Keith Houchen Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I can see Johnson calling an election. He will threaten MPs to back him or he will take the whole ship down with him. He knows they’re as self serving as he is and many tories will lose their gravy train if an election is called, so they’ll back him. If they don’t, he will ensure they lose their jobs. It’s also worth remembering these 31 cunts who quit didn’t do so because they learned about Chris Pincher and his serial predatory behaviour, they quit because you found out about it   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, they'd lose 100+ seats but there's no guarantee they'd be out of power if he went that route.  Also:  Edited July 6, 2022 by 69MeDon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallicks Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 They need a 2/3 parliamentary majority to dissolve parliament early, if I remember rightly. Potential of cross-party shenanigans to vote it down and sabotage him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can blame Tory MPs for circumventing democracy if they lose and his supporters will lap it up because it paints them as victims of the elite. He is their boy, you want your boy in charge but the establishment don’t. You’ve been hard done by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Duke Posted July 6, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted July 6, 2022 (edited) A group of cabinet ministers are meeting with Boris telling him to resign. Amongst that group is Nadhim Zahawi, which is pretty hilarious.  Boris's plan of "Don't worry, we've got Asians for the money stuff" has bit him on the backside.   Edited July 6, 2022 by Duke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

69MeDon Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 The counter on BBC News has gone up by four just in the last half hour that I've been watching. I don't think I've ever seen anything like this. He can't last - either he resigns or we're going to the polls, surely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Duke Posted July 6, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted July 6, 2022 Kit Malthouse has apparently joined the delegation. He's been serving under him since he was mayor so that's fairly significant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
