Rejoice, largely white and male, generally straight, often old, and invariably educated, upwardly mobile and relatively affluent progressive, identitarian and Liberal-Leftish intellectuals from English speaking rich nations! The revolution is happening in your lifetime!
True, American ones among those revolutionaries need to look – for once in their parochial lives – beyond the borders of the US to see that the British Conservative Party is choosing BoJo’s successor … from the appetising menu shown above.
Chances are the new Tory PM will be neither white nor male. (Yay!) Compare that to Labor so-called leader Sir Keir Starmer (Tssk, tssk!). Even better: there’s a good chance a woman of colour of foreign background will be the new PM. (Happiness overload!)
With any luck, one of them will suddenly come out of the closet or reveal a disability.
Britain is about to become a paradise (I imagine many Yanks will be moving there soon).

Update: 24/07/2022.
It seems the two remaining contenders for BoJo's vacant throne are Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak.
Truss is the last sister left standing. She fights for equality against the patriarchy represented by Sunak. As the late Madeline Albraight said: “There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women." All women must vote for her.
Sunak could adopt as his selling point that his household is richer than the Queen’s. By being as rich or even richer than rich whites, he’s a role model for people of colour (like those aspirational ones in Oz who watch the SBS show Small Business Secrets). He, and not Truss, is the one really fighting for equality. Call him Richy instead of Rishi.
Either way, Keir Starmer is the reactionary: against Truss he is the misogynist, against Richy he is the racist and Communist.
Now, there’s some poetic justice in that.
