Allister Campbell: Anybody who's ever known Boris Johnson knows that the guy was a liar, a Charleton, utterly unfit for public office.
The delusion still continues. The buffoon says he never lied to parliament, he's innocent and calls the Privey committee a kangaroo court.
Good riddance.
UK General Election 2024 (or 25)
A Conservative area? It will be interesting to see where the market settles when there's more money.

You're quoting Alastair Campbell though. For Campbell to question the integrity of anybody in politics is pure parody. Perhaps we should ask the family of Dr Kelly to join the forum, so they can confirm what a lovely, honest chap Campbell isDerek27 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 09, 2023 9:25 pmAllister Campbell: Anybody who's ever known Boris Johnson knows that the guy was a liar, a Charleton, utterly unfit for public office.

That's a fair point, both Campbell and Mandelson were the fore-runners of the populists ability to twist the truth to snapping point.LeTiss wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2023 11:23 amYou're quoting Alastair Campbell though.

The WMD justification for the intervention in Iraq was non-existent and a decent man collapsed under the pressure of a minor indiscretion, and was not supported.
But I would also say BJ's letter was extraordinarily bitter and is at odds with what the committee have found. He is attempting to bluster his way to some sort of political future. God (if there is one) help us all!

Boris did what he has always done when in a corner. Lie and try to shift the blame. Its his modus operandi
Unfortunatley the right wing media dominate the narrative in Britain so they can spin it as whatever way they like.
For example, its a remoaner plot to reverse Brexit or something. And a lot of people will fall for that crap

Strangely enough support for indie has no change c48% (since the kerfuffle started) and SNP down a few points c36% last time I looked. SNP membership has actually increased c10k and Alba now 3rd largest party by membership in Scotland.
Atm looks like Greens and Labour have picked up a bit and would expect Labour to win a few more seats at next general election (6 to 8) but can't see there being the seismic shift as described by labour.
When / if we get the Ferrier by-election maybe get a better idea?
PS: Tories are toast.
