PM Boris Johnson - monster thread for a monster twat

[steveseagull]

This could be the end game

 

[Sue]

Can someone "bollocks"

I guess anything can be a verb in Woke Britannia

Have you never got pissed and talked shit? Next you'll be telling me you've never got pissed, sexually assaulted some young men and helped bring down a PM.

First resignation of the morning

"Upmost". Wrong'un

Done 1 and 3, never 2

Tell us more about 3...

Poll tax, was at 31.3.90 and 20.10.90, plus in my local aptu

What's interesting is the number of formerly loyal MPs that are coming against him now, surely Johnson must be doing the maths, knowing only 32 MPs need to change their vote, when they next get one, and he's a goner.

My gut feeling has always been he would cling on until forced out, but I am not so sure now, this is escalating so fast, he may well decide to save some face by resigning rather than losing an embarrassing vote.

I think at a certain point (and one that's rapidly approaching) that becomes a bit of an academic distinction doesn't it? He will be basically forced out even if that formally comes as a resignation.

This is the man who has embarrassed himself so often and to a far greater degree than any other politician of this embarrassing generation of politicians, who has lied to the Queen, his party, Parliament, allied countries, everyone in this country, people who've employed him. Without ever batting an eyelid. Saving some face is not a motivating factor for him, it's saving his job that he's worried about. I don't think he'll get a column in the telegraph again, he's that toxic. But if he can wait till something turns up he might save his job. And no one ever kept a job by resigning.

 

[steveseagull]

I was a bit concerned that things would settle down overnight but he is losing support from his most loyal now

 

[spitfire]

He has lost 30p Lee/Nine Bob Knob lol

If even this pig ignorant loudmouth has come out against him then surely he must see it.

However I think Pickmans has his character correct.

But unless the 1922 committee change the rules he can't be challenged till next year. And frankly there's time enough for another existential crisis to come along before their meeting.

So when is he going to prorogue Parliament and declare a state of emergency?

Don't give him ideas!

Yes, this. And the fact that, as someone who is almost certainly quite a long way along the narcissistic spectrum, his hubris and belief that "normal rules don't apply to me" means that he will simply filter out anything that says going now would be a good thing. I think he'll fight to the bitter end, and spend the rest of whatever time he has left on the planet telling everyone how wrong they were to get rid of him.

If I were him, I’d stay. I mean it’s embarrassing either way this point. Might as well go out fighting. Screaming or whatever. Maintain the delusion at all costs.

The men in grey suits may be deployed...

 

[ice-is-forming]

My 95 yr old dad, and staunch life long labour member has just facetimed me from London almost dizzy with glee that the PM looks like he's on the way out

 

[cupid_stunt]

Javid is going to make a statement about his resignation, after PMQs, that should be entertaining.

Timing in these matters is everything and he's doing Johnson a great favour by giving his statement after rather than before

I doubt he had any choice in the timing, there's half an hour of questions on Wales before PMQs.

 

[billy_bob]

I'm bored now. No one's resigned for ages

Politico's Eleni Courea saying John Glen's about to go. Treasury Secretary, apparently.

Is it me or is Zahawi a 2D cardboard cutout

It doesn't look like you, but I don't know what you look like




boom tish

Stop the steal

Wonder what the shortest amount of time served as chancellor is?

Anyone who has watched the great escape will be familiar with the way earth from the tunnels was ditched by the pows, from bags concealed in their trousers. As you can see, zahawi's bulging lower trouser legs indicate he is already digging a tunnel should escape be required.
