Yes, I think he genuinely hates him

Then let's see him go for it

Sounds like Boris will be resigning in a matter of days

He's delusional, so don't count on it.

It's going to happen. Problem is, what's the alternative?

I think he may have to be forced out. He's gone almost full on Trumpian it seems.

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.

Yeah exactly.

As if any of us on an Internet forum posting something 'of substance' will have any impact or bearing on what's happening.

'Johnson might change his behaviour if only the posters of SBT posted more seriously! '

Might as well enjoy the shit show.

Get Starmer to call a no confidence vote in the Commons and see if the MPs who have resigned en masse have the balls to stick to their guns

 

[skybluetony176]

Great headline

 

[rob9872]

Polling says otherwise

It's almost as if they've never been wrong before ...

 

[Otis]

Great headline

This one is more concerning though.

 

[shmmeee]

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.

Is this more “fishing” or is this meltdown the real deal?

 

[Ian1779]

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

Not at all… something blah blah about putting Johnson on notice.

He’ll need to consult with his focus groups first.

Government in crisis, advantage in the polls despite being a wet lettuce-for once take control of the narrative

 

[Liquid Gold]

This bullshit really highlights how desperately in need this country is of reform through the whole political system.

Johnson could lose a vonc in the house or the party but if his response is “I don’t care, I’m staying” then we’re bang into a constitutional crisis (again).

If Starmer had any more core principles than insuring the left never have influence in the Labour Party then he’d put together policies around PR, an elected second chamber and a written constitution now to make sure none of this idiocy can happen again.

I agree - and then some actual fucking policies out there.

Then he effectively becomes a dictator. Which to be fair some would be delighted with

This one is more concerning though.

View attachment 25189

Most of his MPs are now happy to do so

The man he idolises was fundamentally opposed to any type of totalitarianism yet here he is trying to rid himself of parliament.

Honestly couldn’t make it up.

I don’t think British politics ever accounted for the ‘what if the PM just refuses to resign in any circumstance’. Then it really would come down to the Queen to end the farce.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Can he quickly create the Boris party and call an election that splits the Tory vote please?

Also Starmer needs to resign because of a curry and someone decent fights the election for Labour.

A man can dream.

And that is an absurd situation for a modern western democracy to be in. A fucking monarch having to sort it out.

I’ve been banging the drum for a written constitution for a while but surely this makes the case for me.

Next PMQs Johnson should complain of a strong smell of milk coming across the aisle

According to the bookies you’re getting Streeting Nandy or Reeves.

She’s confirmed she’s going to run for leader.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

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.

We are infuriated. We have been for quite some time. Yet despite that there are still people like yourself that will just excuse anything they do. When alternatives are suggested they're just dismissed out of hand, often just because of the party/person suggesting it because they're lefties and therefore despise the country and would send it down the toilet.

So in that scenario we've got the choice of becoming totally despondent or to take on a sense of gallows humour as the country around us descends into the shit we inevitably knew it would.
