The Dubious World of Boris Johnson

Sorry, I thought you were having a fanboy moment there

As we all struggle with increased fuel bills it’s good to see that at least the latest millionaire chancellor Nadhim Zahawi has personal experience of getting government support to help pay his heating bills. In his case it was “mistakenly” claiming £6000 on his MP’s expenses to pay for heating his stables

On a toasted level of 1 - 10 how toasted is Boris?
1 = Buttered
2= Marmalade
3=Burnt but scraped off
4- Burnt
5 = Burnt but edible
6 = Blackened but scraped
7= Blackened
8 = Blackened but can't eat it
9 = Noteating that
10 = Rubbish bin
OR ANY other level you like

Who was it who claimed expenses for a pond? Boris shoud have been bold and and sacked the lot of them and offered jobs to businessmen to get us out of this shit knowing our luck Sir Philip Green would have been Chancellor by now

If he had real moral fortitude he wouldn't have gone back into the same cabinet.

And then he wouldn't have had to resign again...

If he had any real fortitude he would have led a cabinet rebellion to get him out of No 10.

2 more resignations

More info on Nadhim Zahawi. He was the co-founder of research company YouGov. When he was an MP in 1997 YouGov did usual poll forecasting of the 2017 election result. This was when May started the campaign with a big lead over Corbyn which as the campaign neared election day was gradually whittled down. It has been claimed that just prior to the election a YouGov poll was completed which predicted a hung Parliament and that when Zahawi heard about this before it was published he warned them that he would publicly call for the resignation of the YouGov CEO if it was wrong. The poll was not published.

If this was true it was clearly an attempt to influence the election result in an underhand way.

How many in total now? I've lost count...
