Boris Johnson!

They are gathered *in different parts of the building*

I assume only the loyalists get Wine and cheese

This is great entertainment.

It’s a bit of an echo chamber in here, but I dunno about the GE thing. He’s definitely pushing it, but I still think a lot of people see him as a loveable rogue who got brexit done, navigated covid,  and can’t get on with the job because he’s embroiled in loads of stuff that hardly anyone cares about. Partygate: bad Beergate: irrelevant. And anyway, what’s the alternative? The Labour party? No chance. So who in his own party?

Am I missing anything?

nothing you haven’t seen a hundred times before.

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?

How can you be sure it’s working?

Why would he resign? It’s not I. His nature. It’s not what the bullingdon club expects. Bluff and bluster. Do a Churchill and stick it out. Judging by the general public who think he’s doing his best the.n even a GE would result in more years of his dross

I think the tories are poised to ‘take him for a walk in the moonlight’ themselves, if there’s one thing we can give them credit for, it’s that they don’t mess about when it comes to showing people the door when they fall out of favour within the party.

In politics? They ALL want power! They ALL believe their own hype. They ALL believe they are above others. Politicians don’t desire power? Crikey the world has gone silly billy …

Well, I haven’t met all politicians, but I’ve met some ministers and some back benchers, and some are definitely in it for their own glory. But some really do seem to want to make a positive difference to people’s lives and the country we live in.  You don’t hear as much about them because they aren’t hogging the limelight and doing corrupt and borderline illegal things. They exist though – most select committee types I’ve met have been in that second category.

Can’t wait for the film

Who’ll be boris?

I hope he has to be sedated and removed on a stretcher…….
……but not just yet.

The longer he stays, the better for Labour.

Plus, I’m rather enjoying this. 🙃

Resignation ticker up to 38 now.

“20,20,24 hours to go, I want Bor-is sedated”

… it’s that they don’t mess about when it comes to showing people the door when they fall out of favour within the party.

Not when the public is behind Boris. The only way to find out is GE. Do they have the footballs to take that risk?

Plus, I’m rather enjoying this. 🙃

Rolling news at the moment is the best telly I’ve watched in years. It’s like a live feed from some weird medieval court. I’m just hoping it ends with a Game of Thrones style execution

Can’t wait for the film

Who’ll be boris?

Danny Devito

I hope he has to be sedated and removed on a stretcher…….

I don’t, I hope they have to prise his fingers off the No. 10 door frame, drag him down the road and dump him in the street on the public side of the security fence.

I am also rather enjoying this.

This is great entertainment.

I’m concerned I’m enjoying this slow and lingering end of Boris, like enjoying a bullfight

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.

Can’t wait for the film

Who’ll be boris?

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.

So Kwasi Kwarteng's "final straw" was hearing that he was about to be sacked… https://t.co/x7tIdEzmQF

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?

NEW: Sources say PM is seeing Cabinet ministers one at a time rather than a being greeted by the whole delegation.

Number of them told Chief they would resign last night or today without movement.

When they did they were invited to No10 by CHH to tell the PM to his face.

When he goes, should we all stand in the street and bang some pots and pans together? 🙂

Who’ll be boris?

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…….

In the end all because Johnson wanted to protect a sex abuser

You’re going to have to have to be more specific.

Is that Range Rover outside No 10 an Uber, taxi for Boris?
