

The Tories "got Brexit done". Then Brexit got Britain done. Now we need to get the election done, so the people can get the Tories done, once and for all.... the sooner the better!

Groundhog days anyone?

So, is the suggestion the purse will be completely empty come June and there wont be any more grift to be had by Sunak and his mates by then. The next election will be the formal handing over of the empty purse, its the Tory way.

The population of the uk will never elect Sunak not ever

Sunak needs to call something because he is useless

Too many people on holidays. Public will feel robbed if it’s in the summer.

He won’t next budget in November giving all sorts away election Xmas time.

How did this guy get a ticket for Glastonbury? Serious question. Hope he can respond here.

I don't get the sympathy for Wragg. If he'd sent a picture of himself, fine, who cares? But he gave out numbers for others? Slimy behavior, cowardice, and not a small amount of stupidity.

Please please June….do you imagine how painful it is to watch this mess in the UK from Europe?😢

Wragg has shown a series of major misjudgements not the least of which has been putting his colleagues at risk to save his own skin. Why is he not gone?

Hunt, Rees-Mogg, Truss, the list goes on wouldn't it be wonderful if these incompetents were to have to stand in front of the cameras having just lost their seats. Those that have got the country into this mess all getting sacked by their constituents.

As long as its not October i want to go on holiday and not be distracted by the election

One can always hope !

June or December it is impossible 100% ! He will definitely retain power for some more time! ( HINT) Remote control is in South Asia! Wait until June 5th for general election results in South Asia! Lots of things will change in uk politics from then!

May local elections will force him into a decision i suspect 🎉

Power corrupts an absolute power corrupts apsolutel

Loving the vibe from the anchor, Jane Mulkerrins. Times Radio please bring her back. 🙏🏻

Wragg is considered a 'special' case because his choice of partner is a protected characteristic. However, his buddies and MP's who had trusted their mob numbers with a fellow conservative has he thrown them under the bus metaphorically speaking? They remain vulnerable.

Not we can’t stop any sales, of course not. Even if there is the worst atrocity the world has ever seen, those sales need to keep rolling.

When is the snake going

I wont be voting till this WAR has stopped!

The country has had enough of the tory pantomime.

Just to say, he’s going to hang on to the bitter end. I’ve always thought he would. Facing humiliation is difficult for anyone. To be so utterly rejected as prime minister could be soul-destroying (see truss). But he’s got a few million so that might help.

"I just have a witchy sense" is news, now? 🙄

Systems bent

Zombie government 🧟‍♂️🧟🧟‍♂️

It’s JUST a pothole!!! LOL

Absolutely

Let Braverman go to Israel in the current climate. No leadership. Makes it up half an hour before he speaks. Like to see way under 100 seats. The electorate won't forget Parties or the allegations of corruption in a hurry, nor should they. Absolute disgrace.IMO.

It's still very much possible that Sunak decides to resign (that is jump before he is pushed) *without* calling a general election and leave it to the rebels in the party to sort out the mess.

How on earth can British citizens sit down and watch Prime Ministers get imposed on them and still believe in transparency and democratic governance? It is seriously hard to believe!

Large C, Clown Conservatives 🤦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🧐

He wants 2 years as PM on his cv, then there will be an election.

If Reform pick up the gammons the Tories could be in single figures.

'Sunak will be forced to call a June election ' No, the election will be later to allow a few more MP wages and to keep up the hope for some time. My guess - GE around Halloween!

Goodness me, the Times has really gone down the pan......

do we know how man of the population will bother to vote.......................

A witchy sense and a thirst for drama. Christ

I don’t want drama , i just want my country run by people who represent the wishes of the people who voted for them .

"Polls get things wrong"! Absolute tosh. Both an incapacity to use the English language correctly and a failure to understand what polling is about. Such people need to undertake a course on "polling" to find out how it is carried out, what it is measuring, what the polling questions are, what the margin of error is, etc.

Still, a lot more damage can be done by the tories. Hopefully, the election will happen soon.

i want proportional representation

These government people are supposed to be consumate professionals?????? Sadly not and this just sums up MP's , Local councillors etc. What a load of Barclays Ban....!!!

Turnout for Tories will dwindle the later we get into the year

I've got a bet with Natasha Clarke of LBC (she doesn't know it, but we do) because she keeps saying that it's going to be November, and I've always maintained it's June.

I think at the moment that Wragg decided to pass his colleague’s details over to a blackmailer, he ceased to be worthy of anything but disdain. Man up, call the police and don’t just pass the problem on to others.

Election in June.At last,some good news.

Well a witch would!

Does England really want 20mph speed limit. 😂

If they cared about the efficient, cost-effective way of holding an election they would have held it at the same time as the local elections. But of course the Tories don't actually care about that but I've a funny feeling that they will care again when Labour are back in charge.

Just hope he doesn’t make a scene when he eventually goes, I sure you’ll all want to wish him good luck and Bon-voyage . I’ve already prepared mine for Khan but you tube wouldn’t allow me to print it

Hoping the right wing glued to The Euros ? 🙈

Perhaps MP's should just be banned from using Whatsapp, most of these scandals seem to come from there

Oh he finally got the message? I think we have been upfront about how we feel the Torys. 🤬

It's a resigning matter. This is a fool in a position of power who has exposed himself (pun intended) as a national security risk.

This conversation started well until the fake laughter started.

😂😂😂😂 smoking Rubble

June?! Election Now ..!.,

General election through by- elections?

You know this isn’t a game right?

Rishi Sumac won't be bothered if he loses the man is filthy rich he will just walk away

is he hanging on to his Y fronts ? or is he going to lose them as well?

Labour still can’t afford complacency
