Boris Johnson, former Prime Minister

[honeybee13]

So Lord Geidt replaced Sir Alex Allan, who resigned over the PM overruling his findings that Patel bullied civil servants.

 

From Pippa Crerar on Twitter yesterday: Lord Geidt has either resigned or is threatening to, over the PM breaking the ministerial code with partygate. He hasn't been there much over a year, has he? And he was already annoyed because the PM omitted to tell him about some text messages relating to wallpapergate.

Be great to see imperial measures again, I would love to see garages being made to price petrol and diesel in gallons instead of litres 

[honeybee13]

Are you sure, TOR? Doing the maths is a nightmare. Do you want £sd back as well?

 

In any case, exporters will have to stick with metric except for the few countries that don't have it.

[theoldrouge]

yes, I would love to go back to those days, yards , feet and inches , pounds and ounces, everything I learnt and understood. Make people think twice if they saw around £10 per gallon

Tobias Ellwood has a suggestion for easing the cost of living crisis.

anyone who thinks anything is going to change on Johnsons watch without Johnson being changed is mistaken .. Just more and more of the worst.

 

Looks like Rowley should be next Met leader, really can't see Ephgrave (as part of the current leadership .. and issues) getting it in any sane world ... then again ..

All thats suggesting (we already examined the option in the first thread) is that we mitigate slightly the pile of kack that Johnsons Brexit has generated.

All the restrictions + more of membership with even less of the say and benefits in anything.

 

Hold Johnson to his promises LIES and keep the issues out in the open. We've had more than enough evasions, water muddying and outright lies TY.

Perhaps that linked option would put us in a position where we would naturally get closer and closer to the EU to all (except a few mainly multi-millionaires) benefits, but we cant go on simply trying to deceive everyone, even when it is in their better (not best) interests, let alone when its total crappo Johnson spouts.

A Downing Street operation to stave off a Commons challenge to Boris Johnson's leadership is in motion as the number of Conservative MPs...

 

 

* 'Choking off the worst parties from the Sue Gray report simply wasn't enough' was overheard.

* Disgraceful that she wouldn't completely whitewash it was bemoaned

* 'Even the Met failed to properly cover it up' despite the help of Gray and being involved from the start said another

* Get some of those women who protested Met officers murdering them in court as a distraction suggested another

* 'Don't spoil the Queens jubilee said another

* We could lie to HM again to get parliament unlawfully prorogued again was allegedly suggested

* Quick, get the oil and gas drilling approved while you still can was reputed to be overheard from a massive doner, else no more funding for this crap

 

 

[honeybee13]

Are those suggestions serious or not, TJ?

[tobyjugg2]

looks very feasible and 'in keeping' to me

 

Patel has been reported using the 'jubilee'

The met has just announced its prosecuting some of the vigil DESPITE not going through CPS

Why else the drilling emergency authorisation as it wont help the UK energy supply much and will cost taxpayers billions

Edited June 2, 2022 by tobyjugg2

[tobyjugg2]

perhaps also also overheard

 

* Get that Ukrainian chap on praising Boris again and tell him we'll send him a few more anti-tank missiles sometime, all the other people supplying him aren't demanding references even though they are doing more so we might as well use it

* Don't forget the pounds shilling and pence dog whistle, but make sure no-ones asked how many bushels there are in a liter again

* Somebody shut marcus up as well else they be expecting us to waste 150 million feeding UK kids instead of using 6.5  Billion of taxpayer money to fund oil company profits .. the latter of course generating a million quid more in donations for us

Brandon Lewis has apparently stated that the drunken Partying people who abused staff at downing street haven't been identified and the Guvernment declare they don't know who they are and have been entirely unable to identify them.

 

... amid claims that Boris the Liar had assured back benchers that the worst of these unknown and unidentified abusers had left the building ..

...... but all were expected to be back in the building for the next cabinet and senior staff 'business meetings' and whenever else they like.

A Cabinet minister has claimed that Downing Street has not yet identified the staff accused of abusing cleaning and security staff in Sue Gray’s...

 

 

Cleaning and security staff abuse identification questionnaire

1. Do you understand you signed the official secrets act don't you?

2. You want to keep your job and NOT have the Met finding something really serious on you, stripping you of UK citizenhip and deporting you to Rwanda or worse America, don't you?

3. You are entirely happy and are always treated with the greatest respect

 

 

Notes for completing Answers

1. Yes

2. Yes

3. Yes

 

 

 

He also stated that the Gray report was entirely uninfluenced by the guvernment, apparently leaving only  negligence, incompetence or corruption on Grays part as the answer to missing events of significance.

Even the Torygraph is joining in on Abbagate now. Maybe the owners have gone off Johnson...

[tobyjugg2]

Many, Mainly populist tories, were selling Gray as incorruptible and scrupulously honest

.. they said the same of Johnson though didn't they.

 

Best you can say is that she was ordered to .. and she did ignore, withhold and/or remove highly relevant stuff from the report .. which in my eyes makes her and her report corrupt.

Johnson the lying liar who piles lies on top of lies to try to cover-up his prior lies

to be fair, this,of course, from an arch remainer, and a frequent contributor to project fear

[tobyjugg2]

You mean project truth?

or would you care to show where he said anything which is proving to be wrong?

 

The price rises i am seeing in supermarkets are worse than I expected (which was a peak of 20% (25% at most) then falling)

- but except for loss leaders, I'm seeing more than 25% since Brexit, and 20%+ over the last month.

eg Large supermarket milk gone up from £1.50 - £1.89+

 

lets look at energy too

France saw 4% locked down by gov

We've seen

12% then 54% and soon another great big wodge extra cost.

 

So whats this project fear you refer?

 

[theoldrouge]

good grief where on earth do you shop Harrods? milk is only £1.40 at our local Waitrose 

Stuart Rose in his own words..."it was project fear and it didn't work
 

Rose said he would have pursued a different campaign strategy. “I think the message should have been a softer one. I think it should have been ‘hold on a second, let’s look at history, let’s look at the wonderful benefits we get'.”But he believes that if there was a re-run of the referendum today that Vote Leave would still win.

We dont have a waitrose, just Tesco, ALDI, Asda, M&S, Farmfoods, Morrisons and some smaller outlets and and I did specify large supermarket milk - and the 'For Farmers' one is more.

 

You haven't stated where he exaggerated anything.

 

and 'project fear' has clearly come to be used by the liars and/or incompetent sheep to denigrate anyone giving more realistic perspectives or analysis on the effects of Brexit or any of their many other false narratives, however it might have been used otherwise on occasion.

Edited June 5, 2022 by tobyjugg2

[tobyjugg2]

£1.40 for the medium size milk - glad we don't have a waitrose driving prices up even further

Edited June 5, 2022 by tobyjugg2

[honeybee13]

When you say medium or large milk, TJ, how much do you mean in litres please?

[tobyjugg2]

large is 6 pints (LOL)

(for the Brexit ministers to keep them clueless eh)

 

Waitrose don't seem to do em - asda aldi tesco morrisons all do
