Is Johnson toast this time? I think he is. Possibly definitely. Anyway, great to see all these brave honourable tory politicians stand up and draw a line in the sand. Nobody can be proven to be an amoralistic, inveterate liar for the 55th time and get away with it.
As always, this captures the moment when these things happen:
Can never watch that clip enough. Timeless!

Do you mean for the public good or just for entertainments sake? There's also rumours floating around that the main UK opposition leader might go too for being caught drinking a beer during lockdown which, if it did happen, would probably have to go down as one of the most ridiculous self inflicted sword-fellings in the history of politics. I don't think the public is the winner in any of this, but there's never a dull moment etc

I have plenty of my own entertainment, I just wish people would get their comeuppance once in a while around here. You know, instead of scandal being a feature and not a bug.

Ah ok, i getcha. It's already pretty astonishing what Johnson has gotten away with, though, and I wouldn't be betting my non existent mortgage that he'll go this time either, for all half his party seems to have quit him now. A bit of bloodletting is good every now and again, of course, though the aftermath is often a case of "meet the new boss, same as the old boss".

At times like this, what we really need is a strong leader more than ever.

May as well get rid of Parliament and these bullshit elections, too. I mean, c'mon, think of the money we'd save. We'll all get rich this way, especially once we force those undeserving bums to work or be deported.

Have you been peeking at my policy manual? Those layabouts wouldn't know work if it came up and bit them in the ass, I'm thinking a nice long Rwandan holiday might be the boy for them.

Some snazzy armbands for loyal party members would be pretty neat, too.

Nice! And i got this pal, used to be one of those punky people back in the day, got a huge collection of armbands I know he'd lend me for a small fee, couple of million quid at worst. Really snazzy and colourful too. And while we're at it, I'm thinking it would be nice to have some kind of common attire for the office, not a uniform exactly, maybe just get everybody to wear a brown shirt or something. I dunno, really just spitballing here.

Would you see Hitler in his 1945 bunker letting the cat out in front of hundreds of cameras?

This fucking country.
