Snap poll: most Conservative voters now want Boris Johnson to resign

16 comments
  1. Most of the country want him to resign. I suspect most of his cabinet want him to resign but are too drunk on power they hang on.

  2. [For immediate release](https://archive.ph/BP8bE/ff0df7fefa40206318dd300ffe96330e4e98ada2.jpg)

    >This latest scandal facing the government has pushed the number of Britons demanding the prime minister resign to a record high of 69%. The previous high had been 63% on a couple of occasions in January, as the ‘partygate’ scandal continued to rumble. Just 18% of Britons want Boris Johnson to remain in post.
    >
    >Perhaps more significant is the fact that most 2019 Conservative voters (54%) now also want to see the prime minister gone. This is the first time Tory voters have been more likely to want to see Johnson go than stay (33%), with a majority having wanted to keep him as recently as early June.
    >
    >Despite the public desire to see the prime minister evicted from Number 10, far fewer Britons expect Johnson to go willingly. Just one in five (21%) believe he will resign, up from 7% at the beginning of June. Two thirds (68%) expect him to try and stay.
    >
    >When it comes to Rishi Sunak, most Britons believe the chancellor was right to resign (56%), with Conservative voters tending to agree by 47% to 24%.

  3. A company Boris’ newly appointed chancellor, Nadhim Zahawi, co-founded is publicly telling Boris to go. Grinning like a cheshire cat at this one.

  4. I hope he stays.

    There’s plenty more fuckupery he can accomplish.

    He’s a man who have moved on already and is getting jackshit done.

  5. Just watched Newsnight, Tories from all groupings in the party, Hestletine, Rifkind, Frinkstein, Katie Balls all saying it is over for Johnson, only question now is when not if.

    I suspect they are hoping that a new face may win them the next election but the way the economy is going they will take a very big hit on that from their electorate.

    Whoever wins the next election is getting a very poisoned chalice.

  6. Not like they didn’t know who they were voting for. Even before the recent scandals starting surfacing his history was seriously dodgy.

  7. Former Conservative here and I don’t believe this party represents the working class at all. The party has forever lost my support
