He must see an angle.

He sacked Braverman because he's scared she'll inflame tensions before an Election

reply

Because he knows world leaders?

reply

he left in 2016, most world leaders have changed since then.

The cuntry didn't steep low enough after his last stint.
Sunak really wants to sink it underground.
He needs an expert at fuckups like this asshole.

reply

Maybe so many PMs have passed through since he left the scene he needs to boost his after dinner speeches / honoury director cash-in profile a bit...

It's not like any of his successors have covered themselves in glory.

It's not that different a question as why Trump is running again.

reply

trump would never come back to play second fiddle.

But he still has to pay his dues to get back into office.

You don't run for prime minister in the British system. You have to pay your dues and work your way up.

David Cameron becoming prime minister again while not sitting as serving MP is technically possible, and that kind of thing did happen historically. But there's faff all chance of the Conservative Party electing him to be their leader while he's in the Lords (or even if he were back in the Commons, frankly), so he'd have to be directly appointed by the King, which would lead to an epic constitutional crisis. Total meltdown.

In short: not gonna happen. Whatever the plan is, it ain't that.

All I'll say is, We live in unusual times.
