The disgraced corrupt racist liar thread:British PM edition

[Duncan Gardner]

Why would he accept it then?

[George C.]

As below.

Agreed.

The same with Gove. He gets to piss on Bozo when he screws up.

[Duncan Gardner]

Thanks all. So Gove's punishment from Johnson is an embarrassing/ fraught non job in which he gets to fcuk up the latter's new Government? I'm struggling to see the mutual benefit to be honest

[George C.]

There isn't one.

[Walt Flanagans Dog]

Guessing this is now the thread for general politics / Tory malaise ?

Alan Duncan resigns from the foreign office before Johnson gets the chance to sack him.

Charlie Elphicke (Tory MP, Dover) charged with three counts of sexual assault.

[Snake Plissken]

Let us not forget that Elphicke was originally suspended by the Tories but reinstated in order to be able to vote against the No Confidence motion on Theresa May.

[Ginger Yellow]

Nice little welcome present from Duncan there. Kind of surprised Bercow didn't allow it.

[Etienne]

I suspect Bercow thinks Johnson would win it, and is keeping his powder dry.

[Etienne]

Swinson beats Davey.

[Lang Spoon]

Yeuch.

[ursus arctos]

So, do the Tories suspend Elphicke again or do they wait for a petition to force a by-election?

[Etienne]

They've suspended him again.

[ursus arctos]

So with Grieve and Clarke on record for No Confidence and a Tory deficit of over 20 points in the current by-election, there is no effective majority, is there?

Not that the Queen will do anything, of course.

[ursus arctos]

This is an intriguing chart that really illustrates how the split on Brexit doesn't map to party identification

Given she's 93 and literally just a figurehead, what were you expecting?

Seriously.

Interesting chart mind.

Though if you showed it to 90%+ of the Brit electorate, they'd deny it.

[Ginger Yellow]

Another resignation: Anne Milton

[Etienne]

We're cutting it fine.

[Antepli Ejderha]

I know it's ministers jumping before they were sacked but it's still significant. Could we hit double figures by the end of the day?

[Walt Flanagans Dog]

Johnson with nearly two-thirds of the vote.

[DCI Harry Batt]

So less support than Cameron when he won.

[Duncan Gardner]

Took barely 2 minutes for an email to arrive from the Dear ex-Leaderene asking for money to oppose him

[Sporting]

Thread title needs changing.

[Etienne]

No, he's not PM yet. Queen still has to sign off. Will probably happen tomorrow.

[Guy Profumo]

Thread title needs changing.

"Dude, we are going to energize our country"

[Nefertiti2]

Fine to change the heading but that's an insult to Primark
