Talking of time, IRA boy, are you getting ready for the 12 July marches ?

Why would I do that you pissed up old failed PE teacher?

Exactly this



Like that song

Lyrics are eerily appropriate

 

[David O'Day]

Wouldn't it simplify their stance to vote down his policies when facing the party members and nation?

Yeah also wouldn't the Cab Sec just advise the queen to appoint someone who can command a majority to form a government?

She is the boss after all

Vladimir Johnson

One is a deluded dictator, hell bent on retaining power, who has condemned thousands of his countrymen to death.

The other is Vladimir Putin.

Someone please play this outside No. 10

Great tune

Both just can't get enough of Zelensky either.

Great tune

'Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey, that's quite a different subject '

maybe the idea is its argued there's no clear alternative so a general election is called, or maybe they just think he's completely lost it and will do anything he can to prolong his time as PM.

Could he, at least in theory, leave the Conservatives, end this term of parliament for the summer recess and sit it out until the autumn? Is that possible within the current framework?

Surely the opposition parties and the majority of the Tories would go for a motion of no confidence which would force the government to resign?

Are the departments able to run with no state secretaries?

no idea, is there a difference between what is expected behaviour and what the rules can actually force? If he seriously refuses to go how difficult can he make it?

With Gove gone isn't there currently no commons based ministers in the Dept of Levelling up

I'd kind of assumed that wasn't a real department

it's the old DCLG and i was wrong there is 1 MP left there as a minister

Good old Nads. Failing to grasp the most basic of details, if nothing she’s consistent.

All this shit show you're revelling in and Labour still won't win enough seats to form a majority government at the next election whether that be now or any time in the next two years. I think secretly, like many others, it's the preferred stance to moan about what we have rather than offering any credible alternative.

 

[rob9872]

Truth is you should be genuinely infuriated by events but prefer cheap petty point scoring creating and reposting poor attempts at humour rather than anything of substance.

Boris doesn’t even have enough backers in his own party to form a majority government. You’re in desperate need of a reality check of what’s actually happening.

Well no what I want is Starmer to have the balls to push for an election at a time when the current government is an embarrassment to the country.

Not quite sure how that answers what I said, but even if tomorrow is his last day as pm, it will still be 1 day more than Starmer will ever have as pm.

I passed the point of infuriation about 2 general elections ago. All I have left is point and laugh. Which ironically is more than Boris has left.

Polling says otherwise

Possibly. But that’s not exactly something to brag about.

I am infuriated with Boris Johnson for sure. Doesn't mean I can't find humour in the ridiculousness of the day's events at the same time.

No point scoring. The PM has brought the office into disrepute and is behaving like a spoilt child.

Does Sneer have it in him to go for the jugular?

 

[Otis]

Another one gone

 

[David O'Day]

Does Sneer have it in him to go for the jugular?

Yes, I think he genuinely hates him

 

[Bugsy]

Someone check if the cat hasn't resigned yet

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

Sounds like Boris will be resigning in a matter of days

Yeah Starmer genuinely despises him (as does anyone with any morals or dignity), you can tell.
