i think Johnson is finished. In two months weve had moving the goalposts to defend mps on the take - followed by a damaging u turn, this was swiftly followed by the peppa pig debacle and now his blatant lying over lockdown Christmas parties. Its now just a matter when, not if. He's one more fuck up from being chucked out by his own mps - and those fuck ups are coming on a regular basis. Id be surprised if hes still there by Easter. Could be much sooner if evidence comes out that blows his Christmas party denials to pieces.
Of course his own party - and especially those seeking to replace him - know all this too, so may choose to put him out his (and our) misery sooner rather than later. Who knows what incriminating photos Gove has on his phone?
There's also the possibility most - or all - of the leadership contenders - were at various of these parties themselves - so we may even see a circular firing squad where they take each other out with pics, tweets and videos of Christmas shenanigans. At this rate they'll end up with putting Teressa may back in charge as she's the only one who never got invited.
