the whole things is a farce, Boris is struggling for 100 noms and his popularity in the tory membership has only gone one way .... downward. His popularity among wider voters has dropped off a cliff. The popularity of the tory party has dropped off a cliff. That won't be repaired by boris coming back, they crashed the economy and everyone knows it. They are laughed at at home and abroad. Anyone that seriously wants the tory party to remain in power after all this really needs to give themselves a shake
Most importantly, he is demonstrating to the world that the only thing he cares about is his own ego Last edited by bots; 22-10-2022 at 05:55 AM. |

MPs actually have no annual leave entitlement in their contracts which could mean that they have zero entitlement or 100% entitlement to leave
They have 80 days off from sitting in Parliament and most take their holidays during those times.Maybe Boris, like many people, can't afford to go away in school holidays with the cost of living crisis

yeah, mp's effectively have the same term times as schools, so have plenty time to take holiday. However, there is no requirement that they must attend the HoC unless whipped. Plenty mp's have terrible attendance records. Ann Widdecombe had one of the best attendance records

Like I said if Boris is allowed back in,then the Tory party might aswell call it a day . We literally cannot trust them. The hell Jeremy Corbyn got for still being in politics( bear in mind he was sacked & his own party members were against him) ,and he WASN'T even PM !! , Yet people wanted Corbyn gone from the face of the earth. But it's ok for Boris to break a billion rules ,laugh in our faces . Tell lies and be cunning etc . For people to now be like " awww Boris we want you back " , it really is insanity ![]() . Why he's seen as this 'loveable buffoon ' I'll never understand. |

If you fail to see any wrongdoing they ever do then that's up to you. But the conservatives have proved time and time again that it's every man for themselves,they don't give a damn about the general public. And they will continue to lie and manipulate and run this country into the ground. Truss quitting after just 44 days will go down in history as one of the most embarrassing pathetic moments in politics . Seriously the whole party is a joke . You bringing up Labour ..reminds me of when people use to slag Obama down in American politics despite the fact it was Trump who had been in power at the time for the past few years. People see what they want to see . You can't keep bringing up previous politicians whilst ignoring current very real problems. It just doesn't make sense ,and it feels like a deflection tactic . They will blindly defend and support whoever they want. Knock yourself out and continue to feel sorry for Boris all you want with rose tinted glasses . But Joey put it best when he described him as a ODIOUS CREEP . I will never like Boris after everything he's done , he has ZERO morals ...... I WOULDN'T trust him AN INCH. |

SO like i said of course Labour will be looking might fine at the moment. I've personally always been a Labour supporter ... no party is perfect 100% . Ideally Labour needs a NEW STRONG leader who will stick by their principles. If we had a general election now i think most of the country would get behind labour. At the end of the day we still live in a democracy , so somebody has to be in office whether you like them or not . |

I have lived through both Labour and Tory governments and neither have benefitted me much. I have never revealed on here which way I vote, ever, so you have no idea which party I vote for. The fact that I can't stand Johnson has nothing to do with my memory, thank you very much.

You said we were living through hell with Boris in charge .. I was simply reminding you that we’ve been through all kinds of hell each time Labour have been in power It really doesn’t matter which party is in charge . They will make terrible decisions, mess up the economy , rob the taxpayers blind .. it’s what they all do .. time after time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

I'm disappointed Penny isn't making any headway.
![]() We can only hope Sunak gets in, as the prospect of Boris in again is horrific. He's only gonne do something wrong in the first week.And then a snowball of mistakes... Madness. |

That's why the conservatives won't want an election.

Agreed. I don't think Starmer is a strong leader....but people are now so sick of the Tories Labour will win by a landslide if there was election tomorrow, regardless of their leader.

no, not anything, the economy is not going to improve, times are going to be tough. If you look at any party in power over the last 40 years, during bad economic times, they are out at the next election.
