My MP Jake Berry still supporting Boris - which is good as then hopefully he'll be gone next election as well.
Can’t wait for the film
Who’ll be boris?
Baron Harkonnen is portrayed by Stellan Skarsgård in the 2021 Denis Villeneuve film Dune, He could do quite a good job I reckon.

Riz Ahmed - BoJo's dad would especially love that
I’ve got my ‘Zombie Maggot’ filter on. I can see he’s posting, but it just scrambles the words to an incontinent line of characters. Am I missing anything?
No. That really is what he’s posting.
RNP i doubt it, hes my MP as well, he's greasier than the greased piglet in chief. He us the archtypal Tory career politician.
You don’t hear as much about them because they aren’t hogging the limelight and doing corrupt and borderline illegal things.
They need power to change things. Without that they are just staying in the background like a cog in the machine.
Even Patel is in #10
Is that to help remove him or will the potential rebel ministers be waking up in Rwanda?
I can imagine that conversation:
Are you lot going to see Boris? I 100% support him.
Yes, sorry but we want rid.
Are you going to kick him out? Out of his house? In the middle of his dinner?
Errrm, yes. Sorry.
**** yeah. I'm up for that.
Absolutely love that Johnson is refusing to budge
Every minute he stays he looks more delusional and the Tories look less fit to govern
In the end all because Johnson wanted to protect a sex abuser
!!!
I want Boris gone. Also the Conservatives. If Boris clings on I think it would be good for an anti Conservative swing come the election, but I worry for what that would mean for the country in the run up as Boris does whatever he feels best serves his own interests. Miserable.
Edit: +1 Kimbers and bruneep above. Lol at Kwasi!
Glad to see that Alastair Jack is still supporting Boris, He can join Boris on the Tory pyre as his rule goes up in flames
From a couple of pages back.
Seriously. Is he fired or can he “zombie it out”?
Once a new Conservative party leader is elected the Queen will select the new PM and at that point Mr Johnson is fired. (David Allen Green for all things constitutional).
Brace, brace, brace.
Reckon Carrie will still be in the flat if/when Boris ever makes it back there? Or will she have stripped the wallpaper, nicked the furniture and run off with Goldsmith?

How long would a replacement pm have to wait to replace the wallpaper and other interior design elements? Politically toxic!
Is Borxit done yet?
When he goes, should we all stand in the street and bang some pots and pans together? 🙂

This really needs a parody actor, who can really show how excruciating things have been.
Well I'm off to watch hamlet for a bit of sensible politics
I must admit I’d rather see him call a general election as if he goes now he’ll resign his parliamentary seat and we don’t get either the Portillo moment of him losing or the sight of him having to come back into parliament having kept he seat and lost the election.
Does anyone still have some bunting we can borrow?
Just the red bits will do.......

You're going to have to have to be more specific.
Is that Range Rover outside No 10 an Uber, taxi for Boris?

Looks like you may have called it.
I have a feeling the greased piglet won't go tonight

Normally. I think parliament might have to replace this PM before a new Conservative leader is chosen. Johnson can not be trusted to be a caretaker PM acting for the country. Raab or May as stand in PM over the summer? Or maybe Hoyle? None of them are good options for me, but they wouldn’t be the loose cannon a rejected but still in his post Johnson might be.
Priti calling for him to go now, according to various sources.
Just Bozza and Mad Nad left, holed up in a small room with a few bottles of whisky and a mountain of coke.......
Surely someone has done a 'Downfall' parody by now?
In the event of a leadership contest is it possible May might throw her hat in the ring in a "told you so" gesture?
Don't forget moggster in that depraved love triangle of nads and bojo
He’s not going to resign.
Either he’s going to call a snap GE (which is an enormous gamble but in character; if he wins they can’t sack him and if he doesn’t he’s taken the Tories down with him) or some mechanism will need to be found to remove him.
Winning a GE would be the open door to a full on col gaddafi self awarded medals act.
From Twitter….
Third PM in a row to be brought down by Boris Johnson.
It's hard to overstate how much I'm enjoying this. If he goes to the queen he might even bring down the monarchy as well!
Let that cat in and give him the job!
In case we forget the really important stuff behind what instigated this present situation, more people have come forward during the day lodging official complaints against Chris Pitcher for sexual assault

There is the roumour that the 1922 will oust him if he doesn't go quitley. But that won't happen instantly, we could be stuck with him until after summer, and also beggs the question, who the chuff out of the shallow pond of filth will be his replacement?

While this is all thoroughly entertaining and I long for Boris to be left broken and alone on the street, I still can't get over the fact that all these spineless arseholes were, only a couple of weeks ago, backing him all the way in a VOC, stating their full support, voting along party lines etc.
They're not abandoning him cos they've suddenly grown a conscience. They're deserting to save their own skin. They're still corrupt scum...
Not my words, but very funny:
At least we won’t have a capital building storm. Demographically speaking, we are more likely to get some grumpy faces at Mecca bingo.
If he calls a GE does that throw a spanner in the works for the SNPs plans for court case followed by GE?
I think technically he could ignore the 1922 committee. He'd not be leader of the Tories, but the PM is decided by the queen at least on a procedural basis (I think). So he could call a snap election for a couple of weeks, not enough time for a leadership election....

