Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss on the campaign trail (file photo) PA Images

Poll: Who will be the next British Prime Minister?

Liz Truss is the frontrunner ahead of tomorrow’s announcement.

SCOTLAND’S FIRST MINISTER today said that Liz Truss will be a “disaster” as prime minister if she governs how she has campaigned, but she hopes for a “constructive” relationship with her.

Truss is the frontrunner to become British prime minister tomorrow, and will take up the office on Tuesday if she beats former chancellor Rishi Sunak in the Tory leadership contest.

The results will be announced by the Conservative Party around lunchtime tomorrow and the Foreign Secretary is the favorite to success Boris Johnson.

What do you think: Who will be the next British Prime Minister?


Poll Results:

Liz Truss (9546)
Rishi Sunak (4602)

    Absolute disaster of a country where life is cheap, disease is rampant, parents maim their children and turn them into beggars in order to survive and the rivers are polluted with floating corpses and the upper classes while away their time working on their British accents.

    @Alex Falcone: you’re worse than David Hogan. You should use your opinionated big brain to say things less about the specifics of what happened instead of throw away generalisations

    @Donal Proctor:
    It is a disaster of a country, and that’s why accidents like this happen again and again and again and again….

    @Alex Falcone: Have you been Alex? At 1.25 billion people in India, 15k deaths annually makes their trains statistically a lot safer than our roads, scaling by population.

    @David Hogan: How insightful and inciting of you David to say something so crass. Wasent the first thing that popped into my head to be honest. Poor people. Hope the death toll dosent grow further. Hope they invest money and make the rail system safer. Hope the rich poor divide in India narrows.
