Boris Johnson Why? on 18:58 - Jun 19 with 2538 views | footers | Just been speaking to my mum who's voted Tory in every GE she's been able to. She sounded so depressed about the prospect. If the Tory party think decent people will be impressed by him, then they've got a lot wrong here. | |

Yet a few hundred MP's do. It's utter madness. The man is a horrible piece of shoite and once in power will hit the poorest hard to keep his rich friends happy. It's all going to end badly eventually. | | | |

I get that MM. No heart attack here just thoroughly depressed that supposedly bright people are making what seems a quite ludicrous decision. In a round about way we have created this. BJ as PMis a by product of Brexit is he not? | | | |

My Concern's entirely. Which makes at all the more bizarre cant produce a more credible leader of their own. I can only deduce that Politics is so corrupt that the brightest minds want nothing to do with it. | | | |

They're all more interested in possible promotions than the country. Same old Tories. I wonder if there are any party members on here who'd be willing to defend this shower now? | |

These threads aren't about BJ but are more about getting a pat on the back and a few up votes for stating the obvious that BJ is not fit to lead. | |

I seriously genuinely cannot understand how anyone would vote Tory ever again! They are a complete Joke. Two things for me 1. Wanting to vote for TM's deal if it meant she left. So lets saddle the country with a heap of Sh!te just so their party leader is removed. 2. David Mellor admitting on live TV that he voted Leave as a nuisance vote because he never thought it would actually happen. How could someone so in the know be so reckless with his vote? | | | |

Mate I couldn't care a less about Up votes. I care about hearing from someone perhaps a whole lot more educated on this than me convincing me that BJ is fit to be PM. By and large this board has reasonable balance on such things there must be a counter argument. | | | |

It's about the 87th thread on the same topic. His only defenders are Brexit at all costs types. The Tories are all supporting him because he's their only hope. The Tory members have shown in polls they want Brexit over anything else including the financial health of the country and the future of the Tory party. | |

It's pure cynicism, that's all. They think because he's well-known and a 'character' that it's all right to excuse pretty much everything else about him, including his utter incompetence, when we're at such a critical political juncture. Party first, country second. | |

Boris Johnson Why? on 19:28 - Jun 19 with 2383 views | Trequartista | I think the thing to cling to is that he has held office as Mayor of London and although opinion is split on his performance, he was re-elected for a second term from a very diverse electorate, so he couldn't have done that bad a job. | |

And that's the point he won two terms as Mayor of London and London has always been a Labour stronghold. In fact when he won the first term it was one on this Countries biggest political shocks given Labours stronghold on London. Most experts said it was simply a backlash against Adolf Livingstone and he wouldn't win a second term but he did. | | | |

I apologise for starting another thread. While I don't scour every thread in their entirety most threads seem to cover this as off shoots to a main thread. I thought I would try and understand how someone I view as something of a comedy character is about to front up running our country. | | | |

Yip, strange times.... | | | |

Good luck with that. We’re in Trump ‘cult’ territory with Boris. If you’re looking for rational arguments in favour of Boris being PM I suggest not holding your breath. There’s really very little. He’s being appointed on one issue (Brexit), on which he is both delusional and mocked by our fellow Europeans. I struggle to think of a worse candidate, but in the interest of fairness I’m happy to be convinced otherwise, if anyone can answer your request for a convincing argument. | |

Regarding PL. I share your opinion. But whisper it quietly its not a popular opinion on here. I hope he starts well and gets us moving in the right direction. However, we have seen nothing to suggest he might though. However, the fan base is UNITED so all good. | | | |

If I am honest the thread has gone the way I thought it would. But I was happy to be convinced otherwise. Very worrying indeed. | | | |
