    Where is your defence of this disgraceful object? He lies and lies to the public, his family, his employers and his lovers, yet you roll over like a puppy dog and can see no wrong in him. There is something very wrong in your mind to believe him to be a fit person to do anything in public life.

    There was good article in the Sunday Times this week by Dominic Lawson on Labour's terminal decline. Instead of blaming Momentum for the insidious infiltration he put the blame squarely on those moderates that ran away so letting the left wing take total control over every part of Labour. When Tom Watson left, he probably realised he would lose his seat, all hope of stemming the insurgency evaporated. What they have left in charge is a collection of second rate goons unable to grasp the fact that the country will never elect Marxists to office.

    The country will show their confidence in Boris Johnson on Thursday. He is clearly the only fit option to run the country.

    Can you please explain what in your opinion makes this miserable specimen fit to run the country.

    Johnson is the leader of the Conservatives and they are the most popular political party in the UK. I know you have little respect for democratic results but there you are, that is democracy. You have actually helped, in a very small way, to create the backlash which ensures the Tories continue to govern, many thanks.

    Sorry SH but I am sure you are not so stupid as this answers implies. We are not talking about what party Johnson leads, or what the polls are saying. We are talking about Johnson the man. The one who leaves a trail of destruction behind him. I am asking you to explain what makes him suitable to be a leader of the country.

    You are clearly desperate and devoid of a strategy to defeat the Tories. I'm surprised you do not understand the UK has a parliamentary not a presidential system. Members of the public are interested in which party is the nearest to their wishes in addressing future major issues. Brexit, immigration, NHS, schooling etc. The performance of actual leaders is secondary but in Corbyn's case he has managed to severely damage Labour's cause.

    You may not like Johnson but he is popular with the general public at this time.

    Hang on a minute SH. You say that this is not about the leaders, but then have a go at Corbyn. It shouldn't be about leaders you say, but why may that be when you roll over to have your tummy tickled everytime that Johnson is mentioned. Today was a disaster for Johnson when he showed just how much empathy he has for a four year old child. He sends his pet spaniel to try and quell the storm in Leeds, but only succeeds in proving that more lies come easily to him and his party. If you don't wish to discuss the disgraceful behaviour of your leader, may I suggest that you stop trying to personalize your comments about Corbyn. You cannot have it both ways!
    Of course it is true that the public should be interested in Schools, NHS etc. but the parties that are talking about such things are not the Tories. When they do they try to distort the information. 50,000 nurses suddenly become 31,000, while 40 new hospitals suddenly become 6. If you believe in this rubbish maybe I should suggest you have been spending too much time in The Crown.

    Of course it is about political parties but Corbyn is so extraordinarily bad he has made it an issue. I have really enjoyed Corbyn playing his part in making Labour unelectable. He really has been the Tories best asset for years. The referendum deniers have moved the attention away from the issues above, I cannot thank you enough for helping to increase the support for the Tories even if it was unintentional.

    We will see how popular Johnson and the Tories are on Thursday, I suspect they will remain the nation's favourites.

    I don't think I need to comment SH. Anyone with more than a single brain cell can see that you cannot defend a man who has made a speciality of lying. Once again you really don't wish to engage with those who cannot bring themselves to support such a disgrace of a human.
    Would you like to make some comments about your favourite and his behaviour today? He appears to have attracted scorn from most parts of the media, but maybe you see things differently from most sensible people.

    Most sensible people will wait for the public's view on Thursday, I suspect Boris Johnson will be the leader of the winning political party. Your desperation at constantly being on the losing side is there for all to see.

    Not Marxists. But that’s probably a little too tricky for you to understand.

    Poor old you. Cannot defend the person now that you voted for. Has he let you down? Comments please on his disaster today.

    Boris was an excellent choice as PM, he has raised the profile and increased the chances of the Tories regaining a majority. He will complete Brexit in January. He remains popular with the public in complete contrast to the Labour or Lib Dem leaders. He is a winner. You unfortunately keep backing losers. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    You really do not even try to defend the man. I fully understand that it must be difficult for you, but you could try.

    You are well out of tune with the British public, I suppose a price to pay for being stuck in the middle of nowhere.

    Do you get accustomed to losing every election? I suppose it just becomes the norm.
