Tobias Ellwood would be my ideal candidate but I dont think he wants the job. The Tory's are tarnished with Way to much sleaze I feel we are at a crossroads in politics and it's system we need fresh wind fresh direction and fresh minds at the helm. What do we have to loose change comes when people change habbits

The kids will be paying for this and their kids. It's aboherrent as Blair's knighthood.

"Watching the news about Boris Johnston's parties while we were in lockdown, should he resign? I say yes, what do you think fellow fabbers"

No.He should be sacked.

He should not be allowed to resign.

From the point he had the frigging knees up in May he should have to pay back what ever wages he earned also.

Twice, this absolute tosser has had a knees up while people Died alone in hospital and their loved ones watched on freaking video call.

One rule for them, one rule for every unworthy us that are below him obviously.

So an absolute resounding no should he have the chance to resign. He should also be charged with what ever they need to charge him with and on top, give him the maximum fine for breaking the laws or rules that he set out.

He should be made an example of and hung out to dry. X x x

You can impeach a prime minister on grounds of treason not just in the states it's much harder to do here but the justification is there. It's extremely unlikely they will. just the preffered outcome I'd like instead of resignation but resignation will have to do.

When he was confronted on the news about the party, he actually smirked while answering. That's how little he cares about rules or laws. And how little he cares about the sacrifces so many people made.

So, yes, I'm sure he'll be even worse if he gets away with all this.

More Politics than Virus but he should have resigned long, long ago.

It was clear long, long before this that he and the people left in his party after the purge are incompetent, shameless liars.

Yet, he has been supported by many in the country and in the forums.

If this is the measure of the party leadership then why are any of their big statements from Brexit to levelling up believable?

Also, if a party lies brazenly again and again and the population supports them regardless, is their anything that any opposition can do? Is it really that they are weak or is it that those who have invested so heavily in BoJo that they cannot admit such a huge error of judgement?

Who will admit that they were mistaken in voting the way that they did?

No we don't need the anxiety a new face will cause yet in this pandemic, lots and lots of people need him atm and will follow him regardless of his behaviour, misplaced trust is very common and a known face is a comfort.

If a police investigation is held and he is found to have broken the law then he absolutely should be penalised in the correct way by the police

He should resign, as any decent leader would have done long ago. But his party is stacked with as good as criminals who have plundered public money by the £billions. What matters only for them is power and money - theirs.

It is sickening to see public office brought into such disrepute, where fraud is the norm.

Laughing at the ordinary plebs who vote for them and don't care.

Boris needs to go.

On PMQS today he will say the usual bullshit about waiting for Sue Grey report to tell the public if he was at the party.

The people at the party also need to be fired and everyone needs to be fined just like Joe Public did.

Will the people that got fined be able to get their money back if BoJo gets found out he was at a party and does not get a fine?

In short yeah he should.

This pandemic has cost lives, jobs, financial pressures for millions, businesses. It’s caused untold amounts of difficulties for millions of people and he went with “do as I say not as I do” and it’s an utter disgrace. However, who do we get, we get another one of his pals that inevitably sticks him in a top job anyway.

From top to bottom, the whole entire government is broken and we essentially just get to choose the lesser of the idiots!

The opposition were flattened in the run up to 2016

Cummings knew whoever flew the flag for Brexit stood a chance of turning the labour strongholds blue in the next election, a great incentive for any wannabe PM.

They needed an entertainer, a thick skin, a publicly recognisable stooge to deliver the lies and it worked all the way up until the day Cummings was dethroned by the puppet.

Boris's world has crumbled slowly and steadily since the puppet master was sacked, this latest episode was engineered from his hands.

Removing him is a must but not under the control of Rees-Mogg.

His rise to power was always going to be in jeopardy once his usefulness had been consumed by Brexit strategists, the party and the public.

The public turned a blind eye more than once to achieve their desired outcomes and so did the party. The majority of people in this country are acting like hypocrites over this, they knew he was lying but it was lies they wanted to hear.

If any of the politicians with all the information and advice they have to hand about this 'deadly virus' decide to act as normal and without caution then it shows it's nothing to worry about. From the start they have shown no personal concern and yet constantly moved the goal posts for every one else to comply resulting in vast wealth for themselves and friends.

It's like when on a plane and there seems to be a problem. If the stewards are calm then nothing to worry about. If they panic then you should.

I'm sure if there was a real health worry they'd all be addressing us from the safety of their bunkers.

Apart from the obvious increase in the last two years in the death rates, the highest two years post 1945 and the 1.3 estimated people living with long covid which will rise you've mostly ignored the gross stupidity of a man who caught covid and ended up in an ICU who then thought it ok to ignore the rules at the time ..

