[Politics] Tory law breakers

[pasty]

And whoomp, there it is. Nope!

Have the Tories under Boris actually won any votes in Parliament yet?

Manchester will not be amused.
How can this be fair? Labour & Lib Dems had theirs.

Played 7, lost 7

Just needs one more to go full Crystal Palace

Tory poll ratings are dropping right now according to most polls.

Brought it on themselves

But I tend to agree.

MP tells me that Johnson had an
‘angry meltdown’ in voting lobbies. Am told that @jessphillips personally challenged him as did others . MP tells me PM saw a group watching through the doors & then started jabbing his finger towards us all

He’s losing it completely.

Unsurprising really.

He's an intellectually limited, opportunist tub-thumper, who is perfectly suited to delivering witty quips and rousing soundbites from the sidelines, but put him at the helm during one of the trickiest political times in living memory and what has he got...?

He can't bluster through it when he's got a significant section of his own party (or at least recently of it) joining in the fight to defend due and proper process being followed.

He's being very badly advised - is it time to start feeling sorry for Boris?

Pretty much. A lot of nonsense is being spouted. We'd always see Parliament shut down for Conference season, and the extended prorogue was only a matter of a few days. 3 or 4, I think. So it was far more a case of grandstanding than anything else, as is recalling the MPs now. We still have the Tory Conference to go, so is Parliament going to suggest they don't have a Conference this year, or that they continue with Parliament without them?

And it's not as if, once back, they ever actually do anything positive anyway.

You won't see it shut down for the Tory conference next week

Lost the vote 306 to 289. I wonder how the 21 Tories who had their whip removed voted?

No

(But I can't just say "no". It doesn't have sufficient letters apparently)

It'll let you say "Absolutely f***ing not - the clown has brought it all upon himself" though

I'm struggling to imagine any scenario where I'll feel sorry for Boris.

It must be tough. He's got the job he wanted his entire life in the hope of being universally loved, and it's turned out everyone hates him for it and he's really, really bad at it.

He would still win an election. Brighton is not representative of the rest of the uk.

He might do, he might not do. He could very easily combust during the campaign when under scrutiny, as he has done several times in the last week alone. Plus there's plenty of skeletons in that closet...

Yup, he probably would. But that is more to do with complete unelectability of Corbyn than anything else. If Labour had a half decent leader right now, they could be wiping the floor with the tories.

Obligatory state visit to Selhurst for a game against Burnley? In with the hooded massive?

Ah, bless.

Nobody is stopping the Conservatives having their conference. In fact, it will still go ahead, as planned.

Parliament has just refused to be closed down for the duration, that is all.

Perhaps if your beloved leader hadn't just unlawfully wasted a big chunk of valuable parliamentary time, they'd have been more amenable to it?
