I am sick of seeing him in all these photo shoots is that what real PMs do now... from Auntie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 Two lost seats, both in constituencies that had a leave majority in 2016 (ironically on the 6th anniversary of the historic vote). The public have sussed Boris out for what he is, the bubble has burst, another nail in his coffin. With Boris gone I am confident the Tories can still win the next general election, preferably with less of a majority than they currently enjoy, hopefully with a Leader and reformed party who learn the lessons of the Boris era and treat us plebs with just a little less disdain than the current regime. Here's hoping... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be interesting to see them replace the Labour party as the official opposition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean that?? - their policies try to out red the reds and out green the greens so more of a muddy brown. I have had the misfortune to live in an area that was under lib dem council control - total disaster for many residents particularly if you had to go to the town centre.

amateur Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 Folk complain about Boris, but for a consistent list of dodgy types, look only to the Liberals and their successors Lloyd George, Jeremy Thorpe, Cyril Smith, Paddy Ashdown, Charles Kennedy.

To be fair the last 4-6 years , who ever was in charge would be getting all kind of carp thrown at them.

redial Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) I think the only things to save Boris is to solve the migrant channel crossing problems. Just thinking getting Brexit done, probably accounted for winning a lot of red wall seats. The other being a few more give aways from Rishi Sunknacker.

Of the visas granted in the latest 12 months, 33% were for study, 31% were to visit, 18% were to work, 3% were for family, and 14% for other reasons. I make that 150 K ish that could, and I say could, be immigrants legal or otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker570 Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 We need him out of No 10 for one reason. It gets that woman out of influence as she is a big pal of Packham and anti shooting. Without a doubt she has been pulling his strings and he is too scared to argue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
