Will Boris bugger off? - Lilith7 - 25-01-2022
He seems to have overstepped the mark this time, & some within his own party want him out. Some say its inevitable but its Boris so who knows.
Who thinks yes, who thinks no? I think he'll somehow cling on a bit longer.

not voluntarily... might get pushed though, does a vote of no confidence roll him?

My Whitehall staffer friend reckons Boris has been hanging on by his teeth since before the party scandal and he will go any day now.

No, only when it suits him

He wont bugger off, he will cling to power and be controlling just like other PMs around the world.

I am an optimist. I'm hoping he'll dig deep and find a shred of honour.
RE: Will Boris bugger off? - Magoo - 26-01-2022
changing of the guard shouldnt be undertaken by the media and gossip
using scandal as catalyst for change is emotive and manipulative.
unchecked the frenzy will die when the next atrocity kicks off.
nothing to see here move along will win.

He's a Tory.
Not convinced that he, or they, have much idea of honour - quite good at talking about it, but that seems to be as far as it goes.

Hmmm there is also someone else thats really good at talking it up 
RE: Will Boris bugger off? - Lilith7 - 26-01-2022
I think it comes with being a politician; the ability to talk really well about virtually anything.

Boris Johnson has confirmed he attended the event, saying he was there for 25 minutes and ÔÇ£believed implicitly that this was a work eventÔÇØ.
Save it for the investigation Boris

And if anyone believes that, then some of us have bridges for sale...
RE: Will Boris bugger off? - Magoo - 26-01-2022
25 minutes, just long enough to demolish a couple of bottles of bollinger and
snort a few rails.
nothing in it.
