Boris Johnson

Tick tock indeed.

My 21 month of daughter struggling to sleep all evening with a sore tummy so we got her up. No joke, she puked literally the moment the result was read out 

[screenexile]

By elections the next few weeks are now massive for him!!

That was not what him or his team thought would happen.

[Tony Baloney]

Almost 75% of backbenchers rebelled so I'd say he's done.

[seafoid]

Hope he survives as it will cost the tories big time at the next GE, if he is ousted tonight they may get there house in order before 2024.

I don't think its possible for there not to be warring factions in there.

Brexit is a gaping wound that won't go away.

Hard Brexit plus inflation. The one exacerbates the other

[gallsman]

They've obviously all been lined up to come out with this guff that the result shows he increased his popularity from when he got the gig, or that he's more popular than Starter. Utterly shameless.

You got about 100+ cowards there, only about 40 odd openly came out against him before hand, didn't even think they get near a 100, some sneaky bollacks afraid to stick their heads above the parapet.

Of the 300 plus Tory parliamentary party 170 are on the governments payroll, ministers, junior ministers, advisors etc etc, they would hardly be biting the hand that feeds them all the same, so if you look at all those back benchers, only 40 voted for him.

He'll have some blackmailing to do for the next while, but he's a dab hand at it.

It's a major victory. More than he beat Hunt by, in an election which was completely and utterly different but that's more important than any accuracy, the prime minister elections.

[seafoid]

There is obviously a big problem. Voters don't like Boris Johnson. There are 2 by-elections coming up. If they lose both of those the game may be up.

[J70]

No shame in him. He'll not be budging.

20 years ago when the tribunals were getting going people used to marvel at the shamelessness of Fianna Fail and their leading lights.

Those boys couldn't hold a candle to the likes of Boris and Trump and the sheer audacity with which they engage in sleaze, corruption and self-dealing.

As long as they're seen as sticking it to the right people, their supporters don't give a f**k,

As has been repeatedly pointed out to them, he got 59% in a one horse race. 

[Armamike]

He's toast.

If he goes below 50% it's over

Thanks. Hadn't copped that part

says "Apparently the standard practice is for the chief whip to enter the PM's office with a glass of brandy + a revolver, and suggest it's time to do the right thing. The only problem being that Johnson is likely to drink the brandy and shoot the chief whip"
