-TSS- Posted July 7, 2022 Report Posted July 7, 2022 He can only blame himself. He had very good cards but he blew it. But who's going to replace him? It looks like the resigned Chancellor Rishi Sunak is the favourite. Quote

The party was elected by the people and the party is still in charge. The only people who voted for Boris were his constituency. We don't have a President.

SpankyMcFarland Posted July 7, 2022 Report Posted July 7, 2022 As one wag put it, third PM in a row to be ousted by Boris Johnson. BTW isn’t it great to see MPs, regardless of party affiliation, really having a go at the PM at a parliamentary committee meeting? You wouldn’t guess we had the same system in Canada. https://inews.co.uk/news/huw-merriman-m ... ee-1726986https://youtu.be/zopEUw7gUMg 1 Quote
-TSS- Posted July 7, 2022 Report Posted July 7, 2022 They really should some deputy-system so that in cases like this there's someone who takes over straight away. After all, it takes weeks to find out who's going to be the next PM. When a party is in opposition they have time for this kind of very lengthy leadership-elections. Not when it's the governing party. Quote

He has a 23% approval rating. The people of Uxbridge have even had enough of him. If there is a non confidence vote and an election, he will probably lose his own seat. Quote
Michael Hardner Posted July 7, 2022 Report Posted July 7, 2022 This was the populist Darling that was for the people right? It's so sad to see people suckered in by these types. 1 Quote Click to learn why Climate Change is caused by HUMANS Michael Hardner

Should’ve been case closed, but evidently not. That was within his party and it is obvious he would lose another one. If Labour introduces a non confidence motion in Parliament, it will pass and the Conservatives will be toast in the resulting election. The Conservatives have to get rid of him before that happens.

That's a gamble though. It might backfire by uniting the Conservatives. There are a lot of Tory MPs in traditional Labour seats who don't want an election now when the government is so low in the polls. Starmer has threatened to do it but I think he's bluffing. Quote

Still would like to know what the actual problems were. Besides getting a hand-job from one’s girlfriend, I mean... Quote

Besides getting a hand-job from one’s girlfriend, I mean... He has had over 50 resignations from his cabinet. Eventually they get tired of lying for him. After the latest revelation, he was told that at best he could expect around 60 votes out of over 300 in another party confidence vote. Edited July 8, 2022 by Aristides Quote
OftenWrong Posted July 8, 2022 Report Posted July 8, 2022 Yeah that’s what I thought. Nothing there. Since you people refuse to answer, I asked the mighty Google oracle and here’s what it said: (Wall Street Journal): What is the turmoil in Boris Johnson’s government about? Mr. Johnson’s premiership has been rocked by a chain of scandals in recent months after government officials were found to have held several partiesin his Downing Street headquarters while the rest of the country was under strict Covid-19 lockdowns. He apologized to Buckingham Palace after staff held parties on the night before the funeral of Prince Philip, where Queen Elizabeth had to sit alone to comply with social-distancing requirements. Most recently, Mr. Johnson had to apologize for appointing as a senior parliamentary official a man whom he knew had a history of allegedly making unwanted sexual advances. So that’s it? The Queen had to sit alone?? Awwww.... Quote
-TSS- Posted July 8, 2022 Report Posted July 8, 2022 I think last time there was this level of uprising in a PMs party was in the last moments of Thatcher's premiership but she had been there for 11 years. Johnson only three. Quote

OftenWrong Posted July 8, 2022 Report Posted July 8, 2022 Lest we all forget reality... BoJo’s job was to extract the UK from the Europeon Union (sic) via Brexit. As such, he is an enemy of globalism. He would’ve had a hell of a lot of enemies. The media attacks were never-ending, coming from an infinite well of funding. The same funding’ that’s got you people spinning your heads round and round. Quote
