The ‘patriotic’ party that drones on about the stability of monarchy, the Union, law & order, economic competence, respect for our flag, anthem, police, institutions, traditions and our global influence has traduced all of them and made 🇬🇧 a vast laughing stock.
It’s incredible.
Apparently Number 10 Downing St publicly apologising to the Monarch via the global news media today still isn’t enough evidence for the Metropolitan Police.
This all feels rather like the end of the #Trump presidency. Increasingly nonsensical defences, evasions, tactics, self delusion, denial, the base starting to destroy itself. The only difference is they aren’t armed. Matter of time, this rotten stuff always plays out.
Here is Johnson just after the Allegra Stratton video leak, faking shock and fury over what was, we now know, one of the less egregious breaches in this whole sorry saga of systemic revelry and law breaking. He is unfit for public office and must leave.
Why can’t people see this stuff is almost endless? It’s just going to keep on coming, these weren’t a handful of isolated incidents. Totally systemic, institutionalised behaviour. His senior MPs need to go and see him and tell him to go. On Monday morning. #JohnsonMustGo
I’d like a PM who comes to Parliament to present a weekly vision and progress report, not a weekly half-hearted apology for insulting the country’s intelligence. #JohnsonOut#BorisResign
The gaslighting ‘line to take’ has become that the lockdown rules had all become far too complicated. But they weren’t, they were very clear and simple, which was why the breaking of them is so blindingly easy to spot. Bringing booze to an outdoor event at work wasn’t allowed.
When your last line of defence comes from a deranged colleague famous for blocking legislation to ban up-skirting and to protect girls from female genital mutilation, it’s probably time to leave public office and go and write your Shakespeare book. #JohnsonOut#JohnsonMustGo
He may well say people were working v hard, the garden was a place of work, it was extraordinary times. But you won’t find any exhausted, devastated #NHS staff who were on their knees organising ‘bring your own’ parties at their places of work. So that line won’t wash.#JohnsonOut
I have just written to my MP @GregClarkMP asking for his views on the PM’s suitability to remain in office and look forward to his reply. #JohnsonMustGo
