Did you vote Tory? Did you hand BJ 'a colossal mandate'?

Do you feel you did?

Now. An aside. I think anyone who voted Leave but then didn't vote Tory is a charlatan. You wanted this, own this, support this.

If you either didn't vote, or voted other, shame on you. Where is your loyalty? Certainty in your conviction?

Yes, yes, we all know where this lead.

But your PM is citing you, the 14m, as being his mandate.

How do you feel about that?

No quite the contrary. Could never vote for a political party which thought BJ was a suitable leader. No to Brexit too I’m afraid.

Boris does not have a 14 million majority mandate.
The Tories have.

He has a weaselly 7000 majority in Uxbridge, that's all.

Yes I did and I think for brexit, Ukraine and Covid he got the job done better than anyone else who was available would have, however I’m dismayed at his lack of moral fibre.

Can you elucidate what he did for those things?

Is Brexit 'done' or do we now have the lowest-bar Russia growth rate in Europe?

Ukraine? Hopping on a plane every time there's a domestic scandal to bury?

Covid? One of the highest death rates in the world, and locking down at least 7-10 days too late; no PPE and what there was procured from mates and sub par. Where did that money go?🤔

Sorry, not seeing it.

Did I fuck. To all of the above.

I didn't vote Tory. However, if I had - or if the party I had voted for was in power and the leader was trying this line - I'd still be appalled at the creeping presidentialism, the arrogant brushing away of our democratic systems. We vote for our MPs not for our Prime Ministers. This isn't America. He needs to get over himself. Either go, or admit he just doesn't want to.
