To have an anonymous poll - would you personally like to see Boris return to being PM?

[WellWaitForItToPass]

As title really. Just wondering if, on an anonymous basis, the results here would reflect what I’m hearing around me in real life.

Would you personally like to see Boris return to being PM?

YABU - yes
YANBU - no

(There’s no bias in the choice of which is unreasonable - I just had to pick one!)

What have the Etonians ever done for us? 🤣

DH (a staunch Labour supporter) wants Johnson back in so that when we do finally get a general election, the Tories will be well and truly f*cked. I'd rather there was an uprising now so that nobody from the current party of self-serving clowns spends any more time in office.

@travellinglighter
I missed when Priti Patel was PM.
But no, because Kier Starmer is happy with the erasure of women and I can't vote for that.

Also I don't know anyone in RL who cares about Partygate

This depends entirely what circles you move in. Pretty much everyone I know was disgusted by it and wanted him to go.

Your not getting an election so not an option why do people keep saying this
Its not like the opposition is that great at the moment, they all need to up their game

Boris is now 3/1 as opposed to evens yesterday so 3 times less likely than yesterday to be PM again.
I wonder if he's struggling to get the 100 votes or is it the polling that shows he would lose a members vote against either Sunak or Mordaunt?

It’s not happening - he’s lost almost everyone who used to work for him, save for the pantomime characters and Ben Wallace. I don’t think he’ll run in the end.

In a word no. Some muppet on the breakfast programme suggested that he had been "forgiven and forgotten". By who exactly? The arrogance of him and his party has not been forgotten by the bulk of the sentient public.

As for "liking" him, the man behaves like a dolt, albeit an intelligent one, an act which hides the real person and is all about lining the pockets of his cronies and himself.

Beside Liz he looks wonderful which wouldnt be difficult really.

@DorchaAndLouis same here but its because most on here would vote labour etc regardless, they would never vote the torys even if they had the best policies , candidate etc
Same as many tories never labour etc etc
Too many people tied to a party and not looking at what that party can do here and now ,

@WatchoRulo why so rude
I know many people all sorts of walks of life who don't care that much as they think they were all at it and many breaking rules themselves
This is work colleagues , neighbours , friends etc from many walks of life
They may not agree with the parties and even be a bit pissed off with them but they don't state that as the biggest factor

Won’t read the whole thread but I assume the usual Johnson apologists have turned up.

I… want him to win. Because it’s now clear that getting annihilated in a general election is the only way he’ll fuck off forever. Once you one of them from such a big majority you really, truly have nothing left.

Isn’t this a mainly left wing website though

The tories are polling on sub 20% and Johnson’s personal ratings remain abysmal.

Try another excuse.

Yeah your 12 year old definitely understands all the nuances of the current political landscape and has made an educated judgment

Yes, I think he's pulled out the main issue, you'd have to be a special kind of ignorant to think Boris Johnson is in anyway the right candidate for the job. But then this is the party who were told what would happen if they voted Truss, and proceeded to be shocked when it happened

@Whattaweapon Yes, because resigning in disgrace is a sign that it went so well the last time

Well I must have been asleep at the wheel because I don't remember him "resigning in disgrace".

Too many people tied to a party and not looking at what that party can do here and now

Weve been trapped in this ‘here and now’ Tory psychodrama for 12 years. Spare us the faux above-the-fray “it’s just tribal” routine.

NO. Please, No.

@User17956743 Isn’t this a mainly left wing website though

Yup, so far left they've crossed the International Date Line twice 🙄

I know a few who are genuinely horrified. More who are faux horrified for the sake of propriety/their friends or family who are CEV etc but it wouldn’t influence them one bit on voting and lots who think lockdown was absolutely hooey and cost a bomb and that everyone should have just cracked on with life.

Johnson is more appealing than Sunak or Mordaunt to those people but they just don’t tell you that because you might disapprove of or judge them 🤷🏼‍♀️

Agreed, unfortunately, as I understand it, that is an impossibility constitutionally, as only the incumbent Government can call an election, and you sure as hell know this shower won't do so until the end of their current term, whilst they have a majority of 80 in the Commons. I'm not even sure mass rioting and a general strike could result in a general election, again, given that huge Tory majority. I'd love to be proven wrong.

They’re not going to have a snap election because they know they’d lose. Everyone asking for one must know this.

I would like him to come back. Be good to have a bit of eye candy on our screens again 😂

I don’t want any of the Tories! GE now!

I’ve put yes for the same reasons as @IntentionalError I don’t want Tories at all, I want general elections but between BJ and Rishi I prefer BJ because he supports Ukraine.

No. Don't have voting.