"Apart from the obvious increase in the last two years in the death rates, the highest two years post 1945"

But that's not taking into account the population growth. If you look at the UK deaths per 100,000 you'll see there's been many years where the death rate has been higher.

If your talking about population growth then you have to include how many die per year..

It's around 640 or so thousand every year,the ONS has the figures for the deaths over and above the average five years which is how they look at such things..

"I don't care. You have to expect politicians to be dishonest, it's almost part of the job description.

No, you shouldn't. That is why we have the politicians that we do.

If lies, in fact brazen lies, are electorally unpunished then we get exactly what we deserve.

If there are no alternatives then that says a lot about the quality of the party that was elected.

No, I do not think that the same can be said of the other parties. There is at the very least some modicum of earnestness on them. For whatever reason this has no value to the country that we live in today."

I remember 'New Labour' saying they wouldn't put up taxes. The first thing Gordon Brown did was to tax private-sector pensions.

The Slogan was a load of tosh as was proven many times over at the time but as normal in the Uk, we get popularism overtaking pragmatism when it comes time for the electorate to vote. Our simple majority wins approach doesnt help...just gives us a cyclical system whereby we plebs elect one party g8ve them a few years to screw up then elect the other lunatucs to screw us up for a few years then back again...

Don't like Boris but all this is is all political smoke and mirrors.

Labour party have no policies, strategies, how to rebuild economy or how to run the country. Boris has enemies in the media, over brexit who won't let it go, MPs who don't like his environmental policies. Boris has implemented more socialist policies than the labour party have ever did to the anger of many conservatives.

Whether he goes or stays, what is done is done you can't change it. All that will happen if he goes he'll just be replaced by by someone more sympathetic towards one group or other, bremoaners or anti environmentalists. There is another up to to 3 years of conservatives. Couple of months as things start to return to relative normally this will all be forgotten, people conveniently forget when it suits.

Labour will still have no policies and long-term views. If by some miracle they get in at next election they can spend the next 5 years blaming the shit state on the conservatives and not do anything about it

And peoples will still be claiming how unfair life is.

After what has happened, the denials, the investigations , then caught red handed and still not will not resign clinging to power is a really bad show for the leader of our country.

Hoping that it blows over and at this time no police involvement.

After that I wouldn't listen to another word he said, to me he has no authority, he is two faced and as such should resign, so that whoever takes office would have some credibility and be able to lead.

" Boris has implemented more socialist policies than the labour party have ever did to the anger of many conservatives.

"

He really hasn't. Being forced to spend money to support a country during a pandemic is not socialism.

Taxes on the rich have not gone up. Corporation tax has not gone up.

Spending on the NHS has not gone up in real terms.

Don't tell me, you buy the "levelling up" nonsense...

Absolutely yes he should resign, we need to show accountability!!!!! He broke the rules and lied and cheated to cover his tracks ! What are we teaching youngsters if the leader of our country can behave in such away !! If the Tories have any sense (questionable) they will oust him and make it an example or come next election alot of angry people will be voting for the opposing parties purely out of anger and the feeling of betrayl

"Don't like Boris but all this is is all political smoke and mirrors.

Labour party have no policies, strategies, how to rebuild economy or how to run the country. Boris has enemies in the media, over brexit who won't let it go, MPs who don't like his environmental policies. Boris has implemented more socialist policies than the labour party have ever did to the anger of many conservatives.

Whether he goes or stays, what is done is done you can't change it. All that will happen if he goes he'll just be replaced by by someone more sympathetic towards one group or other, bremoaners or anti environmentalists. There is another up to to 3 years of conservatives. Couple of months as things start to return to relative normally this will all be forgotten, people conveniently forget when it suits.

Labour will still have no policies and long-term views. If by some miracle they get in at next election they can spend the next 5 years blaming the shit state on the conservatives and not do anything about it

And peoples will still be claiming how unfair life is."

It's totally irrelevant how poor the opposition are in this issue, fact is he's overseen a culture of complete disregard for the very rules he enacted which the vast majority abided by..

And broken the law that led to others being fined, if you repeatedly demonstrate that you believe yourself to be above the rules that apply to all then expect a comeback..

And it will come from his fellow conservatives, only they if they act before the next GE can remove him..

Yes there have been too many indiscretions from Boris and chums.

I do wonder what the other parties have done as well. I’m sure they have had their own parties(business meetings) etc just they didn’t have a Dominic Cummings.

One hundred percent this. We were talking about this at work today. Huge scandals like Thatcher and the Belgrano, Miners Strike, 11 years at the top. Bliar and the Iraq war, 10 years at the top. Johnson and cheese and wine, on a cliff edge. Definitely people seem to be much more aware these last few years.

