A dark day in British history.
We are truly fucked...if he lasts. You can only hope that predictions of the shortest tenure in history come to pass. |

I'm no fan or Corbyn either, but it's a close call as to who would be worse. |

So, Trump, Putin, Johnson. Any nominations for the 4th horseman? Sadly, there's all too many candidates.

Only needs 2 to resign the whip (And many have threatened) then he cannot show the ability to command a majority, May stays on as caretaker and then who knows..  Even if he gets through this week I cannot see him being able to get a Queens Speech through parliament so come the sutumn again who knows. |

Victory speech full of meaningless waffle ('deliver, unite, defeat...') Start as you mean to go on, mate.

The queen is dead, long live the king so to speak. I don’t envy the task ahead for Boris. If he pulls it off then kudos to the bloke. If he doesn’t then fuck knows where we go from that point. Though I suggest there will be plenty of you with your own ideas.

All true but . . . at least he gets people listening. Probably hoping for a gaff, but listening nonetheless. |

The first thing in the in tray, is Iran, Johnson as FS showed his touch here, with dire consequences for Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe. Ask yourself the question who would be more likely to involve us in a Trump conflict, Johnson or Corbyn? |

How would it be worse? Why would it make you want to leave the country? |

A nation of millions has its Prime minister decided by 92,000 people. Democracy?

TBF he did back Hunt in condemning the seizure of the tanker over the weekend. But it was Hunt and May who allowed us to get embroiled in America's attempt to escalate the conflict with Iran in the first place by authorising the seizure of the Iranian tanker in Gib. Which was clearly always going to lead to retaliation. And then failed to protect British shipping against the very clearly signalled retaliation |
