You expect me to play Fleetwood Mac without John McVie on it. In your Dreams.

I then in that post explained why this was - his popularity with the public in an age of personality politics meant he'd get them votes just with his funny antics. And ultimately that's what they care about. They didn't pick him because they liked him or thought he was the most capable. The...

I think there are a number of them who are in it for themselves, and the higher you go the more likely they are to be self-serving. But I also believe that there are a number (on all sides) who at least go in wanting to improve things only to find the political machine deliberatly prevents it...

Hence why I specifically said he wouldn't get the support of the MP's

Another thing is that Cummings is saying about how Johnson is totally incapable - why did you spend so much time helping him in the leadership battle then? Shows there's no integrity. I think it shows that the difference with the infighting is that Labour do it out in the open, Tories do it...

Similar was said about Johnson that he'd never get the support of the MP's so we needn't worry about him. Admittedly Gove has almost no backing with the public whereas Johnson's charisma probably swayed them as they thought in an era of personality politics he's the biggest there is and would...

Nailed on then. Get your mortgage on it people!

Not heard much about the likes of Patel, raab etc either. I guess it's because the people with the main influence were Johnson (PM), Sunak (Treasury) and Hancock (Health Minister). But I agree he'll definitely be behind a Gove coup. And then he'll be back pulling strings at No.10 and ignoring...

Another thing politics in general is good at. Finding a scapegoat to pin all the blame on, wait for the furore to die down a bit then bring them back. Like Mandelson but without the Machiavellian intelligence.

He's already toast. By the end he's going to be those little burnt crumbs you can never be asked to clean from under the grill pan that set the fire alarm off.

Also me realising how old I am now as I've got no idea what you're talking about. Something to do with the yoof of today I assume.

The fact Hunt is not considered that bad isn't great. He's still far from a great candidate - it's just how bad everybody else is. The fact he's an uber-capitalist who has written about how the NHS should be discarded and sold off in favour of a US style system should discount him from the...

In a surprise to virtually no-one.

Again, I can't believe even Johnson said the thing about "I should be like the Mayor from jaws". If he'd ever watched that film he'd know it was the incompetence of said character that led to people dying and the problem getting much bigger than it needed to be. Plus having a massive shark...

But bollotics will always be full of complete and utter Johnsons

If they're all on song I'll have more than a semi I can tell you.

Wonder how long it'll be before someone lets slip that his story for making that trip was bollocks

Oh, I don't. I'm very sceptical about the whole 'inject me with coronavirus' crap and I'm sure a lot of this is Cartman-esque in rewriting the story in his own head. But the fact that he can say this stuff and for people to think "yeah, that might be true' is damning enough in itself. If there...

But apparently it's Labour that think the public are idiots. When will people learn the opinion the Tories have of them is far, far worse. They're just as careful as possible to not say it in public.
