Meanwhile to answer your question, (which to be fair has been discussed on the Labour thread in more detail,) Boris very cleverly made the last election firmly about Brexit and not much else, and it bore very little relationship to what the country was feeling about the political parties. Just shows people need to pay more attention to what's really going on.... Edited November 21, 2021 by Anna B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Mister Gee   824 #3125 Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) Wonder if he’s feeling buyers remorse about this one? https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2021/nov/20/fresh-prospect-of-criminal-inquiry-for-boris-johnson-after-jennifer-arcuri-agrees-to-assist-ethics-watchdog  Although the money he chucked at her was ours.

alchresearch   215 #3126 Posted November 22, 2021 Its amusing to see even the DM starting to distance themselves from Boris. Hope the Tories have got a replacement in the wings.  Boris makes a pig's ear of it: PM loses his train of thought in car-crash speech to business chiefs praising Peppa Pig World, comparing himself to MOSES, doing an impression of an ENGINE, and saying 'mother nature' doesn't like WFH https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10229549/Boris-Johnson-praises-Pepper-Pig-World-bizarre-CBI-speech.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Tony   10 #3127 Posted November 22, 2021 It certainly tailed off towards the end.🤣 The interesting part - the rehashed 10 point plan - is at around 20 minutes.     He might well be on his last legs, at least until David Frost has done what's necessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
melthebell   864 #3128 Posted November 22, 2021 (edited)  Interesting and frankly quite scary video when you put everything together.  MPs and second jobs Mps and lobbying Anybody with the money can buy power and influence and become a lord etc MPs with short government career ideas, then onto other jobs Mps such as Geoffrey Cox can be paid a lot of money to defend people / companies / Countries over seas against the UK Closing down avenues for independent watchdogs and journalism about the above.  sounds like none of it can be in this countries peoples best interests  Edited November 22, 2021 by melthebell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
atticus   97 #3129 Posted November 22, 2021 Just seen Boris’s speach to business leaders on the news. It’s genuinely scary that this bumbling idiot is in charge of the country. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mister M Â Â 1,625 #3130 Posted November 22, 2021 A couple of months ago Johnson made a speech to the UN where he was prattling on about Kermit the Frog. God knows what other countries make of the people of this country for having a fool like this in charge. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
