"Why would he go ? In reality I cannot imagine these so called parties being of any interest to voters . His achievements speak for themselves. An 80 seat majority , an exceptionally successfull vaccination programme and a successfull exit from the EU. There are many benefits from his period in office that are still to come. We currently have one of the fastest growing economies in Europe. At least he is prepared to take a few short cuts and get the job done. This approach is 100 times better than getting bogged done in bureaucracy. " Umm we forget that Blair had a majority, and he did some successful things like minimum wage, money for the NHS, improved schools, reduced childhood poverty, but he also had Iraq and Afghanistan and that was his downfall. So we can say it doesn’t matter what he did, partygate and all the lies have totally cancelled that out. Like Churchill said, to divine the future you look at the past, and the past is a great place to see what will happen with this PM’s future. | |||

We currently have one of the fastest growing economies in Europe. At least he is prepared to take a few short cuts and get the job done. This approach is 100 times better than getting bogged done in bureaucracy. " A few facts... Poll after poll finds Johnson's approval rating is appalling. Voters indeed seem to care v much about Partygate and Johnson's involvment in it. Yes Johnson got a big majority. So what? That means he shouldn't tell the truth to us or follow the laws we have to follow? The vaccination program has mostly gone well. But Johnson's other actions with the pandemic were often awful... He didn't bother to turn up to Cobra meetings about the pandemic. He undermined the public health message by boasting about shaking hands with everybody in a hospital on the day Sage were warning against that. He was photographed not bothering to wear a mask in a hospital when it was mandatory. He didn't sack Cummings after that man blatantly broke lockown. He didn't sack Hancock after that man blatantly broke lockdown rules. And let's not forget how hugely Partygate has undermined public health messaging. Also, studies conclue Johnson's lateness to lockdown cost literally thousands of lives. Oh and the many elderly people who died because the government sent hospital patients into care homes without first testing them for Covid. (Likely thousands more deaths there.) As for the successful Brexit, seriously? The economic damage has been huge and will be for a long time. A study concluded Brexit will cause us double the economic damage of Covid. Oh and on his economy claim, it's dubious to say the least. According to Full Fact, our economy grew the most over the past year, looking at the change between the third quarter of 2020 and the third quarter of 2021. But, when comparing the second and third quarters of 2021, the country ranked fifth – after France, Italy, Germany and Canada. And our country recorded the second worst growth among the G7, shrinking by 1.5% during the course of the pandemic. Quite the list of achievements, eh? | |||

"The vaccination programme has gone well thanks to the NHS not Johnson. Never liked him because of brexit he got it done to what cost to Businesses and lost our freedom of movement. We Voted Tory until he was made PM will never vote tory again and hope he does but on the other hand he he stays this bunch wont get in again. " So you wanted him to cancel brexit then? | |||

"Having looked at as much as available about these "parties" or after work drinks they appear to have been organised by civil servants for civil servants. The "birthday party" was organised as a surprise and many others without Bojo being present. That said he is the man at the top and should have acted to stop, sack and remove the morons who organised and planned things. I will be more interested in where the police investigation goes, who gets the blame and where the fines etc are levied." If he was truly “ambushed by a cake” then: 1. He should have given everyone including Carrie and the Interior Designer a ticking off and walked out (corporate culture is set by the leadership). 2. Why did he feel the need to lie and change his story over the days and weeks since it came to light? 3. What about the other 19 parties? 4. Where is the honest apology to all the 000s of people who lost loved ones who they couldn’t see due to the rules (they died alone). It is inexcusable and disgusting. They should all be sacked. And these parties were literally the icing on the cake. The real crime is the corrupt and fraudulent transfer of public assets (our money) to the cronies, friends and family of Tory ministers and peers. The biggest theft in history. They should be in fu77ing prison! | |||

Interesting how facts undermine and expose Boris’ bullshit over and over again . He can’t help but lie constantly because the truth is just so appalling . | |||

"He should go. But I doubt he will. Time will pass and people will just move on. A win for Boris and all those associated with him. A reinforcement of the fact that if you are from a background of privilege, you can do what you want." Yep. We won't be shot of Johnson or the Tories for a long time. | |||
