Boris: Riled by Starmer!

[IT Minion]

Better PMs than Boris? Let's just compare him to the recent people in that seat.

Teresa May: Bad as she was she refused the Irish Sea border because it'd destroy the union.
Cameron: Ran the country into the ground with Austerity but smart enough not to run with Brexit once he's lit the fuse.
Gordon Brown: Probably better, but much, much less Fun.
Blair: Yes he might have launched us into unneeded wars but he was better at this PM stuff than Boris.

He's probably the least competent PM we've had in living memory.

We are in a crisis. Worst we've had in 70 years.

We don't need "fun"

We need serious, sensible, well-informed, honest, diligent, effective.

Johnson must go.

 

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

They run with the fox and and hunt with the hounds

scoundrels

just like some over the channel

That's why Marine le Penn is not President.
I know how much you admire her and would love her to be president, but it isn't going to happen.
Don't you just love it that I have a vote and you don't.
Not like in Austria where they elect ex-Nazi war criminals.

I doubt he'll go anywhere. Normalisation of deviance has kicked in and his incompetence and stupidity is now expected.

 

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

blimey politics in this country is getting as bad as in that country just across the channel

transam has even forgotten the name of "that country just across the channel"
Dementia does that to you.


You've got the what?

You probably deserve it. I see your dyslexia is still causing you problems.

Starmer rips Boris apart every week, mainstream media forget to report it though.

 

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

But you’re struggling to come up with anyone better though. Funny that.

Like presenting examples of price rises of Kellogg's breakfast cereal, sold on a Saturday morning from the 7 till 11 corner shop by Mr Jones to Miss Smith of 19 wahtsername Road, that she paid for with a card, that she was going to feed her Mother on Sunday morning, that was recommended to her by her neighbour, that has affected you personally?

 

[Dangee]

Thanks for answering DJ, IT etc. Some didn’t quite manage unfortunately.

Can't believe Boris is still using the defence that Starmer initially disagreed with laving the Europe medicine agency - he's been saying that for weeks, maybe months, now - every response, no matter what the question.

Mind you, I wouldn't be surprised is Boris leaked the wallpaper story specifically to take over the news and detract from the real problems.
We're all talking about wallpaper when we should be talking about British job losses, British covid deaths, and a general total economic ballsup.

Blair and Cameron were ok.

Brown had no charisma and was arrogant, May was ok but she screwed up the snap election. There is quite a bit to like about Boris. I thought he articulated the covid message very well. He's actually come up with some very unconservative policies.

 

[Dangee]

He’s always been a centrist. He’d never been right wing. You don’t get right wing London mayors let alone get re-elected

Brown had no charisma and was arrogant

I don't care if a PM is uncharismatic, so long as they do a good job. Overall, I think he did OK. I much prefer listening to somebody like Brown, who talks clearly, succintly, and honestly, rather than Boris who just mumbles and blusters and doesn't actually say anything. Boris seems to have 2 or 3 things practiced responses to any question, and outside of that, he quickly starts tripping over his words and just shaking his head and saying "no no no no no"

 

[Dangee]

Really DJ. If I was stuck in a room with Mark whatshisname in Wales, I think I’d top myself.
Possibly the dullest person on the face of the Earth.

 

[SirGalahad]

Would you want a charismatic Dr, Pilot or Surgeon or a competent one?

Dangee doesn't seem to answer the question.

The problem is when you tie your mast to Bojo you have to lie to yourself and others to justify your support of him. The politics of populism and stupidity.
