I assume then that the next election won’t be pretty for them

Pretty much every political commentator at this point is confident that they're going to be wiped out and lose worse than they ever have in history. So yeah, not pretty.

That said it's their own fault, Sunak was supposed to bring things around, but he's basically done nothing and just sat there being useless while the right wing nationalist element of his own party essentially destroy their election chances. It's bizarre watching them go at it, it's like they were sent from the future with a mission to ensure the conservative party is never politically electable ever again.

Sunak is pretty much inactive. He is playing the quiet game to try and deflect a lot of the damage done by Johnson and Truss. He isn't really getting any grief atm. He took flak from some worried Mps over the latest bi-elections and how much they lost ground. But tbf to Sunak, any Tory MP who thought they were going to do anything but that was kidding themself. Sunak will be around until the next election, mainly because they have no credible alternative. Sunak best option is to go to the polls in Autumn, but he is showing no signs of doing that. The money is on an election next Spring or Autumn. Spring is a bad time, what with coming out of NHS crisis that are inevitable over the winter period. Inflation will still be around and not many are getting pay rises to match it. The only positive on the horizon would be if Russia collapsed economically and had to pull out of Ukraine. Russia is burning its wealth fund in large amounts, but I still think they will be floating as ok till mid next year.
