  1. This is Nadine Dorries level desperate. Fuck me Boris, fuckkkk meeeeeeee.
  2. The Rees-Mogg school of bollocks, a MPs standards isn't just to be policed or judged by their constituents alone. There needs to be scrutiny by the HoC or by an independent body, nothing less.
  3. The report attempts to rebalance the the power in the HoC, the populists lead by Johnson believed that they had the right to ignore conventions and proceedures if it benefitted them. Rees-Mogg tried to push the notion that the only judge of the executive and members is the electorate. But there are a processes within the system that when added together provide the scrutiny and check on power that we need. This rebalance of power shouldn't just stop at Johnson's lies but should look to pull all the tory transgressors back in line, Badenock, Braverman, Rees-Mogg... Anyone else calling the committee a kangaroo court should be charged with contempt, like Brendan Clarke-Smith. Our HoC needs to reassert itself.
  4. If you put the two elements of your post together, leaving and taking up a lower role, suggests they've been pushed.

    Russia

    I suppose post cold war, it was natural for western countries to shrink the size of their army. But in hindsight the cold war never ended.
  6. Yeah, so is dancing on a table with a lit rolled up newspaper up your arse and a Smartie tube on your cock, doesn't mean you do it on civvy street.
  7. People using klicks instead of kilometres.
  8. You forgot 79, 74, 74. 70, 66, 64.
  9. So Johnson has only just submitted his resignation letter, probably spent the morning trying to see if there was enough support to not resign. He is now the Bailiff of the Chiltern Hundreds or something, a job with no pay and no obligations, even he can't fuck this one up, can he?
  10. Nicola Sturgeon arrested as part of the SNP finances investigation, the unionist blob have got her, to pay her back, its the political elite v the people whah whah whah
  11. This is politics, everyone has an angle, but what he says is what a lot of people think, including loads of tory MPs. If Johnson thought for a second that he had enough support to stand up to the comittee report, he wouldn't have resigned. But the truth is his support has ebbed away from both the right and left of the party, he has nowhere to go. People don't want what he has to offer anymore, they want MPs and PMs to respect and enhance our demorcratic processes, not to demean them. Boris is over and I believe that in his heart he knows it.
  12. I see Johnson's flunkies are lining up to say that he has been kicked out of parliment. He resigned, they stop can't lying.
  13. "He should not be allowed to run for the party again. That is Boris’s basic problem, words are designed to make his audience believe whatever they want to believe. There is no anchor to any discernible truth or sense of integrity. To me it is inconceivable that in these circumstances he could stand as a Conservative member of parliament again. It is up to Conservative central office to affirm an official Conservative candidate. No doubt he will now go out into the world and make huge sums of money, writing history as he thinks it was conducted. But it will have little to do with the reality of the mess he left behind.” Lord Heseltine, part of the blob. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/jun/10/furious-tories-boris-johnson-bias-outburst-rishi-sunak-nigel-adams-byelection?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other
  14. It's called on the pull.
  15. The classic 'people v the political elite' argument, and you accuse other people of using a playbook. You only have to read Johnson's resignation letter to see why he is totally unfit to be PM.
  16. Not a lover of the first, the other two are good. Would like to see what they all look like if the stripe colours were swapped, I always prefer the centre stripe to be white.
  17. This is better than the Jaffa Cake conundrum.
  18. He was shit, the silver lining when Koeman left was taking him to Everton.
  19. He is right we are middle aged and angry.
  20. Swansea have had loads of good managers. It will be very Saintsy if we were the one to pull the dud. I'm torn between thinking that Russ is the next big thing to he is Jones with more charm. Who knows, so I'll reserve judgement.
  21. He was no Agboola.
  22. I generally thought they were alright until Suella Cunting Braverman made me rethink.
