    Not sure they will.

    People don’t forget. They have mugged people off truly and not handling the increased cost of living well at all.

    You can only judge those in charge and it’s been a mess.

    Boris claims he’s staying and the longer he stays the more he ruins that party and the chance to rebuild. I think that’s one of the reasons that the resignations are coming in numbers that they know that they won’t win the next general election even if it was tomorrow or in 2 years time.

    The conservatives normally run a operation like Chelsea did by replacing the leader with the popular person but with so many quitting you have to ask who takes overs. Boris and the party got a battering today by Keith. Who can really stand by a leader that promoted a person who is meant to have done awful things to people! Really!

    Honestly, people need to have some respect for themselves .Admit they got it wrong and admit that Boris needs to GO!

    Because he is a gigantic narcissist, whose two goals in life were to become Prime Minister and stay there long enough to create some kind of glowing legacy as a great leader, like his hero Winston Churchill.

    His monstrous ego can't cope with the idea that he'll be thrown out on his arse after three years and remembered in posterity as the biggest liar and most incompetent PM in British political history.

    He has blustered through life on the back of inherited privilege and old school tie contacts. Whenever exposed as a fraud or liar his tried and tested tactic is to double down on the lies and kick the can down the road in the belief that people will forget and forgive. Somehow (mostly due to Brexit) those tactics have got him all the way to number 10. But they won't stop him being booted out of office by the Tories now that he's become an electoral liability, however much he might hope they will. Whether he goes now, next week, or (hopefully) in the autumn, he's dead meat.

    Always good to see Douglas Murray get under someone's skin, especially an absolute sewer rat like Alistair Campbell. How Campbell has the gall to question others morality after what he and Blair did is quite sickening. To watch him spit his dummy out was delicious.

    Andy Burnham, but I don’t think that’s likely. But, I could probably go for Angela Rayner. Been dealt a tough hand in life, and worked her way up, I like that. I don’t think she’d be afraid to tell some Tory idiot to go fcuk themselves, either.

    I have honestly never been more completely embarrassed and ashamed of the people that run our country. May had her faults but my issues with her were largely ideological, and she always at least carried herself with a semblance of seriousness the PM's office deserved. This lot are a fecking disgrace and shame on anybody that continues to support them.

    Its the only possible explanation :joy:

    Forget Partygate, letting Dorries on national TV after she's emptied the sherry cabinet should be a sacking offence.

    If they've got better pictures of actual parties they need to just get them out there. I don't understand the drip feeding at all. Pictures of actual parties in the flat would have done for Johnson on day one so I really don't understand what is going on.

    I'd prefer them to just come out with the real scandal because at the moment I feel like I'm being gaslit into believing that any event which has alcohol - even those on zoom - is a "party" when in my mind it's not at all. Just cut to the chase!!

    Johnson doesn't have a decent bone in his body, nor do his piece of shit family. Everything that's wrong with the world encompassed in one fat blonde carcass.

    Apparently Durham police are looking again at the decision not to investigate Starmer for his beer at a 'workplace'. Labour party have confirmed Raynor was there as well after denying it previously. You would think they would get their story and fact straight if calling for Tories to resign.

    What is 'real crime' Tone? Someone nicking a bottle of whiskey from Asda? Or people in high office being able to flout pretty much any law they want at any time that suits them? Cos police moving beggers or the like is pretty low on my priority list these days.

    Yes. Massively.

    I judge those in charge against the alternatives. Not against some mythical being.

    I undertake that Boris made the rules. I also understand that his party pushed in the directionI preferred (and which would have lessened the awful stories of people being separated from loved ones) whereas the alternative pushed in the opposite direction. Why I would reward someone who was ever further away from the direction I wanted and points out all the hardships of the rules they pushed for?

    I’ve had my problems with this government but it’s a better alternative than the opposition who don’t even know who a woman is.

    The Johnson out at this election will only get you another Terrible labour council who have run down our city of Bradford.

    The Labour Party of today under Starmer pretend to be holier than thou but scratch the service and the hypocrisy of this party comes to the service,look at Starmer for months went on about party gate but when his own hypocrisy happened he wanted to talk about other things.

    The day Johnson went to India for trade deals the Labour Party cancelled the debate on child hood cancer and turned it a debate on Johnson for the TV news that’s the alternative.

    In fact , at the end of the day do whatever you want, sod the consequences. The Tories don't care about you, Labour don't either, both more interested as parties as to what the other one is doing rather than solve problems. Gutless spineless cowards the lot of them.
