Song for the day:
He's still here?
How many nights I am I going to have to go to bed drunk, celebrating his unavoidable resignation?
How did I miss that Theresa Villiers was MP for Barnet !
FINALLY!
Did i mention i'm 71 today btw? Elderly as fuck. Grey. Stiff. Brittle. Smug. sanctimonious. Humourless. Pished. The bojo show keeps giving dont it.
It's not much of a revenge though. Johnson looks like a dick, as per. Gove can't help what he looks like, but gets his choice of jobs in the next government.Johnson has got his revenge at Gove for the 2016 stab in the back at least
Saltysweet or savoury?
This is like on Facebook when your aunt catches your uncle looking at dating sites.
i think sackings might outnumber resignations today, but they should still count as balloons.okay it's 6 am over there, c'mon now time to get going, i want more resignations.
She might find the Wagatha Christie phone.Out of a canon into the Thames. Or the North sea.
The Duke of York is a member of the House of lords, so if Johnson gives him a position in the Cabinet, I'm sure the Queen will reciprocate appropriately.“one Johnson supporter predicted the Queen would refuse to allow the dissolution of parliament by 'finding a way of being busy until we've sorted this mess out ourselves''
Good morning
I know he won't but I hope he limps on for months. It'll be funny as fuck watching the vermin all glum faced knowing they can't get rid of the overgrown school boy they put in charge.
I remember hearing Portillo quoting someone on this week at around the time of the Brexit vote. It said something like 'Europe is the wolf that's coming down the road to destroy the Conservative party.' It took a while but old wolfy has arrived and is busy doing their thing
That's not the way it worked after they dumped Thatcher. All they need is a dull but halfway competent John Majoresque figure to give the job to.I don't think it will literally destroy the Conservative party, but I really hope it will fuck them up good and proper.
Whenever Johnson does finally go, there is also the prospect of a potentially bitter and acrimonious leadership contest to choose his successor.
I won't claim it was exactly this that I hoped for when I voted Leave, but it was certainly something along these lines. Just wish it had happened a few years earlier.
Unlikely when the backbenchers have offered him the prospect of one final evasion of responsibility by “dipping their hands in blood” and allowing the psychopath to self-mythologise the treachery that brought the people’s choice down. It’ll go on until Tuesday.Still hoping for a Friday resignation. It'd do the struggling pub trade a world of good.
Who do you suggest?That's not the way it worked after they dumped Thatcher. All they need is a dull but halfway competent John Majoresque figure to give the job to.
Helen Whateley off too according to Today. Where’s spitfire ?
