The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.

Absolute state of them. -
"UK firms have been hit by "increased costs, paperwork and border delays" as a result of Brexit, MPs have said. A report from parliament's spending watchdog, the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), said it "was clear" that leaving the EU was having an impact on UK trade volumes." ""One of the great promises of Brexit was freeing British businesses to give them the headroom to maximise their productivity and contribution to the economy - even more desperately needed now on the long road to recovery from the pandemic," said PAC chair Meg Hillier. "Yet the only detectable impact so far is increased costs, paperwork and border delays."" https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60308494

"Boris Johnson's premiership is "past the point of no return" and he should resign, says a financier who has given the Conservatives more than £3m. John Armitage told the BBC that challenges facing the West demanded "serious, engaged" politicians." .... "Mr Armitage said he thought leaders "should leave" if they lose their "moral authority", adding: "I find the lack of honour inherent in modern politics incredibly distressing." Asked if Mr Johnson was "past the point of no return", he replied: "Well, personally yes."" ... "But expressing concern about the standards of leadership in No 10, Mr Armitage said: "It's about more than like, 'if I'm failing, I've done a few things wrong, oh gosh, I'm going to change my advisers, God above!'. "What about a sense of personal responsibility? You know, 'I'm going to change my chief of staff and it will all be fine.' Oh, really?" Mr Armitage said he had told the Conservative Party he would not be giving them any more financial support as things stand, but he does plan to remain a member to retain his vote." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-60310694 -

Do you think that the Tories deliberately distorting the argument by saying that Starmer was responsible/should take responsibility because he was head of the CPS are being disingenuous because they are refusing to make the same demand of the person who is undoubtedly head of #10 Downing Street ? -

Quite possible. All you need to do is indirectly link pedophilia and a named individual, without any evidence or justification, ( as BoJo did with KS ), and these twats are off and running. BTW; the Gove incident was last October, so in no way linked to the current situation. -

Whether right or left wingers, BoJo's Trumpian anti-politics appeals to them all. The SN bullshitters don't come from a particular political wing, pigshit thick is found on both sides. -

He may not have been in the mob surrounding KS, but was part of the protest and urged the crowd to "resist, defy, do not comply". -

Who is fuelling this Sovereign Nation crap ? Trying, with entirely spurious references and total lack of knowledge of the document, to claim they are invoking Magna Carta would be laughable if it weren't for the violence with which they back up the 'opinions' they are being fed. -
Won't matter, no fucker will pay attention to any new restrictions after Partygate.

Carrie complaining in the press that she is being picked on. -
I think starting with 3 at the back and the wing backs pushed high was as much the cause of the first half shambles as the 10 changes. Valery is not, and will never be a Centre Back, Tino looks good bursting forward from FB but there seemed to be less room for him positioned wide in a congested midfield, other players seemed to not quite understand where they were meant to be or what their team mates were supposed to be doing. Maybe Ralph was trying to be too clever, and overlooked the FACup effect of a lower division team playing away at a higher division one, and raising their game to bully the 'big shots'.

It was.

If we could persuade Long to go down with a head injury........

Our midfield is very disjointed.

Which would then leave us with no further substitutions, ( unless it goes to E.T. ).

They are contracted first team squad members of a Premier League team. Even if they are only good enough to be 'bit part' players at that level, they should still be better than a mid table Championship side, especially at home.
-
2 questions ; who are the home team ? Who are the Premier League team ?

The "i" reports BoJo has been touting peerages and knighthoods to MPs to buy their support, and the Conservative Chief Whip has "turned his phone off". -

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/civil-war-in-cabinet-as-boris-johnson-told-to-sack-rishi-sunak-hgdfjtdjj "The cabinet descended into rancour over Boris Johnson’s future last night after both Sajid Javid and Rishi Sunak rebuked the prime minister. One cabinet minister called for Johnson to dismiss Sunak, and two others accused the chancellor of being “on manoeuvres” after he criticised the prime minister for a personal attack on Sir Keir Starmer."........… "Javid, the Health Secretary, followed Sunak by saying that the Labour leader "deserves the respect for taking on such a big public job and doing well". -
