Because if he clings on until the next GE, he'll be completely unelectable and we'll be rid of the Tories.

I'm hoping he digs his heels in just like he always has, even though by rights he should be fucking off with his tail between his legs.

I hope he calls a general election in a back me or sack me move.

Cinnabun18 · 05/07/2022 18:59

I like you thinking @LonelyPlanetGirI . Somehow I doubt he will hang around that long and what damage will he manage to do in that time BUT I do agree that peoples memories are short so the closest this goes on the GE potentially the better in one sense.

LaLoose · 05/07/2022 18:59

yes I agree. I want him to feel the full misery of another 2 years of this while absorbing the economy tanking and the continuing Brexit clusterf&@k.

i then want the whole lot of the filthy Tory scum out for decades.

Who else is there to vote for?

Lentil63 · 05/07/2022 19:01

He will probably dig in his heels but he’s a dead man walking.

Nat6999 · 05/07/2022 19:04

He is toast

Noooo, I work in elections and the work and cost is unimaginable!

Are you seriously this lacking in imagination? My dog would be a better bet.

BlackTourmaline · 05/07/2022 19:08

Yanbu!

WanderlyWagonInWales · 05/07/2022 19:08

YANBU for wanting the Tories to f*k off … But the sooner that floppy-haired fcknugget gets out of number 10, then the happier I’ll be!

WanderlyWagonInWales · 05/07/2022 19:09

Oh nuts!!! Forgot about the bold thingy - sorry everyone 🙈

This reminds me of something my DH always shouts at action movies: ‘Confirm the kill’! You don’t walk away when they are wounded as they will always get back up. Second shot to the head and make sure they are dead.

Right now the Tory’s are seriously wounded but the job is not done. They have set this country up for next level economic Armageddon. In a year or so we’ll be looking back at the number of food banks we have today and calling these the good old days. They need to stay and own it so the red wallers and others see who is responsible and ensure they are gone for at least a generation.

gamerchick · 05/07/2022 19:13

I agree OP. I want the Tories unelectable for a long time.

VladmirsPoutine · 05/07/2022 19:15

I don't think so tbh. I think Boris will be forced to go but the country at large is wedded to toryism. Remember when the idea of broadband being a national right was floated and people thought that an absolutely absurd idea? Or the idea of magic money trees and so forth. Thing is the Brits in my view are wedded to misery i.e. no-one should have anything nice if I can't either.

ComDummings · 05/07/2022 19:19

I see your point but think of the damage he could do before another GE

You are completely forgiven for bold fail purely for the phrase ‘floppy haired fucknugget’.

lightisnotwhite · 05/07/2022 19:23

I couldn’t care less if the Conservatives are unelectable.
What I do want is a party that can do things long term, looks after the environment and that includes people that actually look after it for peanuts and doesn’t expand the inequality gap between rich and poor ( and justifies it with - it’s not a race to the bottom).

Pumperthepumper · 05/07/2022 19:25

I think they already are unelectable. I want him humiliated.

Tirednurse1 · 05/07/2022 19:25

Sadly I think the majority of England would vote in an apple if it wore a blue rosette

I live in hope of the end of the Tories.

Iwantmyoldnameback · 05/07/2022 19:25

Needs to go now before he died anymore damage.

Iwantmyoldnameback · 05/07/2022 19:26

Does not died

@Crikeyblimey - takes a bow - why thank you!
I do think that it describes him perfectly though.

I cannot stand him - makes my skin crawl!

MorrisZapp · 05/07/2022 19:28

You're not a Scottish nationalist are you by any chance? 😂😂

They're desperate for Big Dog to stay as long as possible, for maximum hate votes. They'll be gutted if someone else gets in before indyref2.

I thought that was satire… god I hope it was!
