The I cant believe it’s not politics thread.

Zahawi sticking the knife in after essentially accepting the role of hand of the king.

 

We are in Game of Thrones territory now. 

[Zear0]

 

 

As stated above, ouch.

Saddest point is I think it's the first time in my life that actual outright leadership is needed as PM in this country. Instead we have a total ****-fest whilst cheese is now security tagged, branded butter is £9, energy bills to top £3k, petrol fill-ups hitting £100 for an average car, public transport alternatives in crisis. Absolute chaos - as was predicted under Miliband. 

[Zear0]

The shortest cabinet appointment ever?

Didn't he threaten to resign if he wasn't appointed in his new role but he has resigned anyway 😆. Does he have to move back out of number 11?

This party is not fit to govern. Its time Labour were given a chance. They are stronger across the entire front bench and you can no longer credibly say their loony element is any more significant than the loony element of the Conservative Party.

That is absolutely brutal and top notch snakery. 

 

Also hilarious.

 

[AKCJ]

What an absolute shambles.

 

It'd be funny if it wasn't so embarrassing. The world is pointing their finger and laughing at the UK.

 

 

[BenTheFox]

HE'S STEPPING DOWN

[Dames]

He's going. I was hoping this would draw out a little longer and damage the Tory party even more but this will have to do.

[Zear0]

He's resigning. At sodding last. 

[Innovindil]

Where are you guys seeing this?

This is insane. I just hope everyone remembers how much of an utter shit show this is and how bad this Tory Party have been at our next GE.

I don’t usually post things like this and you can take it with a pinch of salt and everything, but one my friends works as an advisor in Whitehall and he texted me this morning to say that he reckons Boris Johnson’s days as PM are numbered. It could be rubbish but he doesn’t usually text me with false info, so…

You’re all very welcome!

[StanSP]

He's going!

it wouldn’t surprise me to get an announcement from him that he’s going to leave office on a specified date in the late autumn.  That means he leaves on his terms rather than seeming to be kicked out 

He should have listened to me two days ago …….
