Personally I don't think the Tories can come together such is the division and the amount of factions that exist within it .
The subject of Brexit is still ripping them apart , before 2016 it was whether they should leave or not that dividing them , today is now we've left they can't come together and agree what that looks like for the country .
The casualty list of Brexit is extraordinary , Cameron , May , Johnson didn't really get Brexit done at all and now Truss .
The right of the Tory Party hate Sunak who they see as the man who turned Johnson over plus he's seen as a high tax chancellor .
Johnson clearly has his enemies with many threatening to walk away should he be reinstated as PM , presumably to become Independents .
Mourdant may have half a chance of some unification but I don't see her passing the 100 threshold needed .
That's without mentioning what's going on in the world outside , inflation at 10.1% and not coming down any time soon , a recession if we aren't already in one , fuel bills , increase in mortgage payments , potential stagnant house prices .
It's quite a list to get on top of in two years with a divided party .
The enthusiasm to unite no matter what doesn't exist with Starmer as Labour leader as it did with Corbyn who would have thrown everything they've achieved ( if you can call it that ) on a bonfire .
There a saying in UK politics , the Tories aren't always in office but they are always in power and whilst they don't much care for the opposition benches at least under a Starmer government they can live with it .
I think the electorate are ready for change too , this happens as it did in 1997 and 2010 .
The political parties all have a shelf life .
