I think if anything is likely to lose Boris support in the country it's the unfettered arrival of illegal immigrants coming from France. That said, I don’t think anyone else would be willing to put their neck on the line by getting firmly to grips with the problem. This country is a soft touch with too many bleeding hearts pulling the strings.
they've all been booted out now sadly but I said before that Rory Stewart or even Jeremy Hung (whom i strongly dislike) would have been better choices...
This thread minus the OP for some reason ,is full of the hatred of one man,fair enough it’s a democracy and you have the right to sneer and call him but not one of you have put your head above the parapet,( well maybe one has), and said who you want to see as PM have you , Untitled named two who aren’t even back benchers, yeah that’ll work well !!!
You're quite right emmie, not one of us CAN say because not one of us knows the abilities/ambitions etc of ALL the current Tory MPs. I suspect that few of us have even met or conversed with more than one of them, so we are in no position to say who should replace Boris but it doesn't prevent us fron knowing that Boris is not doing a good job.
The Tories got an 80 majority, mainly for 2 reasons:
1. Brexit
2. Jeremy Corbyn
Neither of those will be an issue at the next election and I expect Labour to claim a lot of seats back. Johnson is useless in my opinion and was able to take advantage of the above. We'll see.
