Quite interesting that old gouty fingers is in the news today about receiving bags of cash from Qatar.  There is nothing much in there (at this stage) just the fact cash was used "in carry bags".

Just thinking about his recent criticism of the government and the general tactics of Johnson.

I do worry he's soaking up so much ill-will, the second he's gone all the wobblers will happily vote Tory again. Although the cost of living stuff might put a stop to that for a bit.

Yes very likely.

Hopefully Novara etc will remind the wobblers about how the remaining Tories used to defend Johnson. I think a lot of Tory MPs and ministers will try and pretend they never supported Johnson once he goes.

Tory voters don't generally watch novara

I think there needs to be a conversation about enablers on both sides of the aisle.  Johnson has waved the sticky finger of corruption in our faces, now we need to publicly examine everyone's hands.  We don't need a sin-eater to take the stank off of the whole rotten gang.  Tory, Labour, all of 'em, they all need nit-combing.

Ask simple questions like why are these dodgy cunts allowed to work for outside interestsWhy, if the price of that is enabling the wholesale corruption of our lives.  And it always, always, is.  Are we fucking mad?

I always saw him as a Weetabix in a suit.

QuoteAsked if there was any matter of principle he would consider resigning over, he said if he had to abandon Ukraine because it became too difficult or the costs were too great, he would quit

That's the kind of friend you need, innit.  "Sorry, too difficult now; byeee"

Do the wobblers engage with things like Novara?  Everyone I've spoken to outside our echo chamber - and I'm talking about people who think they are left of the political centre - thinks Novara is a bunch of naive lefty students who wrongly supported Corbyn in the football match.

That is such a great photo for active thinking.

How many terms has he already done?

Fambo Number Mive

Yes, you and Martin are right, I withdraw the comment. I don't know who will stop the Tories rewriting history once Johnson goes, I suppose anyone who knows a wobbly needs to remind then.

They will just want someone one stable, "competent" but not radical.  Still the case that a lot of people are comfortablish but I reckon it is starting to dawn on these folk that things could get a lot worse.  This is where Starmers game could actually work, these people will vote Lib Dem and Starmer just needs to be dull enough to squeak through as the meh candidate.

I've got a fiver on Penny Mordaunt, she will give them good copy if he goes and will win back lots of votes (largely because she has kept herself uncontaminated).

I'd love it if there was one character in Lord of the Rings who always said "Mordaunt", and nobody ever corrected them.

I'd prefer it if Sir Ian McKellen kicked them really hard up the arse.

Sounds like some olden timey thing.

Sounds like a kind of gateaux to me.  One that has coins inserted into it like a Christmas pudding.

This was put up 2 weeks ago by Led By Donkeys; not sure if it has appeared in this thread yet.  Nothing new in it but interesting to see it all in one place.  I'm surprised it didn't get more coverage:
