scottsdad Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 He's been reselected for Uxbridge. In 2019 he had a 7000 seat majority only. Surely he risks a "Portillo moment"? That would be lovely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkieRR Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I bet loads of 'em love him there, though. 'Yes, Boris got us through Covid, delivered Brexit, speaks his mind, says what a lot of people are thinking, tells those Jocks what's what. Yes, he's a bit of a lad, you know, but sexual incontinence is only wrong if you're working class, I'll be voting for him, and so will the wife if she knows what's good for her...' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be lovely. Pretty sure that, even if the current General Election projections somehow came to pass in 2025, Uxbridge will still end up one of those curious anomalies where the incumbent maintains or increases their majority. "Britain Trump" has become a figurehead for privilege and entitlement; his vote share will hold up among the demographic that believes people are born to lead, and it's important that the lower orders know their place. There's a worrying number of them, as it turns out. Edit: also, Sexual Incontinence will be the name of my new Motown tribute band; get your requests in early for the annual P&B soup 'n' bingo evening.

Billy Jean King Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) So his defence is now yes I did mislead parliament but it wasn't intentional or reckless because so far un-naned "advisors" told him to say what he did. As shite excuses go that's like something a 4yo accused of swearing might come up with. FFS HE WAS AT THE PARTY'S IN QUESTION yet that is being totally overlooked. Oh and the old classic "if it so obviously breaking rules why were so many other (un-named) people there too. So if I'm going to be taken down by this I'm taking plenty more with me seems to be the very thinly veiled threat.

sparky88 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Report almost copy and pastes over and over again the defence that it was really really busy in 10 downing Street so really hard to social distance, unlike other workplaces. Heard it all before. Its all shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasnt even thinly veiled - to be honest, if I was asked to write a "classic Bojo excuse" for this shambles, it would have gone; Nobody told me that what I did was wrong Other people did it too Its like the excuses a teenager would come out with in front of a head teacher, and lets be honest, thats all this fuckwit is - an overgrown, overpromoted teenager. I can only hope that the committee throws him under the bus, that his constituency runs over his corpse several times, and we never have to endure the utter kunt in public life ever again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 It'll go to a free vote in the HoC I think, and no way are 80 Tories going to vote to ban him for long enough for a constituency recall. Slapped wrist and he'll be back conspiring against Sunak. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Just want to record that EVEN in the context of the last few years, EVEN given all we know about Boris and the Tories..... Despite ALL of that, it's still absolutely fucking insane, to watch someone acting in their capacity as elected representative of the people, who job is allegedly to serve those people and uphold at least some standards/integrity, to be standing up and attempting to bluff his way out of this. It's genuinely mind boggling and IMO can't be brushed aside with "aye well you know what the tories are like". We are breaking new ground here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btb Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 If the "I'm stupid, I am" defence that BJ has been reduced to was believed then his worth as an after dinner speaker would be negligible, everyone knows that he knew all along but will Tory MPs admit to it cos that would mean that they knew it was a lie all along too - probably not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a complete idiot would agree to eat soup made by a mushroom-wielding lunatic from the internet. Thankfully there are plenty of us - sounds great, looking forward to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
