What an ironic name.

Beth Rigby just asked Gordon Brown the same question, or words to that effect.
It took me a while to search for this post. I couldn't even remember what I said. But now that I'm reminded, it makes you realise just how much that ****** ******* (you can choose your own words) can get away with. Had Starmer not been a politician, never mind leader of the opposition, I'm sure he could be taking legal action against Johnson.
Whatever Johnson does, however bad, a week later he does something even worse to distract everybody's attention from his previous cock-up. It's like a political Martingale. He'll keep doing it until he goes bust.

I wish I had become an MP years ago if I knew you could get well paid and get away with all types of shenanigans. 
As long as you're at least as good looking as David Mellor or John Prescott.Archery1969 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 01, 2022 6:46 amI wish I had become an MP years ago if I knew you could get well paid and get away with all types of shenanigans.![]()

Someone said I looked like Rumpole of the Bailey once.

The excuse put forward by his stand-in at PMQ was that nobody can remember everything (not even complaints about sexual abuse) in the last few years.

Javid and Rishi both resign and rumours swirling around Westminster that BJ will be gone in the next 2 weeks. Derek will be happy. 
What a farse! The ministers that stand by Johnson now are going to look like fully dressed-up clowns.Archery1969 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 05, 2022 6:18 pmJavid and Rishi both resign and rumours swirling around Westminster that BJ will be gone in the next 2 weeks. Derek will be happy.![]()

I suspect many more will resign before midnight. If the foreign secretary resigns then that will be enough to end BJ.Derek27 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 05, 2022 6:41 pmWhat a farse!
