Do You Think Boris Should Resign.

[Bobbisox1]

I don’t , Why?
Because he’s the only one who knows where he’s going, he has no majority in the HoC so he should call a GE now, we couldn’t be in a worse position than we are now, let Corbyn put his money where his mouth is, I’m not suggesting he’ll win a GE because the whole thing is a mess, everyone is sick of the last 3 .3 years, we need to get leadership like never before in our once very proud country

[dannyk13]

Definitely not.He was ill advised by the Attorney General.

[davebro]

He can't call a GE. If he resigned I guess there would have to be another Tory leadership contest & another lame duck PM ad infinitum. Labour will get a damn good hiding for all this tomfoolery at the next GE!

[spathiphyllum]

Yawn.

The whole farce is highly embarrassing. One distraction after another. One falled hurdle after another.

When is the gov going to catch it's foot on a hurdle and completely fall on it's face? Race over due to a broken ankle.

If it continues as it does expect to see a rise in frustration, lack of belief in politics which will lead to epidemic in crime. They're begging for a state of anarchy. Soon it will be. Peaceful protests will turn rotten. Anger will turn to violence. Threats will turn into promises.

Good luck to those in the spotlight.

Fight or flight? *** run.

[furrypusscat]

Most certainly not. He knows what the people voted for and he is trying his best to do just that.

Why is "leadership" defined in such a belligerent way? If Johnson wants to show real leadership then he should start showing the ability to make friends wherever he goes, rather than enemies.

[Mozz71]

I don't think I matters who is PM, everything is completely fecked up. Leave him in office, he's gonna screw up enough to resign at some point, after all, its Boris we're talking about.

[ichkeria]

He should.
He won't I suspect.
Why? Probably because he thinks he is on a "people v the establishment" trip that is going to get him elected despite what the nasty judges say. Although he's a million miles from Trump, that aspect of it makes him rather Trumpian in his approach.

If Tora is watching tho I am happy to be held to the bet :-)

[ToraToraTora]

definitely not, he is the only person so far who has been willing to carry out the will of the people. If he manages to overcome project thwart he'll be well rewarded by the people. Stick with it Boris you'll win through. The hold a GE, get a decent majority and wreak retribution the Quislings. If the poll on this site is anything to go by you'll thrash Agent Cob, then he'll get dumped!

[ToraToraTora]

ich please clarify, I say Boris will be PM on 1st Nov ok? £20 to charity right? I assume you still think he'll resign?

[Mozz71]

//If he manages to overcome project thwart he'll be well rewarded by the people.//

No he won't. The "people" have notoriously short memories.

[Old_Geezer]

Not in the slightest. He's trying to force through our democratic decision against a tide of folk who treat democracy and the public with disdain, and who will use every trap, loophole, and trick they can find to thwart the nation. Boris deserves a medal for what he has tried and put up with, and should only resign if there is something to gain from it. Presently nothing presents itself as a gain from such an action. Besides JRM doesn't care to take the job, and Farage is in a different party, so one would have to hope Boris ran again and got re-elected.

Now if you were referring to the whole of the anti-democratic opposition resigning as they have proved unfit for office, then I'd agree with that.

[ToraToraTora]

BA for OG.

[Old_Geezer]

One can not make friends with those who are determined to thwart you.
If you try you either fail or capitulate to their unreasonable demands.

[Bobbisox1]

Absolutely 3Ts

[ToraToraTora]

Jim you keep talking about making friends etc. You need common ground to do that. The HOQ is determined to thwart brexit. The PM is diametrically opposed to that. What potential for making "friends" is there?

[ToraToraTora]

give yourself a pat on the Cilla bobbi!

[naomi24]

No. Parliament has been talking about Brexit for over three years and given the opportunity will talk about it for the next three years - or thirty years. Boris should do his utmost to defy this undemocratic, disingenuous shower of charlatans that we have the misfortune to call our ‘representatives’, and do what the majority of the people in this country have said they want done. Get us out of the EU. Right out. Now.

[ToraToraTora]

Cue ZM......

[jim360]

There is an easy way to thwart Brexit, if that is indeed the wish of the Commons. And indeed it would arguably be far better, since at least it resolves the matter. Yes, they would almost certainly pay for revoking Article 50 with their careers, but it would end the economic and political uncertainty.

The problem is that you, that OG, that other Brexit supporters have decided that "No Deal" and "Brexit" are synonymous. They are not. Refusing to accept a No Deal is not remotely the same as refusing to accept Brexit.

[Bigbad]

Mrs May only made a half hearted effort and the opposition parties want to ignore the referendum result.
I’m no fan of Mr. Johnson, but he is trying to do something. Unfortunately, the wealthy seem to be able to use their vast fortunes to hire lawyers to challenge him when things look like they may be moving.

I don’t think he should resign, and I’ve said before on here that the opposition seem afraid of having a GE in case it shows that us plebs do still want to leave and would be happy with a no deal.
