The news keeps mentioning BoJo the clown coming back from the Bahamas, they even found some members of the public who said he did a fantastic job and they want him back
The Rolland Rat lookalike seems to be favourite...

I've been thinking about the current mess, and reading the views expressed in this thread.
Currently there seems to be considerable disagreement on the choice of next Prime minister.?
It is also quite apparent that the disastrous governing by Westminster is playing into the hands of the Scottish separatists.?
So (two birds, one stone) how about making Nicola Sturgeon PM of the United Kingdom for the remaining term.?

I like the idea of Rolf as PM at least we'd know all the kangaroos were tied down .
"can you guess what it is yet ?"
"that's right , it's a huge **** shitshow or as we like to call it "the economy""

All those UKippers who joined the Tory party must be frothing at the mouth that we now have a PM of Asian decent.

He's the youngest British prime minister in more than two hundred years ....let's hope he brings some fresh perspective to the table....and that he's not saddled with the usually entrenched positions that older politicians seem to prize so dearly.

Yeah....I might have jumped the gun a bit.
Seems he's worth £730M or something insane like that.
Good luck.

Thats about right i reckon. He wont do anything that involves change - he doesn't want to beat Liz to the shortest PM i'd imagine.
Boy do we need a general election - they really don't get it do they?

My favourite is the continual quotes that "it's not in the best interest of the country" and "it's not what the people want"
That despite them having to discuss multiple petitions in the house demanding an election.

That's me in a camp then.
The desperation of the elite classes to keep things as they are is now quite terrifying. There is no doubt in my mind that the system is on the verge of collapse.

I didn't think the Truss debacle could get any worse but apparently her private phone was hacked while she was in office .
