Imaging having a Brexiteer in charge of Brexit, what a novel idea. 

 

Funny.

He could have been PM from day one. 

What a clown.

It seems incompetence, stupidity arrogance .... the list goes on ... are the new qualifications to be chosen as a leader of a state - worldwide.

But with initials like that , BJ, how appropriate for a Tory Brexiteer.  Clearly his slogan for the PMs job will be.  No BJ in Europe

The prospect of a Brexiteer being held accountable for the mess he helped create is indeed an improvement.

Well of course Johnson was a staunch remainer who wrote a very pro remain article in the Telegraph only a couple of days before realising that he could use Brexit as a way to get rid of Cameron and open the door for him to become PM.  After all that has always been his agenda.  So an overnight U-turn put him front and centre of the Brexit camp and all the pro leave bullshit started shortly afterwards.

 

I am not going to comment on whether Johnson or any of the other candidates for the leadership challenge will be the next leader of the Conservatives.  I will wait and see who wins the chalice (poisoned or not) and then form an opinion based on the numbers.

Astute enough to claim, on numerous occasions, that £350m a week could be spent on the NHS if we left the EU. He is facing a private prosecution for these falsehoods. And just because he can occasionally throw in a bit of schoolboy Latin does not make him articulate. Quad erat demonstrandum.

Articulate?  Ask Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe about him being articulate.  It was Johnson who has made it far harder to get her released and has certainly added to her sentence.  The man is not only a buffoon but a dangerous buffoon.  So perfect for the right wing of the Conservative Party!

Norway and Iceland are not in the EU they seem to be doing OK.

A typical Brexiteer: comes with examples, but.. did not check the reality first.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Iceland

Iceland: the collapse of the banks already forgotten ? Iceland, free energy, tourism, and a 350.000 inhabitants, associated with the EU.

Norway: much free energy thanks to waterfalls, lots of oil so many jobs. see  https://www.focus-economics.com/countries/norway  and  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Norway

Also associated with the EU.

If the MPs are idiots, then the electorate must be even more idiotic for voting them in. Which neatly explains the Referendum result. 

Maybe because the British are 1.5 x or more drunk as the rest of the world… see  https://www.newsmax.com/thewire/united-kingdom-alcohol-drunk-know-when-to-say-when/2019/05/16/id/916307/  Being drunk = brain damage. Now we understand...

June 23, 2016.... The people have spoken. Let's get on with it.

yes, an overwhelming, landslide victory of 51,88 %, who voted for "leave", but not under which condition. A hard or soft or softy-soft Brexit . A mare small group of 48,11 % voted for Remain, whatever 

And a LOT of these "leavers" feel swindled. Therefore at later polls a 40% for leave. That's why these brexiteers are so in panic about a second referendum, knowing all Brits now could know the consequences, and might vote for "remain".

Bye-the-way: do you already agreed where the inter-Irish border with the EU should be ?

Of course he’s not a buffoon at all, but there’s something the MSM don’t like about him, so it must be good. When the CON Remain MPs don’t like him, that rings truer.
He’s actually very astute and articulate when not guffawing and acting about.

What is more, he has a certain record of electoral success, he did win the mayoral elections in London twice running. His most unforgivable action of course was unseating the darling of the left - Ken Livingstone!

Private prosecution because even the lefty inclined CPS wouldn’t touch it? Good luck with that one.
Schoolboy Latin from somebody that can’t even spell his own name properly.

Nazanin Zaghari is an Iranian issue.
Yes we need more right wing in the Conservative Party. No more of the leftists who couldn’t make it under their true red banner.
