[Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

[KZNSeagull]

Ticker up to 34

 

[Bry Nylon]

He's about to lose his rag in this committee....

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Still hanging in there

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

He just blamed everything (Pincher and other events) on drink.

Christ.

Well it's allowed many ugly people to have sex. How many kids has he fathered?

 

[A1X]

Rumours the 1922 Committee going to make a statement at 17.00 that there's a new confidence vote on Monday

 

[Audax]

Kwarteng gone.

 

[monty uk]

I wonder if Pincher is glued to this too.

 

[KZNSeagull]

BJ tells them that he will not dissolve parliament if he loses the confidence of the party.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

This is hilarious, best thing Johnson has done since being elected.

Great drama.

 

[Seagull27]

BJ rules out a general election until 2024.

Expect one to be announced next week then

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

So far as wiggings in the Head Master's study go, this must be up there with one of Johnson.B's worst.

No. Only when the headmaster has the power to sack does the wigging matter. He's loving all this.

He has been asked whether he will seek to dissolve parliament if he loses a vote of no confidence. He has specifically ruled this out. No general election even if he loses a vote of no confidence.

Oh, hand on, he's back tracking. He sees no reason for a general election.......

Let's see, then....

Touching base I expect or something else

 

[KZNSeagull]

Ooh Huw Edwards is on. Must be serious

Yes, potentially a very clever move by Zahawi.

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

Tory MP on the committee more concerned about avoiding a general election than anything else. I found that a bit tasteless. I think we need a general election. The Tories have served their purpose for the moment.

Just seen Gove arriving at No.10, waving he looked like a little school kid with his satchel. Bet he's loving it.

It looked like he winked at the press!!

No the point he was making is that there is a war on and a cost of living crises and this was not therefore the time for the PM to play games and call a snap election forcing parliament/the government to stop working.

Johnson refuses to answer what 148 + 33 is....

That wasn’t the question I heard. I don’t blame him not answering because it would have led to more ridicule when he had been grilled for nearly 2 hours and wouldn’t have been up to speed on the resignations.

How he wasn’t dripping with sweat I’ll never know, but perhaps that tells us something.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

They're waiting for Grant Shapps to turn up but he's delayed
