He's also got a rather poor memory too, as there seems to be a lot of conversations here can't seem to recall when questioned about. |  | | |

Because the alternative was Jeremy Corbyn. It's quite simple. Bumbling idiot or dangerous Marxist terrorist hugger. |  |

Or, we're easily convinced that foreigners are why so many of us are struggling. BJ was not the only alternative to JC, you know. | |

The worst possible PM at the worst possible time, unfortunately. As tens of thousands of people found out to their ultimate cost. And that's before you start on the stonkingly large financial penalties of his pet project.
People fell for his patter, sadly. '"Good old Boris", ha ha'.
They're suckers for an easy to remember three word slogan too. |  |

Indeed. As if he cannot recall what a meeting with someone exotic as Lebedev was about. |  | | |

Only meaningful one, sadly. And even though we don't vote for the leader, it has a big impact doesn't it?
Mind you, their manifesto was streets ahead of the tories one in terms of what we need, so I suppose we get what we deserve. I held my nose and voted for my Labour MP and she's been absolutely fine. No sex abuse scandals, not iffy procurement corruption, no blatant law breaking, no dossing off the job and getting a gig with GammonNews instead, no racist, homophobic or misogynistic outbursts on social media, no constant culture wars and undermining UK institutions, etc.
Seeing Johnson today reminds me how good it's been to not have him constantly in the way and in the news. Much like when Trump left, it's a relief. I'm hoping we'll get the same feeling when the Tories go. I'd just like a government that gets on with governing. | |

He is not a buffoon. He is a very calculating man, with the buffoonery being part of the calculated shtick that got him into power. He is an intelligent man, but unfortunately his intelligence only went as far as focusing on and benefiting himself and absolutely no one else. If that man had to ride a unicycle whilst juggling turnips around Westminster to guarantee power, he would do it in a heartbeat. |  |

He is a buffoon, but a buffoon who thinks he's intelligent.
He isn't intelligent. He just has an accent that many will think marks him out as intelligent.
He has no intellectual skills.
He has no leadership skiils
He has always been palpably unfit to hold any public office.
He's not even capable enough for a seat on Handforth Parish Council. [Post edited 6 Dec 2023 18:49]

Lets turn to Dominic Grieve for the answer to that question

"he isn't there by accident. he got there Dan, because in the middle of the inability to deliver a sensible brexit by proper means, people turned to someone who would do it by fraud" |  |

Agreed, although riding a unicycle whilst juggling turnips around Westminster would only embarrass him. It's the fact he'll throw anyone and everyone else under the bus to get his way that makes him a thoroughly unpleasant individual. | |

I mean in terms of our two party politics. There's only two parties that really mean anything. The others are only there to make up a coalition in the event of a hung parliament. | |

Last time we had a post about a political leader, I think it was uniformally agreed that no one, anywhere has done a good job. That was until one lad piped up with that bloke that brought in the National Health system. Going back some. |  | | |

It's probably best described as a 1.5 party system. he Tories have done very well out of First Past the Post over the past 100 years.
Over 56% of those of us who bothered to vote at the last election ( 67% turnout) didn't vote for Johnson.
Two cheers for democracy. [Post edited 6 Dec 2023 19:15]

Shortly after promising to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, he said he was pleased to be there! He is a compulsive liar too. |  |

In the U.K you don’t vote for political parties or Prime Ministers, you vote for the individual you think will best represent your interests in Parliament, and the elected MPs are to make up Government and Opposition. Sadly most people just vote thinking it’s for a leader and do no research on who they’re actually voting for, hence the constant confusion. Nobody in this country in their lifetime has ever voted singularly for a political party or Prime Minister. |  | | |

Obviously, but the leader is important nonetheless as they have a big input on the agenda and performance. They can’t just be discounted. | |

They also change every other year, we’ve had 5 different Prime Ministers in just over a decade and likely will have another in post soon. You vote for a Member of Parliament, or a Councillor locally, not a Party, our system isn’t built like that. Unfortunately voters are lazy, 90% couldn’t tell you the person they’ve voted for let alone name 10 accurate policies of the party that person belongs to, they vote for whichever media source says they should vote for or against in Corbyns case. The voters are as at fault for the continued Con-Lab disaster as the politicians. | | | |
