Johnson to stay because of Ukraine? Nonsense. The war makes it more urgent that he go

  1. The Ukraine situation requires a peace initiative not a collection of war mongers pumping in more weapons, nobody fits that bill, nearly every MP in parliament is a shill of the arms industry, replacing Boris won’t make a shred of difference

  2. Boris is like a little Churchill. In crazy hard times, there seems to be a need for a tough guy on a tough guy. Boris the little Churchill. The lion with his majestic blonde mane. He’s like the few world leaders to step onto the front line in a conflict zone, not many can earn the title, the Cock of Ukraine. That itself say something.

  3. Every other leader who has visited Zelensky has been given helmet, flak jacket, and a tour.

    Our Prime Minister does love his little dress-up box so, and you know he was *dying* for this photo op – instead Zelensky gave him a ceramic bird: unclear if it was a cock, a chicken or a turkey, but clearly symbolic. His face in that photo was the same face you see at PMQs when he’s being laughed at, the rictus grin with “I’ll get you at the school gates” eyes.

    If even the leader of a war-torn nation we are supplying with weapons can roast our PM in front of the world, I don’t think his tenure is really going to swing Ukraine one way or another.

  4. Lets be honest, the guardian hasn’t put a single positive thing about the tories out in a long time. It’s another example of preaching to the choir. This article might as well just be a copy and paste of 2019.

  5. There’s a war happening in another country.

    We can’t possibly change our prime minister.

    Edit: /s just in case

  6. Its probably for the best to not have someone who has directly benefited from russian money as prime minister while we are sanctioning russia.

  7. *looks at france thats about to elect Lee Pen*

    It is shite but better the devil you know i guess

    It can’t get better but it can always get worse.

  8. Homes for Ukraine Conservative Robert Jenrick, MP for Newark, & his family have welcomed Maria, 40, Christina, 11, Boden, 15, into their Nottinghamshire home. Yvette Cooper Caroline Lucas Sadiq Khan STILL Haven’t take one between them EVER

  9. You know, there was an article I saw that reads, PM says ‘sorry’. Will pay fine. And I sat there in utter confusion, were we expecting him to not pay the fine or something such? It’s worded in a way like he wasn’t even planning to pay the thing but, oh that kind hearted boris, he’ll pay the fine! What a gent.

  10. I thought this was a headline, and someone’s opinion.

    But the entire thing is the headline.

    Not disagreeing but why have I been reading this shit for about a year now. I think weather he goes or stays the next bastard will continue his job of fucking us all over.

    That is the role of presendent..erm I mean prime. Mister. Minister. Selling out the people. Fuck. I mean selling the people. Fuck I mean fuck the people. Doh I’ll never say it the way you want me to.

    Bigots.

  11. Lets be clear here though – if Boris goes, Rishi likely will have to go too. Which leaves the main front-runner for PM as none other than Liz Truss, a woman who models herself on Thatcher, and has a warmongering streak running right through her.

    As much I’m sure we all like Boris as much as standing barefoot in a pile of dog shit, and agree that Russia are directly to blame for the current situation in Ukraine, the *last* thing we need is a PM willing to escalate this to the point it becomes a global nuclear war. It’s already looking worrying this might happen anyway.

  12. I mean this could have been a valid argument if only there were any proof of Boris Johnson actually doing anything that has to do with the war, like if he was spending his days making sure that russian assets and properties in the UK were being seized etc, but so far they haven’t done any, so doubt it would be worse if we replace him with anyone else now.

  13. We all laugh at the Russians and the contemptible state of their armed forces.

    Corruption, we smirkingly cry, has led them to this pitiable state.

    At what point do we consider that corruption never occurs all in one go. It is a drip drip drip that slowly erodes everything about a country and it always starts at the top. If the Prime Minister doesn’t abide by *his own ministerial code* then who is to say that civil servants should? And if the MoD doesn’t then who is to say that half the missiles they buy in the next round of procurement don’t end up being foam rubber fakes?

    We are quite literally taking the first step on a path that Russia is a long way down. We need to do the right thing, not look for excuses to allow the wrong thing to go ahead simply because we have nailed our colours to the mast of Brexit/Tories/Just really hating labour.

    Get him gone.
