What is this problem the Tories have with just ditching the fat twat? They're saying it would be difficult to select an alternative. That's some comment on their current crop of MPs: finding somebody who is an acceptable replacement for the huge mound of excrement that squats in Downing Street is beyond them?

 

That's the whole problem with an idiot being a leader - he appoints people with less intellect than himself to do his bidding, which turns their gratitude to blind loyalty ensuring no challenge will arise from their ranks. The only critics, thus far, are from the more 'liberal' back benchers, who can be dismissed by both Johnson and the media as disaffected, Cameron type remainers. Such people can also be presented to the public as being lesser intellects - 'too fucking dumb to get into THIS cabinet?' - and their discontent as mere griping.

 

Perhaps such cunning and politicking doesn't substantiate my defining Johnson as an idiot. Yet only an idiot could endanger an eighty seat majority by such callous disregard for people's personal tragedies and hardships while breaking the the very laws he designed to control those very tragedies and hardships. Fucking idiot!      

In short. He's a callous, self important cunt? 
Got it.

Johnson's laziness and lack of attention to detail are the key strengths some MP's see in him.

 

They can get away with far more than ever before, push through more repugnant laws than ever before and enrich themselves, friends and donors with the greatest of ease due the the fat narcissistic cunts complete lack of aptitude or ability for the role.

 

Noses well and truly in the troff and these are the days of plenty for a select few, with some pushing through dangerous law and legislation whilst everybody else focuses on the circus.

Plenty of his MP's in-particular cabinet know they are fucked if he isn't in the job. He knows where the bodies are hidden and he's that much of a self entitled twat that he wouldn't hesitate to sink anyone to save his own skin.

He does seem to have some sort of bizarre hold over people ,even after everything that has happened. 

The fact that he got nearly 30%of the vote in the locals is truly mind-blowing

Got it. 

Born that way. I'm just asking why people accept it?

 

Of course, we have a nation that contains a lot of callous, self important and thick cunts. Maybe that's an answer.

He wasn't standing in the local elections, it must be pointed out.

Sure, but oddly enough, a lot of people vote on local issues in local elections.

Surely that depends on your perspective?

When you hear people getting interviewed they mostly describe themselves as a lab/tory/liberal voter

Yes, but on the other hand, you get a lot of people who vote one way locally and another nationally, which is how the Lib Dems managed to run Liverpool City Council for more than a decade.

 

Obviously sometimes national issues will come to the fore and people will switch their vote regardless of how satisfied they are with your local performance, as various members of my family found out during the coalition years. Then you have to explain to the poor lambs when they ring you up to get their pavement fixed or entries cleared that you're not their councillor any more, so they'd better contact the person they actually voted for (and good luck with that).

Yeah true

I would have thought partygate was that big an issue however that people would have voiced  their disapproval in the locals  as these are  often waved away as protest vote anyway?

Fucking idiot!      

He has surrounded himself with a cabinet of complete mongs who should be near high profile public office roles. As much as the Thatcher government was despised, and quite rightly, in the event of the witch going, there were, for all intents and purposes politicians with some degree of gravitas whose names would be in the conversation.  We dont have that now. We have the likes of Dorries, Raab, Shapps and Kwartang who make Chris Grayling look like Steven fucking Hawking.

 

The more moderate Tories (well moderate in comparison to the far right crowd now, but still remembering they are Tories) are now shunted to the back benches or out of the party altogether.  We also have to remember each sitting Tory in office now had to pledge allegiance to Brexshit on the terms we ended up getting, so they will always do the worse to save their own faces.

 

So other than those with delusions of grandeur, (Truss, Hunt, Im looking at you), I cant think of anyone who would put themselves forward in a potential contest. People like Rory Stewart have been touted but he would have to obviously stand as a candidate in a forthcoming bi-election and then get elected. If shit hits the fan enough, would Johnson try and block his progress as he would be seen as a credible threat ? I really dont know. I wouldnt surprise me.

 

Once we have got to this point, in the event of a new leader, it is about what they are inheriting.  An economically fucked country after COVID, outside of the biggest trading block on its doorstep, with the cost of living crisis, food banks, poverty and the infrastructure of the country falling to bits. Norn Iron and Scotland issues. Its not difficult to see why no one wants the job. It has the prospects of taking over a certain blue team across the city in a round ball sport. Or when your boss turns to you at work with an 'opportunity' for you.

 

Its a fucking awful situation. And it is all us plebs who lose out. The Tories may well go full term on calling an election, as we are about half way in, so at the very least we can count it down. If there is a leadership change, I always think an election should happen within 6 months because its a Prime Minister that nobody voted for. The system is broken to shit. The last season of UK 2022 is really not enjoyable and hasnt been since jumping the shark in 2016.  Or perhaps we are just suffering this apocalypse before we have a eureka moment in history.

 

Fuck knows.

People thought brexit would be the thing that destroys the tories Jesus its made them invinsible.

Just seen that’s a fake, this is the actual front page.

[Colonel Bumcunt]

Uncanny how Tory voters are loving the socialist solutions to rising costs.

It's almost as if most of the voters don't really know what socialism or capitalism is, they just like being given money by the government and paying low taxes.

For now, but they're equally vulnerable, if Labour can win back the red wall seats whilst the Lib Dems squeeze traditional southern seats with both sections of the electorate feeling betrayed it will be very difficult for the Tories.

 

There's a long term demographic argument that because the Tories have stoked property boom after property boom they've priced out a generation from buying a house so they don't feel the inclination to move to the Tories once they're on the property ladder. It's a short sighted position of the Tories to prop up their dwindling supply of elderly wealthy pensioners who even though they pass on their wealth to the their children that doesn't offset the new blood needed to keep them in power long term. Their brazen attempts to gerrymander are being driven by this.
