BoJo episode 2 (this time it's personal)

Post by Pondrew » Fri Oct 21, 2022 5:25 pm

Seriously? I mean seriously?
So after the utter mess of the last 45 days; the oracles in the Tory party think that someone who was ousted from the job for lying repeatedly to the public and the commons is the best choice to be the next PM (again)?
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

Better the devil you know???

Thing is, no sensible person would want the job until things have stabilised, so why not let him come back in and take the flack for a while, without anyone else getting their reputation destroyed.

Let's have a general election then, give the chace to ALL the people to choose, especially as it sounds this time it'll be even less people deciding than for Liz Truss :|

That seems exactly what the tory MPs are thinking. It's wrong, just wrong. You shouldn't allow a person who was kicked out for the things he did to just waltz back in because it's the easiest option.

This is serious sh*t; our economy and reputation in the world financial markets are at stake here. Political wrangling doesn't normally affect each of us very much on a personal level. This time it really does.

This thread needs no further input and should be locked :wink:

We’ll be a complete laughing stock as a country, rather than just laughing stock, by putting someone just kicked out for the shambles he made back in NO matter what the reasons/justifications put forward are!

Not that there’s one of the fuckers any better than the other. I don’t trust ANY of them. All IMHO of course :D

    This the problem, though. As it stands, they are playing into the hands of Starmer and his lefty mates. Are the public going to forgive Boris? I can't. Sunak or Mordaunt are much more credible.
    If a GE happens anytime soon; Labour WILL win by a landslide. Protest votes by the millions! LDs will do quite well too.

    For the record; Boris was my MP 20 years ago; I voted for him (twice). I also voted conservative in 2019. Don't want the fecker back, though.

    The conservatives are so far right now, even Hitler would blush, Would a labour government be such a bad thing? As the Tesco Chairman said, they’re the only ones with an actual workable plan. I don’t blindly support any party, I pick the party of the time that I believe best reflects what I feel is right. I haven’t felt that the conservatives have had our best interests since Cameron left, he knew what a s**t show it was going to become so got as far away from it as quickly as he could and each leader since has doubled down. I actually trust Starmer to do what’s best given the hand he’s been dealt.

    BoJo will be the next prime minister, if he can get the 100 votes to enter, it will be him vs Sunak and then the party members will vote BoJo, I’m sure this is how it was planned when he resigned.

    I couldn't face voting Conservative (as I usually do) at the last GE but the alternative was the utterly loony Corbyn. If Starmer had been leader
    then I might have actually voted Labour; he appears to be the most reasonable prospect compared to anyone else who's had the vaguest sniff of being PM in the last 6 years or so.

    This actually entered my head earlier. What if the last 3 months was all a big plan to get BoJo back?
    I really hope it wasn't, then even I would vote for Labour and the whole Tory party should be jailed. :|

    Bojo getting sacked and Liz getting sacked has one common denominator.

    Rishi Sunak wants to be PM and will F**k anyone or anything that gets in his way, even the country and that is from a life long Tory.

    He is almost as dangerous as Starmer
