[Politics] Johnson & Farage a 'Dream team' come-back together

Dear Third World
The United Kingdom would be grateful if you would accept us as a member. We believe we meet all the criteria, especially the one requiring a completely useless government and utterly stupid leaders.

Love

Britain

PS. We have stopped using the "Great" part of our name, sine we clearly aren't that any more.

Great is geographical not political and always has been.

Yes, I know what you meant.

Love this quote from the Independent article above:-

"He is using the town to add lustre and glamour to his own shattered life"

 

[A1X]

So how does Boris Johnson become PM given he’s not an MP or a Lord, or has that part been glossed over?

 

[peterward]

Clickbait for the frothy mouthed.

It's a Daily Mail little Englander wet dream.

No place in reality

 

[abc]

if being on TV for a month can sway so much of the public, then we need better quality politicans to go up against and counter his views.

Yes, we all know about NSC's loathing of Johnson, Farage, Brexit, the Tories, the government, their country, not my King Charles, etc. But third world? Get a grip.

Should probably drop the "United" from "United Kingdom" too (and the US should too)

Surely he'd still have the Partygate report to contend with. He avoided a vote because he resigned but if he came back I'm sure the report would be subject to a vote which would see him subject to a ban from Parliament of 90 days and therefore subject to recall vote. He would of course be parachuted in to a 'safe' seat but that would be no guarantee. The good news about this is that it only continues to highlight the divisions in the Tory party.

 

[lawros left foot]

Have the frothing at the mouth wing of the Tory party forgotten the by election results,and for that matter, the local election results achieved under a Johnson’s watch.

Tiverton and Honiton Lib Dem gain.
Wakefield Labour gain
North Shropshire Lib Dem gain
Chesham and Amersham Liv Dem gain.

Local elections lost nearly 500 council seats


He’s not really that great an electoral asset is he.

Good point....

England, plus the other little hanger-on countries who nobody really cares about.......... etc etc etc.

 

[el punal]

You actually believe that horseshit? More chance of Garry Glitter playing the next Bond

Probably more appropriate to play a Bond villain - Blowfred?

 

[clapham_gull]

Ant and Dec have facilitated the 'jungle- washing' of Farage. Thanks to them he is is now back in the political game. As Honorary President and founder of Reform UK he will - once again - influence a major national vote without even being accountable to the electorate.

As if they select the celebrities....

What's wrong with being a third-world country anyway? Rwanda is GREAT, right?

BTW, just in case you were thinking that NSC isn't representative of the broader picture...

 

[dazzer6666]

We’re gonna need a bigger ditch.

….or more power woodchipper

I don't think it's a particular NSC 'thing'.

I would have thought, given what has become blindingly obvious about all of them over the last few years, that your continued position as a Farage/Brexit/Johnson cheerleader is proving pretty difficult to justify in most situations these days

Oh… Come on come on.

They've already put Cameron in. There is no constitutional barrier to make Lord Boris of Burnley and he could be in.

This lot could try anything

You have to be an MP to be PM otherwise you can't sit in the house of commons. Different rules for ministers I believe.