Some Remainers think that people voted Leave from a dislike of foreigners...and so they would naturally, in that case, think it hypocritical for a Leaver to live in Spain.

But the case for Brexit wasn't about that...that is a Remainer lie. It was about ending the situation in which 67% of our laws were being made in Brussels...by people we voters couldn't touch.

I really think many Remainers didn't understand even the most fundamental issues in the referendum.

They were told many lies: that the economy would collapse, that house prices would collapse, that Britain wouldn't be able to get pharmaceuticals, that wars would start.

But the £350m on the side of the bus was correct (actually an understatement). The claim that it was misleading was yet another lie by the predominantly Remain political class which wanted to protect its privileges

You can still travel easily...barring coronavirus complications.

Why do you think you should just be able to go to a third country and live/work? You don't just turn up in America and demand to stay, do you? Or Japan? India? Argentina?

You can still visit Spain for up to 6 months a year. You can ask to live there...but that will be up to Spain as it is in reverse.

And we now have democracy back. In the old EU days we had to tolerate laws being made abroad by people you couldn't sack... which was why General Elections had become meaningless. That's a priceless power that people died for at Peterloo.

Look also at wages for the poor sods such as drivers, leisure and hospitality staff...their wages had previously been forced down by EU 'freedom of movement'.

Also not important that we can control immigration to give relief to workers whose wages have been forced down by the EU? Or that housing should be put out of reach of young people?

We were always able to make those laws.

We are also now able to make laws to reduce judicial independence and for politicians to overrule judges' decisions.

The EU did not "force down" any wages. Freedom of movement made more skilled and unskilled workers available. As it turns out, we do not have enough of either. Wages and costs may go up but we will be producing and earning less as a country as a consequence.

We could have limited immigration numbers when the Eastern European countries joined but chose not to of our own accord.

Housing is more in reach of young people now than it ever has been. There is a spike in house prices and second (unoccupied) homes. We have also failed to build enough affordable housing at all because councils have no money and developers don't want to. We sold off most of what we had.

All completely independent of the EU.

Rest of the world immigration is increasing but at more cost to employers.

Stop blaming other people. Our government and country have been using the EU as an excuse for its failures for decades and even after we have allegedly left are still blaming it.

The current government, Prime Minister and Cabinet display that behaviour very clearly. Nothing at all is their responsibility...and no not all politicians were or are the same. This group are far, far worse on this respect because this is how they got power and have never been punished for it. There are no consequences for failure, as demonstrated by the bankers in 2008.

It’s who is in control that is important, not where the control is.

Putting aside your nonsensical assertion that membership of the EU implies we had no control over UK laws and immigration, or that non membership will lead to any meaningful improvement in economic prospects for UK citizens, the Conservatives have been in power in this country for the majority of the last 100 years.

As most social and economic benefits for the UK have happened under Labour administrations, there is little evidence that ‘sovereignty’, as you imagine it, is of any benefit to us whatsoever.

Ceding the entire control of the nation to EU autocrats would only benefit us, as a whole, when the historical evidence is considered. And our entire lack of economic power in comparison to that of our largest trading partner now means we will be ceding control to them far more as a non-member than we ever did as a member of the EU, when we had one of the most powerful seats at the table.

Leavers threw away the UK’s future…unfortunately we all have to live off the crumbs.

The EU regulations are usually what is banded about as EU laws. Most of the regulations were basically technical administration and a lot of them didn't actually apply to us, the Uk isn't an olive producer as an example and because of the union a there was a need for joined up trade measures.

EU laws did play a big part in employee rights, free movement of workers and trade. they didn't have much to do if anything in crime, health, defence etc.

The EU did not "force down" any wages. Freedom of movement made more skilled and unskilled workers available. As it turns out, we do not have enough of either. Wages and costs may go up but we will be producing and earning less as a country as a consequence.

We could have limited immigration numbers when the Eastern European countries joined but chose not to of our own accord.

Housing is more in reach of young people now than it ever has been. There is a spike in house prices and second (unoccupied) homes. We have also failed to build enough affordable housing at all because councils have no money and developers don't want to. We sold off most of what we had.

All completely independent of the EU.

Rest of the world immigration is increasing but at more cost to employers.

Stop blaming other people. Our government and country have been using the EU as an excuse for its failures for decades and even after we have allegedly left are still blaming it.

The current government, Prime Minister and Cabinet display that behaviour very clearly. Nothing at all is their responsibility...and no not all politicians were or are the same. This group are far, far worse on this respect because this is how they got power and have never been punished for it. There are no consequences for failure, as demonstrated by the bankers in 2008."

No, we weren't able to make those laws in the EU. Historically, we could... but since we gave away sovereignty we have had to implement EU Directives.

