Dead duck PM.

Peregrina · 06/06/2022 21:11

The greased piglet survives again.

Didn't they talk about the 'payroll' vote of 150 people?

Notonthestairs · 06/06/2022 21:13

Labour will be happy with that result. Drip, drip, drip of more scandals to come no doubt, by-elections and Privileges Committee.

Remove the “payroll” vote - and look at the free vote from backbenchers. Almost 75% of all Tory MPs not dependent on his patronage voted against him. This is the end for Boris Johnson. The only question is how long the agony is prolonged.

After the outrage in our house, the room went deathly silent as we tried to take in how many people in our house of commons couldn't give two fucks for the people they are supposed to represent.
The absolute knob that the BBC are interviewing- Simon Hart- can fuck off, then fuck off some more.
Not an honourable bone between them.

I think they should be referred to as dishonourable for the foreseeable.

Scripted Message from the sycophant MPs seems to "we should now draw a line under it and move on".

They. Don't. Get. To. Decide. When. We. Choose. To. Move. On. Angry

Boris Johnson's "victory" in today's vote of confidence was only by 59:41 per cent

that is lower in percentage terms than:

John Major in 1995
Margaret Thatcher in 1990
Theresa May in 2018

Peregrina · 06/06/2022 21:24

Will he have a reshuffle? He won't be offering Jesse Norman a post,that is for sure.

DuncinToffee · 06/06/2022 21:28

FFS, how low can you go

Reshuffle? - deck chairs & Titanic spring to mind.

Yeah previous ones haven't exactly made a difference.

Dorries for chancellor maybe?

Notonthestairs · 06/06/2022 21:36

I think Dorries would make a fine AG 😉 (possibly no worse than the incumbent).

carefullycourageous · 06/06/2022 21:42

Johnson saying he thinks it is a good result Grin Grin Grin

L1ttledrummergirl · 06/06/2022 21:43

Oh my fucking God. He needs to shut up and go. He is coming across as an arrogant, pig shit thick, pompous idiot.
Still trying to use soundbites and saying it's what the people want.

What this person wants is for him to go already.
Fucking clueless.
