He hasn't done anything terrible in 44 days (as he's been on holiday) and people have short memories

Short but not that short. Choosing Boris for round two would be the best thing for Labour. Allow the Tories to have their death throes.
Desperately sad news for supporters of the Medway narcissist; not throwing his hat in again.
They’ve sloped that photo — to make Sunak look taller, possibly?

yeh while they're having their death throes how many people will needlessly really die to pay for them?

Chisti is actually shorter than Sunak, so I guess the Sunak campaign instigated the photo op.

That's always the case though.

I'd assume he's offering him his old job back. The one he resigned from cause he thought Boris was a cunt.

Or he wants to ensure Sunak won't stand against him.

Has there ever been a reason given as to why Mogg himself has never ran for the top job?

Johnson's main policy will be massive spending cuts for some, miniature British flags for others

I hope they do go for Johnson. Current polling is showing there's about 15-20% will vote Tory no matter what, even if the current PM is personally shitting on them as they vote. There's probably about 15-20% would give Johnson the personal vote, because he's a cad and a bounder and a bit of a larf, isn't he?
These aren't two completely discrete sets of people, there's a fair overlap - so nothing over 30%, no chance. And there won't be many wavering voters beyond that - everyone else, literally everyone else will see the very obvious and total contempt that the Tories hold the electorate in. Like we're supposed to forget the awful covid response, the corrupt PPE procurement, the Arcuri shagging for access to government, the partying during lockdown, the lying to parliament over it, the FPN, the protecting his mate from sexual assault allegation, the constant lying about everything, the narcissism, the hiding in a fridge, all the reasons why 3 months ago (3 months FFS) he was belatedly found unfit for office and tossed on the scrapheap.
He's a joke, their whole party is a joke and all they're doing is giving a graphic demonstration to all those who haven't realised it yet. By the time it gets to the election and becomes obvious that Johnson's image as an election winner is way off, they'll haemorrhage more support in a way that makes today's polling look like a golden era.
I hope Johnson dies at the exact moment he realises that for his whole life his self-image has been a delusion; that he's held in universal contempt, and will be forgotten.

I suspect the reason is that all MPs know he's a complete and utter fraud, nobody sits next to him at lunch he's just tolerated as a sort of stinky mascot which appeals to their most hard of thinking voters.

Given his personality, he wouldn't see a second chance as some kind of getting-away-with-it-by-the-skin-of-his-teeth thing, but as a vindication of the corruption, lying, lawbreaking and general mayhem he so enthusiastically indulged in first time around. I think he would double down on all of that shit.
The good news is that, after a second round of Johnson, I would have serious doubts as to whether the Tory party could continue to exist, functionally at least. It's already riven and largely discredited, but I think that a Johnson premiership would hammer the final nails into its coffin. I hope so, anyway.

TBF, if I were PM, I couldn't dance either, and I'm non-aligned.
I also wouldn't be able to play the piano

Cos he likes to think of himself as the dark arts guy but he knows what we all know, that he’s useless, greedy shite.

I think the problems came when we started letting people who couldn't dance be PM.
Bitter division sounds like a pretty good result to me.
