Mister Gee   812 #3 Posted May 25, 2019 (edited) The Tories have given us the two worst PMs in history, one straight after the other. The chances of a hat trick seem very high. Edited May 25, 2019 by Mister Gee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Ridgewalk   96 #6 Posted May 25, 2019 Be quite funny if it is Boris, twizzling his hair " engagingly "and reverting to Latin phrases when unable to answer questions. I actually think Corbyn would make mincemeat of him at PMQs.  Always thought that Boris was a bottler, happy to shout from the sidelines but couldn't handle real pressure under the spotlight. I suspect many of us have encountered similar through work .

Top Cats Hat   10 #8 Posted May 25, 2019 One of my favourite comedy moments of the year was when Johnson denied ever mentioning Turkey during the referendum campaign during a speech at the JCB factory. He was then questioned by Michael  Crick of Channel Four News who had obviously Googled 'Boris Johnson Turkey' on his mobile phone and started quoting things he had said.  Johnson then left the platform followed by Crick reading out more and more things that he has said about Turkey, finally locking himself in a room and refusing to come out as Crick continued to read out quote after quote through the locked door!  Johnson is the last of a dying breed of privileged upper class twits with a massive sense of entitlement who despise anyone not part of their narrow elite.

As Oxford and Cambridge are the quickest route to power and influence in the UK, this can only help in ridding us of these parasites.