They could hold another VOC tonight if they wanted to but he’s not obliged to go. Only mechanism would be if there was a VOC in the Commons because he’s PM only as long as he has the confidence of the House.
It’ll be Wallace, Hunt or Mordaunt, ultimately.

Exactly. Almost casts JRM and Dorries in a good light.
This is amazing he's going to cling on to the very bitter end
It's all getting very trumpy

Still, I'm.gkad we settled for a strong and stable government rather than chaos with Ed Miliband...
That Zahawi promotion was well judged.
He's toast now, sureley lol!

Not one of them would get a job as the most junior bag carrier for anyone else other than that clown
They know it, I know it, you know it. I suspect they’ll be reminded of it now they all run for leader
Whoever the next leader and PM is, it won’t be a member of this present joke of a cabinet
"Surely someone has done a ‘Downfall’ parody by now?"
That movie has already been made:
"Castaway" starring Oliver Reed and Amanda Donahoe.
He’s come out and got in a car…
Ignore - might have been an old clip
Not left in the bbc news
They’re not abandoning him cos they’ve suddenly grown a conscience. They’re deserting to save their own skin. They’re still corrupt scum…
I know this, you know this and we just have to hope that Tory voters realise this as well.

Her Maj would very politely tell him to sling his hook.
This is genuinely fascinating. Very much like Trump (albit working within a totally different system) if you throw out all convention, care not one jot about honor, opinion of theose around you or broader public opinion (beyond your rabid base) - you can do a damn good job of making like a limpet.
We need this farce to move to the next step.....Johnson to continue to fail to resign but the bulk of those that have said he should to do so. Then watch him flounder around and put some ministerial hats on the most spectacular of none entities. Actually scratch that - be more Trump - how many kids has he got? Now's the time for the grand reveal - he has bred an entire cabinet just for this moment.
They’re not abandoning him cos they’ve suddenly grown a conscience. They’re deserting to save their own skin. They’re still corrupt scum…
Exactly. They are still a significant part of the problem. They are as self interested and narrow minded as the buffoon in chief. And I'm not seeing anyone who I have too much confidence in to actually do right by the country.
See that dickensien lanky streak of imbred piss is still backing him
Either he’s going to call a snap GE (which is an enormous gamble but in character; if he wins they can’t sack him and if he doesn’t he’s taken the Tories down with him)...
That may be what he's threatening to do.
Luber, maybe.
No, I hope that they go in 'dry'.
Not exactly the adjective I would choose.
It wouldnt surprise me if I woke up to find he'd sacked the whole cabinet and announced a Troika of him, Rees Moog and Dorries
I guees he's waiting for a job offer from a benefactor as Carrie wont be hanging around as soon as hes out of office
Anyone knowledgeable enough to diagnose his underlying condition? Narcissist? Sociopath? Psychopath? The man is unhinged
Still, I’m glad we settled for a strong and stable government rather than chaos with Ed Miliband…

Malignant narcissist for sure.
Hilarious irony that he was finally brought down by the tank-topped prehensile Pincher.

Assume that's a joke, but on the other side of the coin, maybe he does believe he's being bullied by self-serving ministers and the media, and that he has the will and backing of the people. So why would he step down? That's who he answers too right? The public. So a GE would be the right thing to do I guess.
Not supporting him, just mulling things over.
On yerself Boris, fight them to the hilt, jam it right up their 1922 committee!
Brandon Lewis just resigned.
Why would he step down? Because regardless of what he thinks the public might think about him, he has clearly lost the support of the vast majority of his MPs and it is impossible to govern in those circumstances. It's very simple.
And if he doesn't resign, they will vote to remove him next week. All he is doing is delaying the inevitable by a matter of days.
So a GE would be the right thing to do I guess.
He could just call a by-election if wants to be kicked out by voters.
All this tells me is that we need to completely reform how our government and voting works. One thing we definitely need is a **** off clause. This is where, I don’t know, the Queen maybe, can tell the PM to **** off by royal decree or something.
What other job in the world can you **** up completely and not just get sacked from. Leader of a western democracy is HR proof.
Can’t wait for the film
Who’ll be boris?
He’d probably play himself, the egotistical prick. My vote goes for Mr Potato Head in a wig or an actual bale of hay.
Brandon Lewis just resigned
Seems to be confusion on this.
That’s who he answers too right? The public.
Yes and no - Johnson appears on the ballot paper of a tiny fraction of the national electorate. The PM gets their power from the backing of the other MPs who also won their seats. Those MPs represent their electorates, not him, and a good number (basically all) have got the message from their local electorate that the clown is no longer that appealing. That's how it actually works, though I would take your obvious next point that in reality the personality of the national party plays a huge party in the election or otherwise of local MPs.
bye election
Deserves credit.
RM.
He’s going to have a lot more time to spend with his family(families) by the weekend? Poor sods it’s all got a bit trumpian now I heard one of his backers on R4 this afternoon wants him to stay to “make Britain great” chilling stuff looking forward to seeing him dragged out leaving finger nails in the tarmac🤞
So a GE would be the right thing to do I guess.
The tories wont call one till they've rinsed and repeated and took control of the narrative and improved their polling.
Absolutely nothing to say they have to barring a sense of when they think they'll win.
When they eventually remove him I’m hoping they’ll pin him down and brush his hair

It'll be like the end of a scooby doo episode, "I would have gotten away with it if it weren't for those pesky ministers".
Rriiiiiiiipppp
Trump in a Johnson mask.
