    Curious if Boris survives it. /cents

    I can't believe he was elected in the first place.

    Buffoon politics are all the rage these days.

      "Ambushed"... by agressive cake (ok ... rather with a cake):

        People often sound silly when they try to defend the indefensible.

              He's toast.

              The Gray report being the final nail.

                The Gray Report can not presently be released in full because the Police are conducting investigations.

                This is, at once, both laughable and appalling.

                Things are not looking good for Boris,

                  The police investigations are likely to end in charges so Boris delaying until then will be a clear stalling tactic.

                  I doubt his party will be willing to endure the delay. Knives are being sharpened.

                    I can not imagine Johnson resigning, no matter what. I also expect he will use every privilege available as am MP and as a PM to frustrate investigations. He will fight to the bitter end and be dragged screaming from No 10. And he will be dragged from No 10, the only question is "when". Theresa May sounds really really keen to tip him out of office,

                    Yeah, I have no thoughts on his possible replacement as I don't follow UK politics that closely. My comments are from my knowledge of how Parliamentary Democracies work.

                    I agree, Boris doesn't seem the type to go quietly, but I think it's clear he must go, either now or later. The party will be feeling the hits and will have a limit to how much pain they are prepared to take in order to keep him on. If they must move on from Boris then sooner is better than later.

                    Let's hope for all the world's sake that whoever does replace him owns a comb/brush.

                    Jacob Rees-Mogg is a name that seems to pop up a lot (and he is yet another Old Etonian). I have no idea if he is suitable. Dominic Raab, foreign minister is another name that seems to pop up. I have no idea if he is suitable. The Chancellor of the Exchequer (whose name I can never remember) seems to be a sycophant of Boris and does not sound at all impressive

                  Looks like Boris is fine(d).

                      To be serious Boris does a rather nice job in supporting Ukraine, but I can't help myself suspecting cynically that it also came as a good opportunity for distraction for him...

                          Full report is out and is worse than I thought it would be. Boris does not really think he did anything wrong and will stay on thanks to his majority. We get the government we are willing to tolerate.
