PM Boris Johnson - monster thread for a monster twat

Being new here, I can't tell - is this countdown tongue in cheek, like "oh shit look how little time we have left" or genuinely celebratory, as in "fucking yes, look how little time we have left!"

This board is taking some getting my head around haha.
this thread is a mess. there were a number of boris johnson threads which were merged, one of which was my '120 days of sod 'im: the brief and disastrous administration of boris johnson'. it's my belief that he will be out of the way well before christmas. i said 120 days, of which but 84 remain.

I think there's an element of sarcasm to it, combined with gallows humour.

That's the board anyway. As for the countdown, who knows?
 
I've just been looking into this pretty massive tax cut that Johnson has promised for higher earners. Earnings over £46,350 to £150k are currently taxed at 40%. He is proposing to move the banding up from £46,350 up to £80k. I reckon (though my Friday maths may be wrong) that means best part of £7k a year extra straight into the sky rocket for anyone earning £80k or above. That's massive and going to cost the country crazy amounts of money. Its strange how the country can suddenly afford things like this when they are the beneficiary.

Pertaining to nothing but the annual salary for a UK MP is £79,468.
