Tell Me Something............Anything!

[Sherwood]

Have we really reached the stage where this type of behaviour is considered acceptable? Unfortunately, yes! Seems we have our own Marjory Taylor Green/Lauren Boebert.

They will have been at work, having been told to "get down there and get a reaction". If it were up to me those exiting MPs would each have been given a carton of eggs and been told to give that baying mob what for.

Not sure what Marjory Taylor Greene has to do with anything, but if she's a dead shot with a double yolker she has my vote. You may have guessed, when it comes to all the current political nonsense, I'm past caring. Cabinet ministers are just like Dr Who, they come back in a different body, but it's still the same shit.

She's a radical Trumpist with no respect for herself or her constituents. Do we really want to go further down the US route? Route 666

Unforced errors? If this were a tennis match he would lose 6-0, 6-0, 6-0!

Apart from no real policy agenda other than Brexit, consider these "achievements". Extreme and long term damage to the UK economy; promotion of repeat sex offender; lslamophobic statements; serial and compulsive liar; Partygate; Wallpapergate; repeated abuse and waste of vast amounts of public money; his performance as Foreign Secretary and refusal to leave accomodation after being removed from office; reneging on agreement HE signed with EU; poor handling of Covid pandemic; attempts to use public funds to favour ex-girlfriend and now wife; threats to security in Ireland by attacks on Northern Ireland Protocol. I could go on but my typing fingers are tiring. Without doubt the most corrupt and venal PM in recent history. Comparisons to Churchill are frankly ridiculous. Churchill had many faults but he would never put his own interests above those of the country the way Johnson has. Even now the refusal to leave office immediately is a sign of his total self centredness!

the idea that one man has caused long term damage to the UK economy is a bit silly. How does that work?

Islamophobia? Give me a break. Partygate, wallpapergate? Trivial rubbish. Just shows the total paucity of ideas in the opposition that that was the best they could come up with.

Promoting a sex offender - one of the unforced errors but hardly a major event in our lives.

Northern Ireland - insoluble problem, always has been long before Brexit.

He can't leave office until a new party leader is elected. Or I suppose he could and there could be a caretaker PM but is that really necessary?

I'll skip all the unsubstantiated corruption claims and the 'one man's opinion' stuff.

No-one's comparing to Churchill. Although if Churchill had been around today he would get a lot more grief than Johnson.

Even though his performance has been disappointing he was nothing like as bad as Gordon Brown. Or Teresa May. And are we forgetting that the alternative at the time was Jeremy Corbyn and his woke warriors?

yes the choice could be better but it never has been in the past either so there's no reason to expect change there. Although I do look forward to this unprecedented new era where politicians will be expected to tell the truth all the time. That should be interesting.

It will certainly be novel!

I don't think this behaviour shows that we are following the US - our politicians have probably always been like this. The difference being that images of such actions weren't headed for global scrutiny within seconds and for all eternity.

I think what she misses is that sign to press etc is that sign to the general public.
Now we know that's what most feel privately but now she's stuck with it for life.

[Sherwood]

I can see why you like Johnson! BTW, Boris sees himself as a Churchillian figure. Northern Ireland was solved until Boris broke it. You consider lying to Parliament and the British people "trivial rubbish". The former is a sacking offence! I will not bother with your other responses as you clearly think his behaviour acceptable.

That is just plain wrong. UK Politics and politicians were not always like this, if for no other reason that they would be held accountable for this type of behaviour. That is the problem that the US is facing: the Republicans, who had a majority in the Senate blocked any attempt to punish Trump or hold him to account. Boris is without question a bargain bin Trump!
