Should Boris return?

Not once, not twice but three times, and counting.
Although TM looks like a sensible choice now in hindsight.
Wow. That’s a co-incidence! We’ve just had a TezMay join this DIY site. Only made one post so far - in this thread too. Not a DIY one, a political anti-Boris post of course. You don’t happen to know that member by any chance, do you?

Well the way I see it

This misleading parliament caper enquiry

Good old British justice which is innocent till proven guilty

So Johnson gets back as PM
If the enquiry finds against he will resign

Simples

Don’t see what all the fuss is about
 
Labour has been in power since Tony Blair. That thing you call "The Conservative Party" is actually a gang of Blairites continuing his work. We have not had true conservatism for a very long time. You are most likely a conservative at heart.
Congratulations! That was the most bonkers post in here this week - and considering some of the other candidates...

I doubt that Labour would have done Brexit, or back-handed their mates (COVID contracts) then refused to investigate £29 billion pounds worth of fraud like our possibly soon to be next PM did.

Let's just agree that the current Parliamentary Conservative Party are a bunch of sleazeballs who should be barred from public office and leave it at that

He should be recalled by his constituency and fired for failure to do his job.
 
Few weeks ago Doris was the problem; now he's the solution. We're an international joke with foreign news picking up on the who lasts longest, Truss v lettuce story. The Tories tore us out of The EU to go it alone on a calamitous journey with them, when we really need another agency to check the disasterous excesses of our government. For all those who criticised the competence and integrity of The EU - take a long hard look at the so called 'government' we now have and seriously ask yourself which looks better right now? We're witnessing the death throes of not just The Tory Party, but the UK as well.

Never have I been more ashamed to be British.

Not really, everybody had the chance to vote, democracy was seen to be done it’s just the those that didn’t get things their way haven’t stopped moaning about it.
So we are not a divided country.

Ok if you say so
 
Then has to step down due to partygate investigation findings.
That does concern some of them but some say that they wont find him guilty. They might start thinking good of the country rather than stick to the rules.

The thing that gave them their majority is not Boris but their agenda. ERG effectively with help from Farage. Boris comes in by not being fond of grown up discussions. Some one commented that he has been sacked from all positions he has held for the same reason. There is some truth in that.

Mordaunt is an odd kettle of fish. Cameron called her a liar for quoting stuff Farage was putting about. Maybe she would fit in better with UKIP. Some might think great for a PM but is that the sort of person we want or need, Some Tory do think Brexit isn't working out as they thought it would and we have now effectively had 2 crisis in a short period of time which also doesn't help. These are also gobbling up money saved by leaving the EU. £20b more debt this month is an indication of how bad that is.

Cameron is another PM ousted by his party. People seem to have forgotten that.

Net result of it all is several cabals of MP's all with differing ideas of utopia and no money. C4 dug out a Tory activist and an ex senior Tory MP that does other things now discussing a unifying PM. Interesting both thought Boris would be a disaster but had few ideas. The interviewer said what they really need is a unicorn not a unifier. Much laughter and then yes that's about right if such a beast exists.

Mrs T was ousted by the 1922 committee. Too many people were aware of what she was and had done but some of that varied across the country. They found a hook for the publiic concerning one change she had made that was extremely unpopular and got elected again and up pops Major who managed again later largely down to a certain newspaper owner. Good read if some one can be bothered.

In some respects Boris is another Mrs T. People are more aware of him warts and all and things aren't going well. All they can do is point at is previous apparent successes. Even the apparent unemployment figures are not straight forwards according to the the BofE as more have shifted into the other category. Some on short hour contracts of some sort probably zero hour ones now need to work more hours - just how are they going to do that? They can only do that if their employer needs them to. Some can't for other reasons. Everything is people's fault not theirs.
 
Go ahead then, show us the official figures then.
There's loads out there.
Here's the first I found in about 5 seconds:
According to a survey carried out by British Conservative pollster Lord Ashcroft - of 12,369 people on the day of the referendum - three quarters of 18-24 year olds (73 per cent) voted to Remain. Older voters, meanwhile, largely voted to Leave, including 60 per cent of people over the age of 65.

Differences also emerged between the employed and unemployed, with the majority of people in full or part-time work voting to Remain. Those not working, or on a pension, voted primarily for Leave.

The majority of people with a formal education voted to remain In (57 per cent of those with a university education and 65 per cent of those with a higher education degree). 81 per cent of people currently in full-time education voted to Remain. Those who finished their education at secondary school level or earlier generally voted to Leave.

There's plenty more out there. :rolleyes:

And please don't insult our intelligence by asking for 'official figures'. I've already said the ballot paper did not ask for such democratic data.
The 'official' figures are the numerous analyses.

It doesn't matter what I reply, you already have your mind made up, and no amount of proof will ever persuade you to change your mind.

You don't care about the damage and the reputation of the UK in that process?
