BRING BACK BORIS! Penny is still my choice of the rest but it now seems a real possibility that Boris could return. He's the only real big hitter and the party and the country need him back.

Gulliver I think you’ve done Boris a massive favour after all, keeping his name alive since he even took the PM job and after,so I guess it’s a thank you for this, we conservative voters will be forever in your debt

I did point out this irony some months ago when he was still clinging on.
Seems the skeletons are emerging:
/Ukraine deletes tweet featuring meme of Boris Johnson
Amid mounting speculation Boris Johnson may attempt to return as prime minister following Liz Truss's resignation, the official Twitter account of Ukraine's government posted a tweet that appeared to be supportive of the former leader.
Mr Johnson is popular in Kyiv for his backing of the country in its war with Russia's invading forces.
However, the meme based on Netflix series Better Call Saul and posted by the @Ukraine account triggered a significant backlash, with some even pointing to the Uxbridge MP's alleged links with Russian figures including Evgeny Lebedev - newspaper owner and son of ex-KGB agent Alexander.
Evgeny Lebedev was made a lifelong peer in the House of Lords during Mr Johnson's tenure as PM. /
Oh I do so wish he wins!
The division in the party is immense, he already has double the votes of Mordaunt! PMSL

Johnson still has a parliamentary inquiry hanging over him. If he lied to parliament (which he surely did), then he can be suspended.
PM suspended wouldn’t exactly be a vote winner and the 1922 know that.
If a Commons ban is more than 10 days, a by election can be forced in his Uxbridge seat. Reigning PM fights by election is another scenario that the party managers would be eager to avoid.
