He's pulling a fast one if you ask me.  I hope he doesn't get away with it.

He won’t l, the 1922 committee will sort him out.

 

He’s toxic, they can’t leave him squatting in No 10.

Not quiet, he’s a member of the ruling class, he’s allowed to be ‘eccentric’.

 

If he were working class he’s be an unkempt, lying little scrote.

Stand by for 'stitch up', 'corrupt police', 'a remainer plot'.

it's gunna be a bit like Australia and the revolving door of PM's

The problem is two fold .....

Young folks don't understand history and don't care ...  they do knee jerk reactions as what happened in Auss.

And a term of 3 years is too short to get any government stability ... imo

johnson repeatedly lied to the country, Parliament and close colleagues, eroding all trust in anything he said.
 

His removal was not a knee jerk reaction but the result of months of crisis, scandal and arrogant narcissistic misrule.
 

Good riddance to bad rubbish. 

Reported post and response to it, removed.

There are no opinion polls showing that high a number, as far as I'm aware.

 

I did post a link to a poll showing 53% in favour of re-joining, however.

Just one quote from the article I linked:

"While additional trade with other counties could offset some of the decline in trade with the EU, none of the agreements concluded to date are of a sufficient scale to have a material impact on our forecast," the OBR stated.

Loiner, where are you? ????

That will not happen in the lifetime of this parliament nor most likely the next three.  Whilst most political parties have stated they are not in favour of re-joining the SNP of course are. But what is conveniently ignored by them is that should they wish to re-join it will be on the conditions of entry as they stand now, not the conditions as the UK had previously enjoyed. Now giving up the pound for the Euro ? well they are still fighting tooth and nail to use miles and miles per hour so I wouldn't hold out much hope of the nation agreeing to that.

Good riddance, Klaus Schwab puppet.

Well perhaps.

 

It does however seem, well, remarkable, that two essentially similar matters resulted in such different responses.

 

Still, the Blessed Keir can at least procede with his declared plan of calling a vote of no confidence in the government now, can't he?

 

That will allow the electorate to decide...

That isn't correct .

Miles and MPH have always been used interchangeably with kilometres  .

Recently the laws forcing people to use metric were dropped , but no one wants to go back to Imperial and thus metric is still used .

The Police statement said ‘No case to answer’.

 

The cases were not similar.

 

’Beergate’ turned out to be nothing but rightwing frothing, fabricated outrage.

Well yes, they can have a beer and get away with it, use four letter words in the house, and get away with it, they even have Dianne Abbott talking nonsense in the House and elsewhere and gets away with it.

But thankfully, at the polling stations Labour will not get away with it, just look and listen to their benches....????

Politicians having alcohol during a meetings during Covid restrictions .

The cases are nearly identical .

This is yet another case where you display your biasedness .

Had Keir and Starmer been fined and Boris not fined , you would have made accusations of lies and corruption   and Borises mates from Eton getting him let off the charges .

  No one has been "frothing"

Oh look Dianne Abbot popped out of her free accommodation again.
