What the hell has the war is Ukraine got to do with Boris not resigning, deputy pm can sanction arms delivery. How can he still be spouting that he didn’t know he was breaking any rules, just go now Boris. |  |

What is most confusing to me is this:
"I won't resign, as I feel even more motivated to work hard"
This means that If I were to steal a laptop computer from work I can reasonably expect to keep my job if I work harder.
"I didn't realise I was breaking any laws" (not to mention one's I had made)
So if I steal a laptop computer from work and get taken to court, I am bound to get a not guilty ruling if I claim I didn't know theft was illegal.
Now to some, stealing a laptop computer isn't a good comparison. I agree that it isn't a good comparison - what Johnson was doing could have killed people. |  |

Perhaps boris needs reminding that his hero Churchill came within a whisker of being booted out in 1942.

The Labour MP Aneurin Bevan summed up the mood of many with a memorable aphorism: “The prime minister wins debate after debate and loses battle after battle. The country is beginning to say that he fights debates like a war and the war like a debate.”
It was only the victory at El Alamein that saved him. |
I'm suprised you went with the Chamberlain example rather than Asquith, or perhaps more realistically, Lord Aberdeen (for the benefit of those who are unaware, all UK Prime Ministers replaced when this country was actually at war, with soldiers in the field). |  |

The irony of their front page being that they've recently not been focusing at all on the War themselves. In Tuesday's edition for example, they instead decided that having a pop at Meghan Markle was more important.

There have been numerous debates on here questioning whether calling people scum is a step too far and indeed, Angela Rayner apologised for using the phrase in the house.
The thing is, following these new developments and reading the headlines in the m***, is there really any other phrase that adequately sums these people up? [Post edited 13 Apr 2022 0:24]

We all know that BJ won't resign through a combination of vanity and the knowledge that he can pretty much get away with anything (he has previous) and make a backhanded apology, and the public can't do anything about it until 2024.
His party and the MPs within in his government either back him, or those that don't are well aware that the situation in this country is going to get worse rather than better over the next 2 years - they're going to try to let BJ carry the can for as much of that as possible before making their move. |  |

David Gauke puts it very well. Especially if the 6 fines leak is true

DaveU is issuing one downvote every time someone mentions the fact that they're now officially criminals on top of being bigoted, corrupt and incompetent. |  |

He didn't resign for a long time when it was clear he should have done before there was any war. He has no intention of resigning full stop.
His party also has no intention of ousting him until it is clear he might cost them their seats at a General Election. If they cynically deal with him leading up to one and try to claim it is him and not them that are corrupt, I do hope the electorate will not fall for it. However, if polls are to be believed, the electorate has little intention to hold him to account anyway. |
Labour should win the next GE comfortably based on the list of incompetencies this Tory Government have consistently shown since their election. However, I really do worry that Labour aren’t fully capitalising on these endless ‘faux pas’ and that Starmer isn’t convincing enough as a leader for people to believe in. | |

I'm pretty sure he's just a bot. No posts, news comments, predictions, nothing.Literally turns out to downvote anyone pointing out that the government are corrupt, incompetent, bigoted and, now., officially, criminals. |
Wow just checked and you're right, he's never posted anything. Definitely the weirdest poster on here if he isn't a bot! |  |

Add in the admission that he wasn't working hard before getting caught.
The total lack of self-awareness is astounding. As is the fact that 67% of Conservative supporters are happy with it. |  |

Why is it Labour and Starmer's fault? It was Corbyn who was too left wing and now Starmer is too bland! It makes no difference who leads what version of the Labour Party for as long as no one is prepared to actually hold the Conservatives to account and smears about Starmer and Saville or similar false equivalences are promoted freely. | |

Without a GE in the offing, I suspect the opposition are 'keeping their powder dry'
Johnson is regarded as a blessing to the opposition - so much so that the Lid dems have been putting his face on their local election material, while he is nowhere to be found on Tory promo stuff.
For the Tories, there is little appetite for a change. Rather like those sitting tight on a chair not wanting another round of musical chairs.
Whilst the effects of inflation and rising prices are being felt globally - the destruction to the economy caused by brexit is only being suffered here.
There are no brexit benefits, not will there be. In fact, the loss of trade with our neighbours is already 30% down. Companies are shifting production abroad, and farmers are reducing crops as they doubt they will have the staff to harvest them.
The bloater is finished, as he has no moral authority to govern. The problem is he has caused such a mess that no one has the wish to come in to clear it up. | | | |

I certainly agree with the points you have made. However, to get the public to get out and force change they need something and someone to believe in. I just don't feel Starmer does that decisively and that's hugely disappointing, especially when Labour have got a huge opportunity in their very grasp, they appear unable to convincingly take it away from the Tories through their policies or their leadership. | |
