John Gentleman Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 (edited) The New York Times (James Butler) nails him... ".....That should be concerning enough. But given Britain’s political system — which relies for its maintenance on the character and disposition of the prime minister — it carries even graver import. Mr. Johnson, whose laziness is proverbial and opportunism legendary, is a man well-practiced in deceit, a pander willing to tickle the prejudices of his audience for easy gain. His personal life is incontinent, his public record inconsequential." https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/22/opinion/boris-johnson-prime-minister-britain.html?action=click&module=Opinion&pgtype=Homepage Edited July 22, 2019 by John Gentleman Inclusion of hyperlink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 The rancid truth is that most of the current pool of cabinet ministers and junior ministers, etc will know full well what Johnson is snd would rather it wasn't necessary for him to be there in any way, yet the vast majority of them will set it aside in order to retain or gain personal positions. Collective cabinet responsibility will be severely tested to breaking point very quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cade Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Swinson talks a good game but her voting record is horrific.
