When Will It All Go Wrong For The Tories/ Johnson?

[Iskra]

There’s not really a dignified way-out anymore is there.

Not that Boris would understand the concept of dignity anyway.

I’ve got to say, he’s been woeful and a national embarrassment.

We need Armando Iannucci to set up some cameras in No. 10.

Don't they know how many children he has. Very poor researching when they have to verbally express their ignorance.

I doubt the Johnson knows how many children he’s got so why expect others to know?

If you read what I said, the blame lies with the researchers who specialise in digging out information.

Anyway, what has that to do with the matter on hand?

 

[birchesgreen]

Johnson is apparently in a "buoyant mood", if thats true it just shows how deluded he is.

If rumours are to be believed he’s another one on the way courtesy of his Canadian hairdresser.

BBC reporting Michael Gove has been sacked.

BBC reporting Michael Gove has been sacked.

Can we reasonably assume that he was about to resign but Boris got there first?

 

[southern442]

Sky News says allegedly another ministerial resignation to come.

BBC reporting Michael Gove has been sacked.

Well it's not a resignation, I suppose.

 

[FrodshamJnct]

Can we reasonably assume that he was about to resign but Boris got there first?

Seems a reasonable assumption to me. Now what of Zahawi and Priti Patel who were apparently part of the cabinet group telling Boris to go earlier this evening? At this rate it might just be Boris, JRM and Nadine doing everything.

Who knows but its playing out like a Shakespearian tale

 

[Gloster]

A good career move for Gove. It gets him off the sinking ship, but without the taint of disloyalty.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Prediction: the 1922 Committee changes the rules tonight for an immediate vote of confidence, perhaps held even later tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest. It's hard to see them doing anything now.

How well is your crystal ball working these days?

 

[FrodshamJnct]

‘He's a most notable coward, an infinite and endless liar, an hourly promise-breaker, the owner of no one good quality worthy your lordship's entertainment…’

Michael Gove has been sacked

They have hit the iceberg but Captain Johnson is now ramming the remains of the ship into the iceberg over and over again just to make sure as many of the crew go down with him as possible.

 

[birchesgreen]

Gove sacked.

So not all bad today then.

hardly he's as discredited as BoJo for standing four square behind him

Hogging all the lifeboats for himself

 

[TheGrandWazoo]

Michael Hove has been sacked

My day has been Brighton-ed up!

 

[DarloRich]

Hogging all the lifeboats for himself

oh no. he has burnt the boats.

 

[Darandio]

Managing to get sacked when others around you are resigning must take some doing. Comedy gold.

 

[nlogax]

I see it’s all going swimmingly. Monday 1922 rule change followed by new VoNC it is.

Taking down the tory party might just be the first good thing Boris has done for the country

 

[Whistler40145]

My day has been Brighton-ed up!

Apologies, haven't got my glasses on

 

[birchesgreen]

Please sack Patel next.

 

[SuspectUsual]

I had it down as Hitler’s last days in the bunker

"I think Jim Hacker would've had more credibility"

He did that sometime ago - The Tory party no longer exists.
