Ugh.

Lilybetsey · 23/07/2019 12:14

I never ever thought the day would come when I would pray for JH to be prime minister ...

Wavyheaded · 23/07/2019 12:14

Did I mishear or did Boris actually just say that the Conservatives know how to look after the poor better than anyone else?! Really?

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 23/07/2019 12:14

He is popular amongst voters in the South but gets less popular as you go further north and Scotland.

He could actually win a GE against Corbyn.

I bet Google’s current most searched phrase is “how to emigrate”

ChicCroissant · 23/07/2019 12:15

Fuck!

As a family living on the breadline, I am terrified and I rarely use that word. Normally I am the very British, stoic, stiff upper lip type person.

But this is so fucked

HollowTalk · 23/07/2019 12:15

You could never have predicted 3 years ago that he'd be PM. He was a national disgrace.

MooFeatures · 23/07/2019 12:15

Shit the bed.

All of the swear words.

Cherrypi · 23/07/2019 12:16

What was that dude bit of the speech? The state of things.

Outsomnia · 23/07/2019 12:16

But but...... he is not PM yet.

There may be more resignations and defections that may bring the Tories into minority Gov territory. Instant GE, well in September. Wouldn't that be delicious to see.

Hold on to your hats, and your sanity!

SinkGirl · 23/07/2019 12:17

Every time I think I can’t be any more ashamed of or disappointed in this country, I’m mistaken. This is just horrifying.

GimmieTheCoffeeAndNooneDies · 23/07/2019 12:17

I switched off after he started waving his arms around and shouting 'dude'.

He really is a thundercunt

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 23/07/2019 12:17

This can't have come as surprising news.

Conkeee · 23/07/2019 12:17

I voted for him so I’m pleased

ScreamingValenta · 23/07/2019 12:18

No surprise but aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhh! Sad

TheRedBarrows · 23/07/2019 12:18

Absolute representation of the shit this country is in.

From top to bottom, left to right.

Labour, Tories and the pathetic LibDems.
Just LOOK at Jo Swinson's voting record.

But it could be that it's like alcoholism and this is the rock bottom from which we will recover.

But I have been thinking that for 3 years.

MaMaMaMySharona · 23/07/2019 12:18

@Conkeee would you be willing to explain your reasons for doing so? Just so that I can hear a positive view of our new PM?

Fibbke · 23/07/2019 12:18

He could actually win a GE against Corbyn

well, duh.

SinkGirl · 23/07/2019 12:19

You could never have predicted 3 years ago that he'd be PM. He was a national disgrace.

Actually last week I saw a post I made on Facebook 3 years ago saying that we were going to end up with BJ as PM surrounded by sycophants and a far right cabinet...

I was partly joking. But here we are.

YoThePussy · 23/07/2019 12:19

No surprise there!

TheFairyCaravan · 23/07/2019 12:19

I could cry.

How could anyone think he's fit to be PM? It's completely beyond me.

SinkGirl · 23/07/2019 12:20

How Conkeee? This man has made it clear that he has no focus other than his ow self-interest, and has been an embarrassment in international relations. How could you trust this man to run our country?
