July 7, 20223 yr How long do we think it'll take him to get his own cable or radio show?Β I'd say 5 minutes but I think this completely unedifying saga is actually really damaging his brand.Β One of the best things about this entire thing is watching him go down gracelessly, embarrassingly and desperately struggling beyond what should have been the end βΒ he doesn't deserve anything less.Β I wouldn't have wanted anything less and with his ego. HE WILL DIE A FAILURE. No Churchill for him, he's way more like a Chamberlain... right down to the length in office.
July 7, 20223 yr Is it possible to die of Schadenfreude? Asking for a friendΒ Β Β He should just quickly sign a section 30 order for sturgeon on his way out and let the next PM deal with the consequences. Like a wee timebomb for those he thinks are snakes
July 7, 20223 yr A lot of the chatter is whether he should be forced out now (complete humiliation and the right thing to do for the country) or in the Autumn (where he will do more damage). Once you realise something is toxic you shouldn't keep having the poison for a second more. Hope the Tories go for the latter - they are brutal so reckon they might.
July 7, 20223 yr Seems many MP's want him to go immediately, like today and not wait until his successor is chosen.Β A sad day for me. Am very very sad but can't help how I feel. :( Edited July 7, 20223 yr by cider man
July 7, 20223 yr Well looks like Johnson has finally seen sense. I canβt believe it took him this long. What an idiot!
July 7, 20223 yr I'm glad a good night's sleep helped him see sense.Β He's resigning but wants to stay on to Autumn conference. So at least 2 months of the lying, country destroying, sex-offender enabling, thieving twat even if most of it is when Parliament is in recess.Β To be honest, that doesn't sound quite as terrifying as the idea of Dominic Raab being a caretaker PM. But yeah, who the hell do we get next after all this?
July 7, 20223 yr To be honest, that doesn't sound quite as terrifying as the idea of Dominic Raab being a caretaker PM. But yeah, who the hell do we get next after all this?Β So far those who have expressed interest include Suella Braverman and Steve Baker Β I reckon Sunak or Hunt is still most likely.
July 7, 20223 yr A sad day for me. Am very very sad but can't help how I feel.Β @1327570483383062528Β who the hell do we get next after all this?Β I'm sure β whoever it is β that they'll be absolutely fantastic.
July 7, 20223 yr Well worth the shitshow, though never leave anyone bitter and twisted able to cause havoc in post. Soon as you speak out about goings-on in local government you are marched out of the building on the spot, never to return. Then paid off afterwards to keep shtum. Β No sympathy for anyone who supported the man. We all knew he was a self-serving liar with no morals. His colleagues all knew he was a self-serving liar with no morals but accepted that to get one over on voters who were fooled into thinking someone who never combs their hair and is rude to people with a smile on his face was in any way capable of carrying out his promises and lies. Everybody that knows Johnson knows he is lazy and useless and a habitual liar with no regard for consequences, and he got used by the ruthless cronies for their own ends-justifies-the-means.Β Not that it matters, Tories are like the hydra, cut off one head and another equally ugly head pops up. And if anyone is stupid enough to think that a new leader will bring about a sudden miraculous moral sea-change, think again. They just might not be such blatantly obvious liars and egomaniacs.Β they all went along with Johnson when they thought he was a winner. So they are either just as bad, or useless judges of character. (hint: I know people who had Johnson as a Boss. He's a "not big on details, not keen on reading up" flim flam man. Always was. Always will be)
July 7, 20223 yr So far those who have expressed interest include Suella Braverman and Steve Baker Β I reckon Sunak or Hunt is still most likely.Β My money's either on Mordaunt or Wallace.Β Whichever way you look at it, it's so incredibly bleak. :arrr:
July 7, 20223 yr What is Ben Wallace like?Is he still a nasty Tory but better than the likes of completely evil/insance/delusional as Truss, Braverman, Baker, Raab, Patel etc? Β Seems to have jumped to the top of the contenders recently - mainly due to Ukraine but also because I feel that a ceratin section of the electorate really would go for a man who has been a military - like when Dan Jarvis was hero for a while in Labour circles.
July 7, 20223 yr Shame. I was enjoying this episode of Brexshit :( Β The bad thing is, they will use him as a scapegoat, and get the medis to bosot the Tories again, pretending a new leader = BRAND NEW PARTY, WOOOOO!!, and that theyw eren't all in it together. Empty Suit Starmer will have trouble vs Sunak. I wanted an election and dor Blojo to go doqn in disgrace, destroying his majority!Β Remember when Common Sense said Blojo WOULD EASILY have 3 or more terms, and gleefully said that Blojo just recently ssid he eanted three terms?! :rofl:Β Ta ta Blojo! He should NEVER EVER bave been PM, and it spesks a lot to how sick our politics are right now that he got there, and that he got it over the greatest PM we never had, one mr Jeremy Corbyn, the best of the best, a fighter for the people and of the people.
July 7, 20223 yr Yes, I think the Tories would go out of the way not to appoint a cartoon character PM again like Johnson so the likes of Liz Truss, Priti Patel, Jacob Rees Mogg etc are out. But a SERIOUS minded evil Tory like Penny Mordaunt or Ben Wallace say could do serious damage to Starmer with the press on their side because it's not like he's got a massive policy difference with the Tories now (to put it mildly) and he's dull and uninspiring as f***.
July 7, 20223 yr Lol it looks like Johnson is actually appointing new ministers. He's not going anywhere in the short term despite most of the MPs wanting him out now. Imagine he actually wrongly briefed everyone earlier and is deciding to fight on.
July 7, 20223 yr I canβt believe there are still spineless cretins left to appoint to the cabinet office tbh
July 7, 20223 yr More shortest serving cabinet minister records to be broken *.*Β Main house VONC or 1922 committee looks like it'll put paid to another 3 months of him.
July 7, 20223 yr hot off the press, Bozo's resig letter:Β "It is with a heavy heart that I must resign as Prime Minsister, thanks you for my huge vote that I personally achieved in 2019 as you all placed your trust in me that these Tory bast*rds just stabbed me in the back over a few minor issues and misdemeanors. I will try to cling on as long as I humanly can, and make sure the backstabber who follows me has as hard a job as possible. My record is impeccable and I have achieved everything I promised, I'm so wonderful and right but you can't bleat, I mean, beat the herd of sheep all lining up to backstab me cos of a few parties.Β I promise to give the new leader as much support as I can. That might not be easy while I'm creaming up writing my memoirs and boosting my ego and coffers, but I'll do my best. Or at least as well as I did keeping control on my staff not breaking the law. Make no mistake while I am in office I will do my best for the country and continue my winning ways. I love you all, cheerio. Except those of you that didnt vote for me and just backstabbed me like I backstabbed ol Theresa. Anyone got a comb...?"
