Nonsense from brand Boris.So now its a 14million mandate.

Total votes has no relevance in the UK its the number of elected members that counts.
Usually the Tories are ruthless when they sense electoral blood with their leader, but as was suggested earlier in the thread, they got the vote of no confidence wrong in its timing.Seriously though, if his own party can't force him out, and the people cannot, what next? How do the government expect to...govern?
He should call a snap election just for the laughs ….Tories would probably win tbh.
They just had an interview with Stanley Johnson. Apparently he has resigned from being Boris’ Dad.
The 1922 Committee hold the power. A new executive next week and the direction they take could be the determining factor in bringing this farce to an end.Seriously though, if his own party can't force him out, and the people cannot, what next? How do the government expect to...govern?
I agree with that Neil but I’d go a step further. I want to see the back of Johnson but I’m pleased he’s taking the stance he is with his party for no other reason than they deserve it.Don’t like the bloke or what he stands for. I do think though that when backed into a corner you should come out punching and Gove had that coming for years. Reprehensible character. Sunak also doesn’t understand the burden on the ordinary person on the street. Javid politicking for his own good. If he takes some of those snakes down before he goes it’s to all our good imo.
Johnson only lives to the next crisis.
So the 1922 have the election for a new executive on Monday. Change the rules on Tuesday and hold a vote Tuesday night.
Johnson is betting he can offer enough peerages/jobs to get enough on his side.
If that doesn't work then he has the nuclear option of a general election. He figures that the tories will have to rally to the flag or lose their seats.
Don't underestimate his need to cling on to power, he still thinks he's Churchill.
So if you really want to understand the morals of our current conservative Gov then look at it this way."These are my principles and if you don't like them I have others" (Marxist quote).
Sunak and him stuck up for the Liar too many times.
