Not sure what will happen then for Steptoe because Farage and his minions will play a big role in who gets the keys to No10.

So far everything is going as predicted

Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt will go head-to-head to become Conservative leader amid claims tactical voting led to Michael Gove's exit from the race.

Mr Johnson's team has denied such tactics - but at least one backer suggested some MPs may have switched votes to end Mr Gove's campaign.

Mr Johnson and Mr Gove fell out during the 2016 leadership contest - which saw Theresa May become prime minister - when Mr Gove abandoned Mr Johnson's bid to be leader to launch his own.

After Thursday's results, some of Mr Gove's supporters claimed Mr Johnson's backers may have voted for Mr Hunt to eliminate their candidate.

So now we wait for the grass roots Tories to put Dumbo-Bojo in to Number 10 and it looks like they will. Taken in by Bojo's high wire act and falling into a stream these fools are going to put that buffoon of a clown in power, our only hope is the French invade us.

This morron has a short attention span, you can just see it he goes over to the EU and within a few minutes bashing his chest and swinging from the lights while growling!

Yes folks we can all look forward to a general election where the Terrorist supporting hound wins or the Lib and Brexit! We are screwed well and truly.

Or Macron finally closes the curtains but then revoking Article 50 would probably become a reality.

Fortunately UK executive is answerable to the UK people and their parliament has full legislative rights.

Quite a busy/intersting period for the Tories

Quote:

Mark Field has been suspended as a Foreign Office minister after grabbing a female Greenpeace activist at a black-tie City dinner.

Mr Field has said he regrets confronting Janet Barker and marching her away as protesters interrupted a speech by the chancellor.

He said he had been "genuinely worried" she may have been armed.

Ms Barker said she would not make a complaint to police but the MP "should go to anger management classes".

A by-election will be held in Brecon and Radnorshire after 10,005 people signed a petition to remove the constituency's Conservative MP, Chris Davies.

Mr Davies had been convicted of a false expenses claim in March.

Could also be the beginning of a smear campaign in an attempt to even up the odds.

Looks like the UK and EU share similar electoral problems.

Quote:

A summit of 28 European Union leaders has failed to reach agreement on who should take on the bloc's top jobs.

The talks, held in Brussels, continued until the early hours of Friday morning without candidates being finalised.

More Greens Brexit Far right/Left have rocked the EU boat and this is only the start. I hope they give the traditional EU pigs a hard time.

Catfish · 06-22-19, 03:47 PM

Nigel Farage after his incorrect facts about Ireland and EU on live TV
"incorrect facts", is that like "alternative truths"?

https://www.indy100.com/article/nige...-video-8752246

Old news i know, but heartening to see a light in the whole mess.
"Why on earth has the BBC not been doing this?"
Because no sane person can bring up facts and evidence as quick as Farage produces his lies. Well known tactic, just babble on and steam-roll all others.

Looks like a put up job to me, a bit too convenient "concerned neighnours" calling police.

That or they were drunk and he spilt some wine on her sofa.....
Either way it was a nothing burger - Much like his leader ship will turn out to be.

So it looks like 160,000 idiots will put a complete idiot in power god help us..latest odds from skybet

Boris the bufoon 1/6
Hunt the runt 7/2

STEED · 06-23-19, 05:13 AM

The Bojo incident clearly was the work of liberal neighbour's trying to cause him a issue. Which proves how stupid they were as it did nothing but raise his profile even more.

And by Wednesday it will be forgotten, don't get me wrong i'm not defending bojo i'm just pointing out the results and if anyone wants to have another try get it right and present damming evidence that will force him out.