Those directives took the effect of British law, but we had no alternative other than to implement them, although we had the right to ask the EU to vary them...requests that were generally refused.

We were not ruling ourselves and our voters couldn't touch Directives.

These Directives, according to the Commons Library, made up almost 70% of UK law.

These Directives and the powers agreed in treaties affected jobs, economic activity, wages, immigration, housing, cars, roads, energy prices, prices in the shops via the Customs Union Common External Tariff, imports, exports, privatisation, agriculture, fisheries etc etc.

Increasingly foreign policy was coming within their remit. National armies, air forces etc are to be handed over to a planned EU Army... after decades of lies.

Mass immigration, caused by the EU's 'freedom of movement' put downward pressure on wages. We are now seeing that unwind in the form of pay rises for workers.

Many people clearly don't understand how the EU stole our power as voters...but that's what was happening

Spain, Lancs


"The cat is out of the bag. Fanatical Remainer Lord Adonis (cruelly named!) has Tweeted: 'Boris goes, Brexit goes'.

Did anyone really believe that the other parties were really angry about drinks parties nearly two years ago?

It's all about bitterness around how we voted 6 years ago. They've been itching to ignore our votes for 6 years

You live (part time ?)in Spain but voted leave?

Yes. Why not? What do you think the issues were at the referendum? it was a bit dumb as it clearly impacts / hinders Brits in terms of travel or residency in Europe.

I’m not too sure now what the issues were. We were certainly sold a series of lies. Some Remainers think that people voted Leave from a dislike of foreigners...and so they would naturally, in that case, think it hypocritical for a Leaver to live in Spain.

But the case for Brexit wasn't about that...that is a Remainer lie. It was about ending the situation in which 67% of our laws were being made in Brussels...by people we voters couldn't touch.

I really think many Remainers didn't understand even the most fundamental issues in the referendum.

They were told many lies: that the economy would collapse, that house prices would collapse, that Britain wouldn't be able to get pharmaceuticals, that wars would start.

But the £350m on the side of the bus was correct (actually an understatement). The claim that it was misleading was yet another lie by the predominantly Remain political class which wanted to protect its privileges

Wars would start? Come on. It’s taken a work and travel privilege away from my kids , made it tougher for me to travel and stop in Europe and really hasn’t delivered a single benefit.

You can still travel easily...barring coronavirus complications.

Why do you think you should just be able to go to a third country and live/work? You don't just turn up in America and demand to stay, do you? Or Japan? India? Argentina?

You can still visit Spain for up to 6 months a year. You can ask to live there...but that will be up to Spain as it is in reverse.

And we now have democracy back. In the old EU days we had to tolerate laws being made abroad by people you couldn't sack... which was why General Elections had become meaningless. That's a priceless power that people died for at Peterloo.

Look also at wages for the poor sods such as drivers, leisure and hospitality staff...their wages had previously been forced down by EU 'freedom of movement'.

There's LOTS more

The EU regulations are usually what is banded about as EU laws. Most of the regulations were basically technical administration and a lot of them didn't actually apply to us, the Uk isn't an olive producer as an example and because of the union a there was a need for joined up trade measures.

EU laws did play a big part in employee rights, free movement of workers and trade. they didn't have much to do if anything in crime, health, defence etc."

The EU economic model has destroyed millions of jobs and weakened workers in the workplace. The EU has helped employers treat workers appallingly by creating, via freedom of movement, a huge pool of cheap labour

You have a very clear sovereignty bias, that makes it hard to be have conversation from a middle ground.

Workers in huge numbers you could say are unskilled so what makes those skills worth more money?

Lets see if we can discuss this from the statement perspective and not from a sovereignty bias.

Yes and no. The EU's economic imbecility started way before the rise of China.

It has gone from over 30% or world economic activity in the 1980s to 16.5% a few years ago. It will be even lower now.

It's economic growth lags behind every other continent on the planet. Including Antarctica

What you call, puzzlingly, 'sovereignty bias' is actually a belief that we elect people to enact laws. If they make a mess of it we can sack them and elect other people.

It's called democracy. Yes, I support it. Unlike the Remainers who have been itching to overturn the voters' verdict since 2016

Of course, the EU is democratic, and we voted for our representatives in the EU, the same way we vote for our MPs in the UK. And they made our laws.

And as we’ve witnessed the Tories make a continual mess of our country, and hardly ever get sacked so we can elect other people as a consequence, which calls into question the entire efficacy of the broken system you are choosing to call democracy.

When you read the continual factual errors you continue to make about this it’s no surprise at all that people say Leavers didn’t know what they were voting for. You can’t seem to demonstrate the most basic understanding of the system you criticise.
