In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
One of them was in tears

I'm thinking Johnson and Gove knew they'd be called up on lie after lie of their campaign if Boris got in to number 10, so instead they entered the no-hoper of the two of them in to the leadership race so that they could still maintain their position of rebellious people's champions - "well if we'd have got into power we would have fulfilled our promises, and we did try".
Netflix are working on it now.
Those would be the last picks in a PE football game, never mind running the country.Guardian said:
Joke of a party.
Labour really should be taking advantage of this but alas...

Does this change Boris' endgame? He wanted to pick the pieces up post-negotiation with Cameron anyway, this effectively will serve the same purpose and I imagine he will not lose too much face amongst his core support?
He doesn't care. He's played his role, so he'll just go back to writing his gadfly journalism for £250000 a year.
Can we have a trial by combat?
Exactly .. Opposition should be tearing them to shreds but they are busy fecking around at such a crucial time.
He might now get a few years to serve in the cabinet and try and come across as a serious politician capable of being PM rather than his current image. You felt this was handed to him on a plate, though, and he still didn't take it.
Think a lot of the Tory party have now started feeling the same way about Gove as the rest of the country do.
Boris should have just run for it and if he didn't get in.. he'd still be able to say, if only you picked me I would have etc etc. Like this he has just committed career suicide.
If the North's was lead by Cobryn then the North would show up in Robert's rebellion unarmed. Surely Corbyn wouldn't considering arming his men at the trident.
I started to hate him when he started going on about playing rugby. Who fecking cares.
Please can anyone remind me on who had won the referendum?
Gotta feel for him, poor sod.
Hollywood/BBC script writers.
Theresa and Andrea in a bikini and the rest in a pair of budgie-smugglers all doing battle in pool of mud - sounds good to me.
Am I right with my assumption that either way the only winner will be most likely Farage and Ukip?
If the next PM doesn't pull the trigger to leave the EU, Farage will have a field day destroying the spineless tories and if May/Gove do indeed leave the EU and everything ends up worse he'll complain that the UK was shit at negotiating with the EU under their lead and claim that he'd have done a better job.
Either way he'll be sharpening his knives

When Thatcher fell, Heseltine was the chief opponent, and he was charismatic with lots of support. However, it was the boring nobody, John Major, who prevailed, even after Douglas Hurd also threw his hat in the ring. I don't think we've seen who the next PM is gonna be yet.
That boring nobody was a decent PM in relative terms.
But what we need now is arguably a filibuster like May for a few years - just please do not put her in charge for any longer.
Real opportunity for Labour but so difficult for them to get rid of Corbyn and unite behind someone. David Miliband perhaps?

Nobody. The whole of the UK lost.

Hezza's heart problems counted against him iirc. Major was the chancellor, not exactly a 'nobody' within the party!
Not an MP.
Wasn't he sacked from that career for lying? So a career with News Corp it is then.
Corbyn won't ever consider arming his men - he is a pacifist!
Gove still could?
i think May seems like the most likly, she seems the most uniting..... I can't se Gove getting the job he is hated by too many, both within the party and the public.
can't say any of them fill me with much hope or confidence, just makes you think is this really the best the country has? but at least Borris has dropped out

Appropriately, that photo looks like a promo pic for an obscure new BBC2 comedy.
Don't think any of the Brexit lot thought Cameron would actually resign. Boris knew he had a tough job on his hand and has taken the cowards way out.
Ironic
What you on about?
Somewhere Armando Ianucci is watching and thinking 'I can't compete with this'.
Like a crap U.S. version of Peep Show.
With Matt Lucas as Boris Johnson
I hope its someone who really dislikes the Irish and pushes NI over the edge.
If the Conservatives are a joke of a party, what does that make Labour, who are already a laughing stock.
