@achillestoes she was at Oxford and you’re right, she’s in no way an idiot.

Does Rory Stewart have friends in the cabinet?

He's bright, and articulate and had enough principles to leave when they voted Boris in.

I'd like to see him back on the books.

Frankly I'd like Rory to be PM after listening to The Rest Is Politics. Thoroughly decent.

Get in.
All of them next please!

Out the frying pan into the fire.

Show quote history

Wake up! This is the fucking fire.

Johnson is a bad man. He repeatedly cheated on his wife and family, thinks it’s perfectly acceptable to lie, doesn’t think rules apply to him, is self serving etc etc etc. I think your bar is set low OP if you don’t think he’s a bad man.

theotherfossilsister · 05/07/2022 19:00

Is anyone else finding this quite exciting? I really want Boris to go.

Zone2NorthLondon · 05/07/2022 19:00

BJ will not step down,I anticipate he’ll call and probably win a snap election

Provenceinthesummer · 05/07/2022 18:58

I honestly think there is more chance of Labour losing their leader in the next 24 hours tbh

Zone2NorthLondon · 05/07/2022 18:58

Good riddance to him and Rushi. Both are complicit enablers who ignore,over look and minimise the absolute disaster the govt is under BJ
presumably they hope to distance themselves and come back or try to be Party leader
I anticipate another scandal must be imminent , certainly there are rumours of SuperInjunctions
alleged affairs
alleged pregnancy
alleged intimacy with BJ and Carrie being interrupted in flagrante delicto

Holy shit I wonder who is next, this is huge. Potentially more to come as this was so synchronised timing wise.

Pleased people in such positions aren't blindly supporting BJ but then also scared they'll replaced by people who do...

And realistically if BJ goes, who are we going to get in his place?

I mean I swing from anyone is better to fuck, Rees-Mogg exists.

If his hat isn’t in the ring I’m going to his house to get it and throw it in.

Yes! Javid as PM might possibly make me cast my first-ever vote for the Tories.

mrshoho · 05/07/2022 18:57

Obviously written together, too. A good start. I can’t see Johnson resigning unless, well, I can’t. He’ll have have to be sacked. Can they do that?

he can't be sacked as they have to wait a year before another vote of confidence. He must resign.

MarshaBradyo · 05/07/2022 18:56

Who will be Chancellor?

it’s a hugely influential position right now - given how much all our lives are impacted

fromdownwest · 05/07/2022 18:56

These two are just distancing BJBJ from his impending fall off the throne. They can then step in as leadership challengers.

vivariumvivariumsvivaria · 05/07/2022 18:55

wasn't it Sajid who was saying the NHS needed to resurrect using "woman" in patient leaflets?

That's a bit tricky, we need that.

ThickCutSteakChips · 05/07/2022 18:55

I honestly think that if the Tories got rid of Boris and rebranded before the next election, they would fairly easily win it. Michael Gove would be a disaster surely, everyone thinks he is a prize knob.

Unless Labour seriously pull their finger out of their arsehole in the next few months they are screwed.

Provenceinthesummer · 05/07/2022 18:55

Erm - Johnson isn’t going anywhere this is not a thunderbolt moment, this was totally expected, and planned for. The only surprise is that it took them so long.

Of course he isn’t going to resign. Why would he? It is going to take much more than that!

AmaryIlis · 05/07/2022 18:54

Might he try to bring Hancock back in? Though appointing and adulterer in the current climate might not be the best look.

Nadine Dorries replacing Sajid Javid would be excellent for women and girls.

She’s an anti abortion campaigner isn’t she? That isn’t good for women and girls.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 05/07/2022 18:15

It's taken them a fucking long time to find their backbones...

Their wallets were in the way.

Callipygion · 05/07/2022 18:52

I think I’ve wandered into the twilight zone - Boris Johnson not bad? Dozy Dorries taking over? I hope you’re all being sarcastic.

LondonJax · 05/07/2022 18:50

Nadine Dorres can't find her way into the Commons without following Boris - she's an absolute numpty!

Sunak's letter

That’s….terrifying. What the fuck does he know that we don’t? I can’t think of anything I know about government that’s too good to be true. Unbelievable, yes. Too good to be true, no.

Obviously written together, too. A good start. I can’t see Johnson resigning unless, well, I can’t. He’ll have have to be sacked. Can they do that?

Also, Johnson is misogyny personified and couldn’t run a bath. You need some insight into your competence before you can admit it’s lacking, and some integrity in you heart before you care if impacts anyone else. And he has neither. He’s Zaphod Beeblebrox without the style. Who next. Oh, fuck. Not JRM? Can’t someone expose him to sunlight and….poof! Sunak will have the NHS jointed up and auctioned off to subsidiaries of his wife’s companies before he sits down to tea on his first day in number ten. Javid, I don’t know. Best have a quick GE, so we can blame the public again.

Rats deserting the sinking ship. Hope the captain stays on board to see it to the bottom.
