What matters atm is he has a big enough majority to act as he pleases and that might yet turn out to be rather worrying.

Bozo has got some major problems hurtling his way and its probably going to split his MPs down the middle, damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. :haha:
HS2 and Huawei (pronounced Wah Way) are the stuff of nightmares for him at the moment, he's going to need a very thick skin and even broader shoulders before he puts these 2 to bed, good luck Boris you're going to need it. :D:D

The Huawei decision is a mistake, and a critical one. Huawei makes some excellent consumer devices with very good bang for the buck ratios (I just bought my second, a mediapad M5 8.4, and own a P9 lite), but it is insane to offer the Chinese military a breachhead into the countrys critical IT infrastructure. The technological implications are complex, and it seemd that opportunists easily overlook the risks, helped by their desire to not need to see risks, and further pushed by massive Chinese threats and intimidation, while depending on Bejings good will for future deals. But China is neither a friend nor an ally.


Nokia and Ericsson. European companies, not American or korean or Chinese. More expensive and not as leading as Huawei, but sufficiently potent to build G5 network nevertheless. The Chinese sell under value to get their foot into the door. its a trap.


Johnson is hopelessly wrong here.

Agreed :yep:

:har:

I really don't see a problem here and I doubt the Brit public will either.

Steptoe has no idea about this issue.

All foreign national offenders should be deported from the country and those with dual nationality should be stripped of there british citizenship as well. :up:

We have the same discussion here in Denmark and in Sweden.

The answer people get is

We can't deport foreigners who have commit crime in our country, if they have a Danish/Swedish passport, due to these conventions such as Geneva convention or UN convention.

^ Self-evident. If anyone has a danish passport, he should be subject to danish law. End of discussion.

Why he/she has initially received it (dual citizenship?) is another question.. and maybe reason for discussion or change.

But even a person without any citizenship and no passort at all is subject to international law, and humanitarian concerns. If you think this is wrong you should read one or two novels by Eric Ambler :)

Shortest Chancellor in history, not a good thing with the budget four weeks away.

"Mr Javid rejected an order to fire his team of aides, saying "no self-respecting minister" could accept such a condition."

I am sure "The Sun" or "Express UK" will use a different description.


"His resignation follows rumours of tensions between Mr Javid and the prime minister's senior adviser Dominic Cummings."

Could it be someone has a rest of reason, and self respect.

Dominic Cummings is pulling all the strings here and poor old Bozo Johnson is having to dance to his tunes whether he likes it or not.

I'm pleased Dominic has axed Julian Smith, he approved prosecuting ex British soldiers in N Ireland. :up:
Housing Minister Esther McVey has bit the dust again, can't that bleeding woman hold a job down?. :haha:
Sajid Javid, with a name like that he needed sacking, but he jumped before he was pushed, he never even had a budget so we didn't know if he was going to be any good as a chancellor, obviously Dominic thought not.

If these two keep carrying on like this no one will want to be promoted to the cabinet, beware the Ides of March Bozo. :D

If you peruse the blog post over on Conservative Home you'll find that quite a few of it's commentators don't like what they're seeing:

We'll, they did vote BoJo in as leader. My heart bleeds. NOT....:O:

Profile: Rishi Sunak, rising star of the Johnson project

Mike.

Oh, he has. He sees that he is loosing another one of his most natural allies.

Psycho Dominic is the puppet master.:03: :yep:

Quite concerning overall but he does appear to have an abundance of self respect.

On the contrary, he is the front man for Boris, who is obviously delighted takes all the flack for everything.

Boris has long wanted to have more direct influence on a number of government departments and the treasury is the latest.

An interesting time to take over the reins.

This will need to be confirmed as I heard this on the radio.

The Jewish Council of England is backing Lisa Nandy to be the next leader or the labour party.
