Off Topic Politics Thread

And now it's official.

 

So he’s gone, except he hasn’t actually gone.

We can expect more of the same, and worse, until the whole shower of absolute **** is flushed away. The very worst Prime Minister this country has ever had, by a long way, and propped up by a sad stack of idiots.

 

Sadly, I do have to agree with you.


EDIT: Not sadly because I like Boris BTW

 

He so much wanted to be remembered like Churchill but his legacy is being ten times worse than peace time Churchill, a lying, cheating, self serving blowhard.

 

Boris Two Wives? Boris The W*nker? Better Tell Whatshername?

 

Ooh, I don't know, being likened to a nodding dog that sells insurance isn't a bad memorial

 

Ben Wallace leading polls for the next leader, largely on the strength of his ability to just shut the **** up and let everyone around him debase themselves.

 

Not so much Best as Least Worst...

The fact that we can have a PM resign to the sound of a distant karaoke machine and pantomime booing almost brings my national pride back after it has been ruthlessly decimated over the last six years.

 

Only problem with that website is that it will do nothing to differentiate him from the other candidates due to the whip system.

 

Boris always looked like a guy who combs his hair with a balloon.

 

That's a compliment.

 

Would rather Tugenhadt if we’re going ex-military.

 

New Tory slogan; the Conservatives, not as bad as Hitler

 

'The Conservatives, (Probably) not as bad as Hitler'

 

Jonathon Pie says goodbye.

 

I have it on good authority that he does his hair with a rat catchers mallet.

 

The opposition really need to spend however long it is to the next general election, reminding people of how each and every sitting Tory MP supported Johnson.
Whoever gets to become the next Tory leader, needs to have his or her character destroyed, through association with Johnson.
The Tories have never shied away from fighting in the gutter. It’s now time for the opposition to get down there with them and keep on exposing them for the awful, sub human party they have become.
