Boris Johnson!

The nightmare scenario is that Starmer gets fined by Durham police early next week and resigns along with Rayner.

Johnson calls GE in desperation. Tories Tory and enough go along with GE against leaderless Labour party.

Johnson gets back in an the whole circus goes round again

Could be better than that. Imagine if sks gets a fine but not rayner. That would be great

Tories Tory and enough go along with GE against leaderless Labour party.

Would that mean Johnson fighting a Labour Party with Miliband as a stand in leader?

I vote for chaos with Ed Miliband.

Danny Kruger resigns after Gove being fired.

Edit – Beaten to it!

The rest of the world must think we are absolutely **** mental

Trust me, they are looking at this and brexit and just laughing at us.

The UK govenment has collapsed, what we need is an emergency interim cross-party govenernment. I belive there are mechanisms for this in genuine times of constitutional crisis.

The clownfall is amazing.
“Gullis has written a letter with the one crayon he hasn’t eaten”
You have to imagine mogg and mad nad as goebbels and goring in the background too

That Clownfall video is great!

(Usually those videos are a bit stale, but I lol’d)

Nadine resplendent in her lovely blue summer frock. Could be worse people to be holed up with.

Anyone knowledgeable enough to diagnose his underlying condition? Narcissist? Sociopath? Psychopath? The man is unhinged

I believe the technical term is ‘totally ****ing hatstand!’

I know that when the leader of the country has gone completely mental you shouldn’t laugh, but…

This is brilliant, isn’t it? 😂

Looks like Doris has settled in for an evening of the new Netflix & chill: Twitter & gin.

As a self-described "author" did you not learn the difference between singular and plural at school? Several things are not "a priority."
Might I suggest you consider Sesame Street rather than Downing Street?

Chapeau!!

I’m now wondering if this just a dead cat to cover up the Lebedev ‘private’ meetings 😂😂😂

Gove’s been fired!

Yep, been giving his marching powder, sorry, orders

You think Boris is giving away any of his nose candy?

I would have thought that if Nads had heard Boris might be falling on his sword tonight she might have went round to see if she could fall on it too.

Johnson calls GE in desperation.

Believe me if Starmer gets fined he will be desperately looking for an excuse not to resign, Johnson calling a snap election would be the perfect excuse.

Although Johnson won’t be calling a snap election as I don’t doubt that the Queen would be advise not to dissolve parliament until the PM’s position was established. The PM remains PM even after parliament has been dissolved. The Tories could still remove Johnson as leader even if parliament is dissolved.

If there was a general election Johnson would be quite likely to lose his seat.

I think the greased pigglet is dead no matter what happens. so it’s almost a moot point.

The Question is, is it better he’s ousted from the inside? Or should we have a GE? that’s a far more complex conundrum.

If there was a general election Johnson would be quite likely to lose his seat.

Now maybe, But the longer he holds on and looks like the plucky underdog…

As a self-described “author”…

Beautiful. DrMrsPJM and I are following you after that.

The number ten insiders keep blathering on about him sticking around to grow the economy. The bit that is missing is how he will do that.
He’s had nearly three years and has so far demonstrated chuff all ability to do it, let alone during the self inflicted festering wound we’ve currently got caused by brexit

To my mind, it’s clearly an abuse of the Royal Prerogative if Boris calls a GE now, and it further highlights what a bad idea repealing the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act was.

A GE doesn’t serve the national interest in any way. Boris is just desperate to hold onto power for his own sake and will cause sheer chaos to do so.

Thank you.

Did he just say “a vote of no competence”?

Watching GB News for a different vibe. They’ve got his dad Stanley on who swears vehemently that there’s no way Boris will resign…

They’ve got his dad Stanley on who swears vehemently that there’s no way Boris will resign…

Well, he’s right… he won’t… Conservative MPs need to move him on, and fast.

Catching up after work – anyone drawing comparisons between Boris and Trump in their delusional inability to admit the game’s up?

Simon Hart MP ^^ doesn’t even give a reason for his resignation! Isn’t it usual to think of a reason for resigning?

I guess he is assuming that no reason is necessary as everyone else is doing it and he doesn’t want to miss the opportunity of a ministerial post under the next leader.

The number ten insiders keep blathering on about him sticking around to grow the economy. The bit that is missing is how he will do that.

Join the EU?

The difference between a democracy and a strongman dictatorship is that in the latter the men in grey suits would have discussed Boris’s resignation via the medium of small arms.

So the question arises, is it easier to change an unwanted leader in a democracy or a dictatorship. Discuss.

Please note this is an intellectual discussion and I am not advocating the use of force to remove PMs who have overstayed their welcome.

Boris is trying to have his “Churchill” moment…. when actually as per the clownfall piss take its actually a Hitler moment.

This makes the Death of Stalin look like a documentary…
