Sky News: Boris Johnson survives confidence vote and will continue as PM

  1. Imagine walking into work and knowing 148 people of your own team have no confidence in you. It’s time to go.

  2. Incredible result for Labour, frankly.

    Every Conservative MP has had to say they either support a lying prime minister, or they’re lead by someone they themselves don’t have confidence in.

    Political dynamite.

  3. 148 of his own MP’s voted No… 41%!

    Not a knockout blow but that’s still an astounding amount of votes against him.

  4. 148 of your own don’t have confidence in you, dead man walking. 41% of your party want you gone, Boris. Just fuck off you scruffy wanker.

  5. Wheres that video of Moggy claiming Theresa May lost the vote for getting like 100 odd against her in 2018?

    Found a bit of the interview…

    Considering how Jacob went after remainer May like an attack dog, this Victorian pencil needs to be called out for his bullshit.

  6. Spineless fucks those 211. Interesting to see how he carries on with such a massive number of votes against his leadership, though. Probably as if nothing happened with a few sprinkles of the line “tHe CouNtY wAnTs tO MoVe On” in the next several PMQs.

  7. At least this means that if they don’t oust him before the next GE, the only way they’d win is if Labour publicly announced it supported boiling puppies alive

  8. FFS!

    ​

    I hope the English people in this subreddit get out and vote against him in the next election.

    You can get him of power.

    Please.

  9. Surely it’s time for the opposition to call for a motion of no confidence in the government to force tory MPs to make their position public?

  10. This will only embolden him and I can already see the right wing press praising him as a king and a champion. The fact is that he lied to the public multiple times, acted as if it was no big deal and told the public it was time to move on when that is very much not what the public wanted. It does not matter who you voted for at the last election because everyone, Tory voters included, should feel angry and ashamed that it is Boris Johnson who is our PM.

  11. It’s been six months since talks of replacing him started and we are still hearing from MPs that nobody is lined up to replace him. The fact that so many conservatives MPs believe that no one else within their tanks would do a better job than Boris Johnson is quite the condemnation for the tories. Is there really such a vacuum of talents in this party?

  12. Thank fuck. This is exactly what I hoped for.

    If Boris got knocked out, the Tories would have had a full two years to regroup before the next election. Now they’re stuck with Boris for at least a year. But at the same time, the result was close enough to leave the Tories divided and the cabinet weakened.

  13. On the BBC

    > Boris Johnson said he thinks he received a “convincing and decisive” result tonight, adding that it means the government “can move on and focus on the stuff that really matters to people”.

    This *is* what matters to people, you fucking party-throwing while preventing others from seeing dying relatives hypocrite sack of cum.
