Err........Yes they do, again and again, they start off being voted for, and then once in power remove all the legal safeguards necessary for a working democracy, and take over control of the media, etc,  Hitler, Mussolini, Putin, Trump, Bolsonaro, Orban, and if the reptilian Cummings gets his way then Johnson soon as well. 

 

The number of Dictators who started saying they were going to get rid of corruption and then became a pillar of corruption themselves is a standing joke. 

 

Drain the swamp anyone?

If what you say is true then Trump will be elected as POTUS again this year (highly unlikely looking at the polls). What measures has he taken to guarantee success in November? 

Also what measures has Johnson taken to guarantee re-election? 

 

I'm interested to see how these measures compare to the 'Night of the Long Knives' etc.

Chaos and a car crash: Tories begin to fear Boris Johnson has lost his vim 
Missteps, U-turns and fears for the PM’s health leave senior party members openly muttering he may have to go

 

At prime minister’s questions this week, Boris Johnson appeared to be fired up. He scored a point against Keir Starmer, needling the Labour leader about whether he would say schools were safe to return to, and claiming Starmer had been silenced by the teaching unions.

Several MPs on his own side remarked how pleased they were to see him back to what Geoffrey Clifton-Brown, of the 1922 executive committee, called “such robust form”.But it was a rare and fleeting victory in a troubled fortnight, marked by U-turns and missteps. And when he met members of the 1922 executive immediately after PMQs, they delivered a stark warning about the risks of walling himself off from the rest of his party.

Such are the rising concerns, not only over the chaos of U-turns but also the prime minister’s health, that some senior Tories are going so far as to wonder openly whether Johnson will stay the course until 2024.

Brexit less and less popular in UK...

London (CNN) - Four years on from the UK's Brexit vote, a majority of British voters would now opt to remain inside the European Union, says new research.

 

According to the European Social Survey (ESS), a pan-European poll carried out every two years, 56.8% of respondents in the UK indicated that they would vote to remain inside the bloc, an increase from 49.9% the last time the survey was published in 2018. //

Remainers clutching at made up numbers in more dodgy polls. We have already left and are sailing through the transition period very nicely. Barnier is failing miserably at the EU tricks trying to keep us shackled with another BRINO.

Why don't CNN, Reuters or TVF publish any of the current negotiation updates?
