    Re: Vote of Cofidence in Boris Johnson tinight

    Best result for us on the left would be for the piglet to win a slim majority and stay in post. It would reach a very happy conclusion.

      There was three or four months, possibly longer, of speculation before Russia invaded and I can’t remember any leader of a western democracy who was saying there was no way it was going to happen - to make out that Johnson was some sort of lone visionary who could see what others couldn’t like the lady I mentioned was trying to do is absurd.

        Yeah totally, he certainly wasn't alone. He also didn't really have to pull parliament or the UK along with him as there was a widespread feeling of condemnation towards the Russian buildup. Just wanted to point out that Merkel and macron have been among the biggest enablers rather than opposers of putin.

            It need someone respected in all parts of the Party, which gets me leaning more and more towards Ben Wallace who apparently is well thought of by all sides amongst Tory MP's.
            Andrew Marr on LBC has also just suggested Ben Wallace if Boris falls

                I see the Boris apologists in the Tory Party, not on this board, don't fancy their chances in a general election without Boris. They are showing a lack of faith in their or their parties ability to win the next general election.

                  I don't know if there's any record of the stats, but I'd have thought that as soon as a PM has to face a vote of no confidence, then their days are numbered. In the deepest of ironies, it was probably Covid that did for him. Without it, we'd have had three or more years of Boris just doing what he does, and all that money could have been spent on the sort of things that bring in votes.

                        That sort of outcome would see some PMs deciding the game was up, but it could get to 179 and Johnson would stay on - my guess is about 120 will vote against him.

                            It'll be much more than 65 Shirley.

                              148 against!!!!!! Why are the daft Tory tw@ts cheering and banging their desks.

                              Love to see how that Dorries clown explains that she reckoned it was more or less remainers.😂😂😂😂
