What does that actually mean, it's obviously a play on shit or bust, so is Rees-Mogg saying if Johnson doesn't become leader, the party goes bust, or is the the country. Boris or Penny?

Johnson had 50+ this morning. Just ahead of Sunak, and way ahead of Mordaunt. If she doesn't make the 100, she could make or break by instructing her followers to go one way or the other. I think if Johnson makes the final two, he will win it. Which I can't actually fvcking believe I'm writing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We barely talk politics, but I know he doesn't really follow it closely... He just "is" a Conservative voter and won't be swayed. There's no way he'd vote Labour I think largely because all of our other shared mates are raging lefties. He's purched himself on his hill and that's it. He won't be proven wrong. I partly think he does it just to be antagonistic TBH. Are you mates with my Dad? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vacamion Posted 21 October 2022 Share Posted 21 October 2022 (edited) As if the general background noise of braying Etonians sending the country down the shitepipe whilst the poor suffer wasn't already a massive recruiting sergeant for Scottish independence, the return of Boris Johnson, who is loathed even by the elected Tories up here, and especially by their leader Douglas Ross, would add points to the separatist vote. I posted the day after the Brexit referendum outcome that it would lead to an independent Scotland and a United Ireland. Events since, and especially recent events, haven't disabused me of that view.

I have absolutely no gripe with migration to this country, but it needs to be controlled, surely. Not sure whether either came from Kenya, Uganda or the Asian subcontinent. Probably born here. There was no vetting involved in those who got kicked out of Kenya and Uganda - the government of the time saw the absolute moral, legal and humanitarian necessity of offering a home to these people. Many Tories (and possibly Labour politicians thought it) spoke out against allowing it. That the two should be so rabidly against immigration just shows the inherent nimbyism of unconscious human instincts. Parents/grandparents given sanctuary but offspring dead set against anyone else being allowed succour. It's just so hypocritical - Americans can just fly in and settle - 250k of them. East European oligarchs and mobsters (can one distinguish between them?), Saudi despots and Nigerian ne'r do wells. One rule for the rich and another for the desperate. No, f**k 'em. This is the unacceptable face of Brexit isolationism - a vain attempt to hold back a gentle tide. Truss & Kwarteng showed what they thought of the millions of us now in the sh1t because of no fault of our own. Make life easier still for the rich, the financiers and big business and stuff the rest. Corbyn would have made those b'stards jump. These entitled modern conservatives are incompetent and driven by greed, envy and a remarkable streak of mean. Personally I feel sorry for those who feel that getting here means they're somehow better off. Safe maybe, but not much else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxdiamond Posted 21 October 2022 Share Posted 21 October 2022 Let us not mess about here. If Johnson gets back in and voters lap it up then it proves once and for all what a bunch of mugs we have among us. I know the Tory party are a rabble but it seems a lot of our people are happy to be led by them despite who they elect. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
