Claims Johnson was warned it was a party but dismissed the warnings.

I suspect there may have been similar conversations around the fridge.

It certainly should be.

It's a bit disappointing to see so many - such as the lady asked on the street - say "absolutely he should go", but then follow up with "but he won't as he is a moral vacuum". It's entirely understandable and what many are thinking, but I'd almost wish they left the second bit out as I can't help but feel Boris is able to take that as a positive "I am a moral vacuum and the population know that so I can stay".

They should just say "he should go and everyone else needs to say so too if we are to save this country from a slide into an even worse moral crisis".

Operation Dirty Dog….

…would be more apt, given the number of children he has by multiple partners.

Perhaps he was inspired by Ludacris?

Worth bearing in mind Bojo was in negative territory with party members BEFORE "partygate"

Not many going to be leaping to his defence if they were already sick of him.

The 1922 mob are run by Sir G Brady (as opposed to his GOATness Sir T Brady), who is famous for never revealing or hinting at how many letters he has until the threshold is reached. I refer you all back to my various posts over the last few weeks as to what would now/will happen.
Boris won’t resign currently, he is still PM and commands power. He still had the personality type to believe he can fight a way out of this. The end will come from the traditional men in grey suits of the Tory Party. The 1922 mob will deliver the coup de grace. The Sue Grey enquiry gives them time and space to organise the runners and riders for the leadership. The Spring elections gives them a breakwater, you can effectively write them off and blame all on Boris. Perfect scapegoat.
Bottom line…a new PM is in place for summer and take advantage of the bounce back, opened up economy and good weather vibes. Everything bad goes on Boris and the good times are here again.
There are challenges to weather in the cost of living crisis, but you have a 5 month gap now to put a strategy and plan in place.

The alt is going hard and heavy now, but I just don’t see how that works strategy wise. The timescales mean that any new incumbent has no time to change anything prior to the Spring elections. They will walk straight into a hammering and you never launch a new leader into huge defeat.

Operation Red Meat - throw titbits of populist read meat to the red wall such as the BBC funding freeze announced on a Saturday evening, as you would…
New levels of cynicism now prevail in government.
That'll go well when the BBC announces that the first thing hit by the Government funding freeze is free TV licences for the over-75s.

That may well be spot on. Added to which the exercise can't be repeated for 12 months so candidates need time to prepare. It probably also pays to wait a bit to make sure all the revelations are out & see who is left unscathed.

Piers Morgan (yes, I know...), on BBC Sunday morning, made some good points about Johnson's hypocrisy and people's anger about it....before he went off into a rant about Harry and Meghan and then went in for some self-promotion laugh

Oliver Dowden (what a wet lettuce) came out to bat on BBC for Johnson this morning.

He'll be taking one for the Big Dog soon.

Sunak would be good.

Starmer, forget it until he divorces momentum and the loony left.

He appears to be doing his best to.

I suspect that some would never acknowledge it, even if he had them all locked up, though.

He became chancellor because he was a Bojo yes man. Not a good pm
