Scott Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Boris Johnson has said he will find it "very difficult" to vote for Rishi Sunak's new Brexit deal for Northern Ireland. The former prime minister said the deal was "not about the UK taking back control". It is the first time he has commented since Mr Sunak unveiled the Windsor agreement on Monday. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-64823710 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Chomper Higgot Posted March 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2023 He certainly will if the ‘Party-gate’ inquiry results in him being ejected from Parliament. The bigger issue though is the tepid response from Johnson and the ERG. Further evidence of the post Brexit infection point having been passed. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayC Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 (Perhaps?) the beginning of a story with a happy ending. The vote happens soon. Sunak imposes a 3-line whip. Johnson defies it. Sunak removes the Conservative whip from Johnson. Johnson is not selected to stand by the Tories at the next election. Johnson returns to his previous job as the butt of the jokes on HIGNFY. We all live happily ever after. THE END. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only downside to his demise is the fact that the fat, lazy, ignorant b*****d will still make millions from destroying so many life chances and damaging the UK's economy for decades. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Johnson could ask permission to be accused from attending the vote on the grounds that he would suffer a life-threatening bout of shame? But no one would believe it since he's notoriously shameless. Edited March 4, 2023 by placeholder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterphuket Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I get more and more the impression that Boris can't take his loss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thingamabob Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Boris will likely abstain. I doubt he will feature much in politics unless or until Labour win the next general election. If that happens, as seems likely, expect him re-emerge shortly thereafter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what SHOULD happen but the grass roots of the tories are the ones who select/deselect and they are huge fans of Boris. Sunak only has big support among the MPs, with the obvious exception of the ReformUK wing of the party (Rees-Smug, the idiot Dorries, Truss, Boris and the other nutters) who shout louder than the rest - as empty vessels usually do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
