I never liked her,but one thing I would say,she was a leader and took no nonsense from anyone.Whether it was in her Party or from any other leaders abroad.

Exactly right. I actually liked her politics, but I appreciate some didn't. However even those who disagreed with her views I think respected her. Her party elected her to lead them, and lead them sge did. I think the oaf would struggle to lead a thirsty dog to his bowl tbh.terrya1965 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 15, 2020 7:02 pmI never liked her,but one thing I would say,she was a leader and took no nonsense from anyone.Whether it was in her Party or from any other leaders abroad.
No. No he wouldn't.

If there was an election next week the very best Johnson could hope for is a hung parliament. Indeed, several big and respected polling organisations including YouGov , MORI and Opinium have Labour ahead and many others show a considerable degradation of the Tory vote share - enough of a drop to ensure no majority in a GE. I'll concede a bounce for Labour because - let's face it a tin of beans is more popular than Corbyn ever was but Starmer is certainly starting to look like a genuine and capable opposition leader and the polls are starting to reflect this.
Also and I can't stress this enough, Boris would lose a GE simply because of Boris. He's proved to be incompetent, untruthful and weak, which in all honesty should be a surprise to absolutely no one. It's not as if he's suddenly changed his whole persona the moment he blustered and waffled his way to the PMs office now is it?
Agree with most of that. My belief though is that the Tories will ditch Johnson, hopefully in favour of Sunak, when they realise, as you think, Johnson is a liability. FFS the party did it to Thatcher who was held in much higher esteem than Johnson so I'm fairly sure they won't think twice about ditching this idiot when the shit really hits the fan.BillyDWhizz wrote: ↑Mon Nov 16, 2020 2:17 pmNo. No he wouldn't.

Sure, we may give to charity if we can afford it. But not at the expense of looking after yourself and your own first.
And the point of this is that a Cummings-less Tory party would not win an election outright if it was held tomorrow. Billy is correct, I suspect it would be a hung parliament in similar numbers to the one under May. Most voters care little that BJ has become a bumbling buffoon ruled by his penis these days or that Starmer is a better leader than Catweazle by nature of the fact that it was impossible to be worse.
Voters care only about what effects them personally. And losing your job because of coronavirus cuts will be top of the list. And not being allowed to meet friends or care for your elderly parents. A new wind farm promoted by Johnson's nonsensical bint will not make them say 'Well that makes up for it'.
There are a number of posters on here who've been touched personally by covid. I've read the posts and my heart goes out. Were it myself I would undoubtedly think the same. But for the majority, and the vast majority of the country as well, an end to the draconian restrictions on December 2nd followed by a sense of normality slowly returning can be the only thing that will save the government in the medium term. There can be a few tweeks elsewhere like a cut in foreign aid, an end to illegal immigration and proper law enforcement, not the cringing apology to the pc brigade we currently see that will gain further support, but ostensibly it's an end to the life we now endure that's similar to a one-stretch at Ford Open prison.
Cummings had run his course. Carrie Symonds has to run hers, and fucking soon too, hopefully dragging the blond oaf down with her. And as Whisky says, the Tories in the 1922 committee are a ruthless bunch. Rishi Sunak is waiting in the wings and although the fat bloke sings at the moment it can't be for much longer.
Thankfully the election won't be tomorrow. It will be 4 years away. By which time, as long as the correct decisions are made now, and they are not drawn up by Symonds, Hancock, Whitty and the other miserable cunt, then the country can drag itself out of the ICU.
