Previous thread.

Sorry that was to @Rinoachicken

Wow this is just insane, hes going to be left on his own soon ....... I really thought he would have resigned by the morning but now Im sure he definately wont!

I’m developing a weird envy of his stubbornness and self belief. It’s so out of this world, it’s like an awe-inspiring Olympic performance.

God, if I only had half his chutzpah, I swear I’d have the life I dreamed of when I was 18…

Two more resignations. Never heard of either

Well if he's got Zahawi back on board....

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but it feels like the first person Boris has actually sacked?

In the recent round of political manoeuvring ? I think you might be right, Pincher resigned ?

STOP THE PRESS.

No 10 spokesman tells the truth.

+Who else?*

Petty much most of the cabinet by tmro am at this rate.

Off you fuck, Johnson

I'm looking forward to Johnson's first piece of journalism after he goes.

I wonder if he really will have a future in after dinner speaking now everyone knows he recycles the same unprepared speech time after time. The same utter contempt for his audience that he has now for, er....everyone now I think of it.

Christ! I only went to walk the dog!

Well, that's predictable. Who wants to be associated with him? It 's potential death to any future political career.

Johnson has said he will fight on. But he is a liar, so does that mean he won't fight on?

Real Scarface territory now... can he get Tommee Robinson and a thug army coked up and move on Parliament hanging Steve Bray on the way in. He must be on the stuff long rumoured with heightened paranoia/delusion.

I think I'd have after dinner sickness bug if I ever had to listen to his speeches about how he fucked up the country. Luckily I never will have to endure this.

You have to say, Sky News are doing incredibly well today, they are great on days like this!

A Ballad For Wronged Tories:

At first we were afraid, we were petrified
Kept thinkin' we could never live without you by our side
But then we spent so many nights thinking how you did us wrong
And we grew strong
And we learned how to get along...

Go on now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt us with your lies
Did you think we'd crumble
Did you think we'd lay down and die
Oh no not us, we will survive...

Hey, hey

Johnson describes Gove as a SNAKE...

ha ha. Yes. and right back at ya too.

they are all turning on each other.

I hope Priti is fired too

The sacking of Michael Gove is not going down well in the Conservative party. One former Boris Johnson ally tells me: “Sacking Gove is revenge. But Boris is now detached from reality. He is now like Putin.”

God he reminds me of my ex husband. Doesn't get what he wants and the bastard fucks everyone over...

Ra Ra Rasputin...(Boney M)

Now he's sacked Gove surely the others who've advised him to resign need to quit themselves or they'll be next for the chop from Boris?

Dorries and JRM are supporting him because they haven't a cat in hell's chance of a cabinet post under anyone else.

All day long the media have had Boris Johnson written off , but like the end of the horror movie your friends made you watch for the 'jump value , ' back he comes time and again and will end up with his arm hanging out the concrete outside number 10 with a tiny speck of expensive wallpaper in his grubby little hand.
He will never leave

Is Larry the cat ok ? I have visions of him clawing the soon to be replaced wallpaper ! Cat's know !

The PPS on Sky at the moment is grinning like this is all a game. Dangling tax cuts like that is going to get them out of trouble. "He's made mistakes" .
They are shockingly crap.
