Boris Johnson should resign

[Cinammoncake]

He's lied to the Queen and shut down parliament illegally. He's not fit to be PM and should resign now.

He and his team seem desperate to leave with No Deal, absolutely desperate, they gambled on shutting down parliament unlawfully, more or less pleading for a GE in Parliament. Why aren’t people or the media asking Why?

The media at least are well aware of the answer to that question, which is that Johnson, Mogg and their cronies are desperate for No Deal because they stand to make shitloads of money out of it.

Theresa May made similar assessments to LloydBraun's in relation to Corbyn before the last election, and thought it would be a total walkover as a result. That went well for her, didn't it?

Wow Boris Johnson compared to goebels 😂

For trying to carry out a vote that has been ridiculed, undermined and thwarted at every turn .. What a terrible tyrant! And he even offers an election to oust him from power the bastard.

Time to get out?
Please do.

If you don’t agree with us, leave.
Boris is a tyrant and anti Democratic.
I’m sure both of these positions can be reconciled; the clever corbynistas will be along to tell us how very shortly.
And if thats not a cure for insomnia I don’t know what is.

Wow, imagine not being able to tell the difference between someone making a snarky comment on an internet forum that they do not control, and a Prime Minister unlawfully shutting down our sovereign, elected parliament and today declaring his willingness to break the law of the land again in order to serve his means.

Johnson's conduct in Parliament tonight demonstrates what a thoroughly nasty little worm he is. His knee-jerk use of the word "humbug" in response to requests that he moderate inflammatory language to avoid encouraging people who make death threats should destroy his political career for ever.

Good point. Just watched the recent channel 4 tv program Toriesatwar. Crispin Odey, billionaire hedge fund banker, who shorted the pound on EU ref day said Johnson and Moggs not forgotten who their masters were.

Also no deal Brexit would allow Johnson’s govt to switch the UK to a deregulated, low tax economy. Singapore on Thames as it has been described. Big money players would love this. Who is pulling the strings?

Agree Tonnere, shocking conduct by BJ

He's as good as we are going to get. It's impossible for anyone as everyone's out to get each other. We have boris so the government needs to work together to follow what the country decided. To leave. And stop us looking like a complete joke. No prime minster will do any good without the support of the rest of the government. It's a team effort!!

Wasn't really a team effort when Boris and pals blocked the Withdrawal Agreement on three occasions though was it? On the most generous interpretation, it was a case of Brexit-supporting MPs having ideological differences on how Brexit should happen, or perhaps it was an act of sabotage fueled by self-interest.

I voted Remain but if we're to leave, on a sensible basis, so be it. However, we need to leave in a lawful manner that preserves our democracy. If Boris and the ERG had allowed May's Agreement to pass, fine. If, after a general election, there's a majority who are able to agree on some sort of Brexit, fine, but it needs to be delivered by Parliament and in accordance with the law.

The only thing more dangerous than No Deal is tearing down the pillars of our democracy to get it.

You can say what you like about Boris. One thing is for sure, the guy has balls and will stand his ground! Gets my respect

Ok - he is a vomit inducing Bawbag!

That said as fact, he is a classic establishment figure, shored up by financial privilege, secure in his investments abroad (in Europe!) just like Rees Mogg. He sole aim is to make a name for himself as Brexit Man - he is scared shitless he will be known as the PM with the shortest term in office, found to be a proven liar and had his 'amiable clown' act exposed for what it is - more clown than amiable.

His future is secure on TV chat shows - the people who are having their livelihoods screwed over by this arse will not be so lucky.

Why doesn’t the opposition table a motion of no confidence at this stage?

@Really222 because nobody trusts him not to fiddle with the date of the election (which a PM can technically do) so that we No Deal my d election campaign.
Call it after no Deal has been taken off the table by the PM and there would be Opposition support for an election.

Well, Boris ain’t going anywhere while Corbyn insists on paralyzing parliament and the country by refusing to give us an election - no doubt because he’s utterly terrified of having to step up himself. Pathetic behaviour.

Why doesn’t the opposition table a motion of no confidence at this stage?

Because the last thing Corbyn wants is to be PM now - then he’d be the one tasked with sorting out this mess. Of course, if Labour had a half decent leader they’d go to the polls, win with a comfortable majority and revoke A50. But no, we’re stuck with Brexiteer Corbyn who can’t wait to see us come out of the EU - even if he won’t admit it.

Corbyn paralysing parliament?

What about your lying PM?

Ffs.

The thing that makes me sadder is some people are lapping up this shoddy performance. It is utterly astonishing. How can so many people want to be out at any cost, out when it might result in deaths, out when their children and grandchildren are likely to be poorer. If Brexit must happen, surely it is in the interests of both sides to make sure it happens while causing the least amount of damage? Why has this issue become more and more extreme. I watched the debate in full and Johnson was a disgrace. He just didn’t answer many of the moderate and reasoned questions. It was a jingoistic, hate-filled performance.

Do people not understand why Corbyn does not want an election now? It has been explained so many times.

Can I ask how likely it would be for the lib dems to win a general election given the shower of shite that is the current Tory and Labour Party?

beardedmum they must understand but are choosing to wilfully ignore that and use DM /Sun baity soundbites.

What's more annoying is that they don't credit those of us capable of critical thought with any intelligence to peel back the lies.

Agree

Corbyn paralysing parliament?

To state the bleeding obvious, parliament is in total deadlock and Boris doesn’t have a working majority. The only way to attempt to break through that is to have a general election. Otherwise we will be locked in stalemate for the next three years.

It’s laughable that after all the mistakes that Boris has made, Corbyn still won’t call a vote of no confidence in him. In any other government the opposition would have seized the opportunity for an election with both hands.
