If Boris Johnson goes, his critics may find they like the next Prime Minister even less

  1. it’s a party of self serving cunts, they have a total lack of empathy.
    I hope the partying during lockdown anger that most people have lasts till the next election.
    If it doesn’t I’m going to continually bring it up in ever discussion I have with a Tory supporter.

  2. Yeah prepared to risk that, thanks.

    Just need to get this lying cunt out the way first, then we can deal with the next one

  3. Yeah it’s possible but that’s not a reason to keep him after what he has done. Also, arguably likely that the next one won’t be as bizarrely popular with large swathes of the electorate.

  4. Not a risk. Only Sunak has any competence but he is as morally and ethically corrupt as the rest of them.

    I want Johnson fucking destroyed. I want his downfall to be so complete, he emigrates and disappears forever in absolute shame, hopefully taking JRM, Gove, Patel, Truss, Raab etc with him.

    I want it seen worldwide that this level of laziness, dishonesty, incompetence and corruption is 1000% unacceptable and that my country still has standards.

  5. The state of UK politics laid bare, from the incompetent & corrupt liar Johnson to the corrupt PPE contract blagger & total embarrasment Truss.

    Give me fucking strength 😭

  6. Thats the plan, right? Get rid of him and get an even bigger shithead in who is far less capable of fighting an election?

    When 2024 rolls around, I would much rather have Truss in the driving seat than Boris ‘Top lad, man of the people’ Johnson.

  7. Thats gonna be hard right now, Boris’ approval rating is currently lower than Trumps ever got to. 71% disapproval rate according to Politico.

  8. This is why I shut down any discussion of “Boris” with my friends and family. It is not Boris, it is the whole odious party who since Cameron left have not even pretended to cling to sane or responsible government.

    I know lots of people hate Blair and Cameron and Brown, but I felt like the person in charge, whilst a cunt, was still someone I could reasonably expect to function within the checks and balances of our system.

    Boris, Truss, Gove etc are through the looking glass with not an ounce of respect for the country.

    This is a TORY PARTY problem and has been since David Cameron made the idiotic choice to call a referendum on something most people didn’t give a fuck about. Everything since his choice, and the other main cause of our situation, Harambes death, has been a downward spiral.

  9. And further into the far right hellhole we slide. But will they last longer than Boris before the country realises with disgust that they’ve voted in another tory PM?

  10. The main issue with bringing someone else in, is they will be a competent cunt and more dangerous to the average person.
    Boris is shit at life not just his job. He needs to lie to cover up his fuck ups. Where as someone like Priti Patel or Jeremy Hunt don’t give a shit and will just do what they want to do and won’t lie about it.

  11. Johnson has managed to anger a lot of people. Anti-vaxxers, protestors/would-be-rioters, remainers, big businessmen, (whisper it, many of them remainers for the nice cheap labour they’ve become addicted to), and that venomous creature Cummings.

    He is quite obviously an incompetent liar, and as far as the tories are concerned he’s served his purpose. They’ll put someone new in that’s more business friendly, they’ll add wood to the culture-war fire over the next few years and bring the pot to boil just in time for the next election. Starmer is clueless, but i doubt that even he believes a Boris exit will usher him in to number 10, he’s just hoping for a small victory.

    I feel sad for the NHS, underfunded and strangled. The average person will continue to get an ever worse health service until eventually, there actually won’t be any major pluses to living in the UK compared to other European countries, if you have fuck all healthcare, the last and only real benefit British people have, then you may as well go and die in the sun somewhere warmer.

  12. Yeah so let’s keep the current level of corruption going! Could be worse right? You don’t want it getting worse do ya?

    Oh here’s a fucking banger of an idea: DON’T VOTE SELF-SERVING RIGHT-WING NUT-JOBS EY? How’s that for a cog-twister no?

  13. Thing is the replacement probably won’t have the ‘buffoonish charm’ that Boris has. If Cameron or May did half the shit he did they’d never have gotten away with it. Just look at the harm the Dementia Tax did to May in the 2017 GE campaign.

    Don’t underestimate his appeal to Wetherspoons Man.

    I know someone who in 2017 voted Labour in 2019 they were planning on voting Conservative (I talked them out of it in the end) primarily because they liked Boris.

  14. I don’t want him to go because I don’t like him, yes I fucking hate the man, but I want him to go because there has to be consequences

  15. You shouldn’t decide to not get rid of a PM because the next would be worst, the next, just continue to do it until the government understands we want someone competent in their job then they won’t be gotten rid of

  16. Therein lies the rub, we won’t be free of this government for years yet, so anyone deemed fit to replace Johnson will be lazy, self serving and uninterested in anything but their own “legacy”.

  17. It seems that since Blair every prime minister has been worse than their predecessor. I’m not quite sure how deep the bottom of the barrel goes.

  18. I wish Starmer would get his act together. He needs to start telling us clearly how Labour would do things. Maybe he has and I’ve missed it. It is not going to be enough at the next election to just not be the Tory party.

  19. At this stage I kinda just wanna gut the House of Commons. I have zero respect for any politicians and don’t feel that any party can represent me enough to bother even voting for them.

  20. Oh look, youve made the Tories angry! You won’t like them when theyre angry. It’s all your fault.

  21. I hope people realise that the tories are going to weaponise getting rid of him at the most opportune moment possible to maximise their chances of getting reelected. Not that I suspect they will need any help with that…. Sadly.

  22. I don’t care about the PM’s like-ability, I care about how good they are at their job. Hopefully, the next person is more effective in the role.

  23. So we’re just going to accept a lying piece of shit who breaks the law with impunity because Petal doesn’t like brown people?

  24. So yeah, the headline here is true but that doesn’t mean, by any stretch of the imagination, that Johnson should not be shown the door.

  25. The problem the Tories have is that the vast majority of the public have moved on from economic conservatism.

    Boris, Brexit and the core Base got them a good majority but they can’t do that again.

    Anyone leading the party will see quickly that times have changed and they will need some kind of election-gerrymandering ploy… oh I see.

  26. Gove, and Patel are terrifying, Truss and Raab are terminally thick – possibly even surpassing Patel in her dimness, Sunak has kept his powder dry so far, but he gives me George Osborne vibes, and will probably use the spending on schemes like furlough and eat-out-to-help-out to justify very aggressive austerity measures in future.

    I rarely agree with Rory Stewart, but he didn’t *scare* me the way the current shower of chancers do.
