Maybe it was a broke graduate struggling to pay off their student debt whilst working a zero hour contract?

Funny how internet hardmen shrink away when they get called out on twatter. No surrender and all that. Paper fucking tigers.

I can't think of anyone who is described by Ralph Waldo Emersons saying as much as Johnson:

"The louder he talked of his honour, the faster we counted our spoons".

 

[not-bono-ever]

The bluster about aggressive language reminds me of Johnson’s delightful chat with guppy about getting heavies involved in dealings. What a cowardly wretch this man is.

 

[Dogsauce]

He’s dutifully playing a role, pretending to be passionate and resolute about something he doesn’t give a fuck about. it’s all been focus grouped.

Even Amber Rudd is getting in on the act, denouncing BoJo's language as 'legitimising aggression'.

Derived from Boswell's 1768 An Account of Corsica, apparently.



As you were with counting those fpoons

Post Johnson positioning; that's all she's ever up to.

It was mentioned during the debate on Wednesday but I'd seen no other references to it.

It's kinda like the public school boy version of the yoots who can't keep their hands out of their chuckies when they're talking to their pals. Maybe he's looking for his balls?

Pocket billiards innit.

BREAKING NEWS on Sky...

The Greater London Authority has referred Johnson to the Independent Office for Police Conduct, concerning this business over the American 'business woman', on the basis that as Mayor he was in charge of the Met Police.

It's going so well for him, isn't it?

 

[cupid_stunt]

It's online now...

Boris Johnson has been referred to a police watchdog in connection with allegations a businesswoman received favourable treatment when he was mayor of London.

The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) has been asked to assess whether the prime minister should be investigated for the criminal offence of misconduct in public office.
---
The matter has been referred to the IOPC, which handles complaints against police forces in England and Wales, because Mr Johnson held a post equivalent to a police and crime commissioner.

Sit on the back burner for being politically sensitive & then there will not be enough evidence to act. Well hopefully not.

I think I may have found the loophole that the Prime Minister is planning to use to avoid the requirement in the European Union (Withdrawal) (No.2) Act 2019 to ask for an extension in the case of no deal.

I believe they are going to attempt to use an Order of Council to dissolve the post of Prime Minister, a recent innovation, leaving Boris Johnson 1st Lord of the Treasury, and the 2019 Act unenforceable as it only references the Prime Minister, a position which will be non-existent. After all, apparently the post of PM was only first used officially by Disraeli in 1885 and has little statutory standing. It seems far fetched but then they went for perogation so anything is possible if they think it is potentially legal.

Couldn’t he just stand down as Prime Minister and give himself a different title? After all, it appears that the position of Prime Minister has limited statutory basis?

The Institution of Prime Minister - History of government is interesting reading...

In legal terms 'fairly'

Hmmm. Maybe they'll bring back rotten boroughs.

Brexit Party MEP, Rupert Lowe has wrote a letter to António Tajani (EU Chairman of the Constitutional Affairs Committee) claiming the recent Supreme Court ruling could make former PM Theresa May’s Brexit extension unlawful/null and void so that the UK effectively left the EU on April 12th.

Brilliant. How does he get to that conclusion?

Just distractions from their cumming plan to dissolve the title of Prime Minister and make the Withdrawal Act 2019 unoperable.

In constitutional terms it is like yesterday when people are referring to 1611 and 1689 in Supreme Court judgements.
