Do people think Boris Johnson is a leader whose word they can trust?

Never.

mamapants · 27/11/2019 20:12

How does your poll work?

Notonthestairs · 27/11/2019 20:12

No. But I don't think the polls show that people think he is trustworthy- I think they reveal that nobody expects bad shit (long term illness, disabilities or financial hardship) to happen to them.

53rdWay · 27/11/2019 20:13

No. Lies as easy as breathing. Has lost multiple jobs for lying. I don’t know how anyone could look at his track record and think “there goes a trustworthy man!”

recrudescence · 27/11/2019 20:13

In a field known for being economical with the truth, Johnson has found something he truly excels in.

CareOfPunts · 27/11/2019 20:14

Of course he’s not. But people don’t care. It’s very odd.

God no hes a lieing bastard

ButDoYouAvocado · 27/11/2019 20:15

No...

derxa · 27/11/2019 20:15

I don't trust him but I'm afraid he makes me laugh. He's so brazen it's comical. He's the naughty boy in class that the teacher secretly likes viz Bart Simpson and Edna Krabapple. Not a great recommendation.
He sends DH into an apoplectic rage.
The country is fucked.

Jellykat · 27/11/2019 20:17

About as far as i could throw him!.. he's a lying weasel, saying whatever he thinks people want to hear.

Shoppingwithmother · 27/11/2019 20:18

Well what do you think? How can we vote if YABU or not if you haven’t said.

I would trust Boris Johnson 1000000 times more than I would trust Jeremy Corbyn.

Which way do I vote for that?

dynami · 27/11/2019 20:19

Haha haha

No.

Womenwotlunch · 27/11/2019 20:21

No

orangeteal · 27/11/2019 20:21

Surely even Tory voters don't actually trust him?

BertrandRussell · 27/11/2019 20:22

“ He's the naughty boy in class that the teacher secretly likes viz Bart Simpson and Edna Krabapple.“

What, the one who wastes the teacher’s time and screws it up for screws it up for everyone else? That one?

Bunnyfuller · 27/11/2019 20:23

I don’t know how to vote! It asked if YABU? I don’t know if you are BU. Boris of course cannot be trusted.

mclover · 27/11/2019 20:25

writes NO on the side of a bus

sue51 · 27/11/2019 20:26

No. Possibly the most self serving PM in my lifetime.

Pumpkinpie1 · 27/11/2019 20:27

I hadn’t realised the conservatives had a manifesto I thought it was just a slogan

Now that's misleading. Everyone knows that statements written on the side of buses actually mean something different to what they say. Wink

Mamasaurus82 · 27/11/2019 20:29

No!

Katinski · 27/11/2019 20:31

And it's no from me too.

Mum2jenny · 27/11/2019 20:32

I’d trust him as much as I’d trust any politician. All the parties are telling huge porkies and most of their financial ideas will fail at the first hurdle.
Still unsure of how I’ll vote on the 12 Dec.

Silvergreen · 27/11/2019 20:34

No. And I say that as a well-off person.

usedup · 27/11/2019 20:36

This is pointless. We all know how almost everybody here is going to vote. Although I don’t particularly trust Johnson, I do think it would be political suicide for him to not get Brexit past the next hurdle (note I didn’t say get it done), or to fuck with the NHS to anywhere near the extent most are fearing.
