Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson is exactly the leader the Tories deserve.

Well, it's certainly been high-drama from a distance lately.

I suggested "BoJo and the Brexit Conundrum". He does bear a passing resemblance to a certain Belgian comic character with some racist bits in his past...

I pity the British people for having to choose between Johnson and Corbyn.
Nobody deserves such ignominy.

Nick Clegg getting booted out for this waste of space was one of the stupidest results of the 2017 election.

Always fun to see how long it'll take for the "owner" to regain control of his account.  It sounds like this Jared fellow may not have a staff right now and may not be capable of figuring out how to shut this down.

I, for one, cannot wait to see the Johnson government inevitably implode in the next few months.

Too bad they'll take the country down with them.

Not if it's after BoJo commits the government to no-deal. Remainer Tories may very well come back to bite him in the ass.

Lidington, Gauke, Stewart and Hammond all resigned before Johnson took over.

And it’s a massacre thus far, Boris has already sacked Mordaunt (Defence), Hinds (Education), Fox (Trade), Clark (Business), Brokenshire (Housing) and Bradley (Northern Ireland). Grayling (Transport) resigned, but he wasn’t going to survive the reshuffle anyway.

It’s a purge of the Cabinet.

EDIT: Can we call it Night of the Blond Knives? Saw that on Twitter and found it hilarious.
