Ok I'm Doing A U Turn.......

[ToraToraTora]

BRING BACK BORIS! Penny is still my choice of the rest but it now seems a real possibility that Boris could return. He's the only real big hitter and the party and the country need him back.

You could always get £20 on the nose with the AB Bookie?!

Rather than concern yourself with my reputation, fatticusinch, concentrate in your own and the impression you’re making here. ;o)

'We need some stability, let's bring back Boris' I've heard it said.

Gawd elp us. Although it might make a few people's wet dreams come true, the return of BJ will not bring stability. Half of his own MPs can't stand him.

Fatti; // You really ought to stop this cherry-picking just because you admire a serial liar and adulterer, it makes you look increasingly foolish.//

There's a very good book just out by Andrew Doyle in which you feature quite a lot, it's called, 'The New Puritans'

khandro and naomi seem to have deliberately ignored the words “crucial first few weeks”… i am sure he took it seriously after he personally got it

Lol, same selective memory as ever, bless you, the ostrich impression continues.

[naomi24]

Tomus, grown ups who have a job to do rise above personal likes and dislikes. People who hate each other run successful businesses together because they are intelligent enough to understand that petty mindedness is destructive - and that’s exactly what the people of this country need to grasp. The party is in a mess, the country is leaderless, and a random ‘also ran’ won’t cure it.

[naomi24]

Untitled, I didn’t deliberately ignore it. I usually copy and paste the but I want to respond to but I’m typing on my phone so I can’t. That’s how I missed it I expect. Sorry.

[Untitled]

but that’s the problem… a lot of boris johnson’s popularity is based on whether people find him personally likeable (and he is likeable) rather than on whether he is a good prime minister

[Untitled]

it’s ok naomi it happens

[naomi24]

Untitled, I think he was a good Prime Minister and a strong one. And yes, people do like him because he’s a big character. We’ve seen what happens when the other sort are promoted above their station and personally I don’t want to see that happen again. I want this country to repair and thrive - and it’s not going to do that with an untested no hoper at the helm.

[Untitled]

fair enough!

According to ITV News, the Privileges Committee has got him by the short and curlies:

[naomi24]

I was just about ready to throw in the towel with Truss at the helm and no one of much consequence waiting in the wings. I felt it was utterly hopeless. In fact I said here I could see little option but to have a general election, but with Boris’s re-emergence hope springs eternal - and I think that’s true for a lot of people.

[naomi24]

Jim, that’s not only sad, it’s crazy. This country is its own worst enemy.

[burlyshirley1]

Does anybody know how soon this will all be sorted ?

[JimF]

At this stage, I'd believe anything...

[THECORBYLOON]

Why is it crazy?

[naomi24]

Damning new evidence, Shirley. How about that - and today of all days too. What a coincidence.

[naomi24]

Because it’s trumped up nonsense, Corby.
