Probably a bit like the German people did when Hitler topped himself. Feels good, until you turn around and see the wasteland he's left behind. Which makes me think, what's everbody's sliding door moment? Cameron calling the referendum? The wrong Miliband knifing his borther in the back? The wrong Miliband not eating a sandwich correctly? The wrong Miliband changing the rules allowing Corbyn in? [btw I like Ed but he made some huge mistakes in retrospect]. Johnson ripping up the wrong speech letter? For me it goes back further, to Brown leaving the mic on and saying "that bigoted woman". All went tits up from there onwards, accelerating faster and faster. Iraq war & in hindsight the wrong successor to Blair. Should’ve been Davey Milliband at that point maybe. Brown was hugely unpopular with the sort of swing voters in the south who loved Blair before he was crowned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobos 297 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 8 minutes ago, Craig said: Brown's faux pas in the 2010 election didn't help, but I fear it was already on the slide before then. Many in the middle ground found Blair's position on Iraq unforgiveable, and then for him to resign mid-term probably didn't help matters. Yep, I agree on the Iraq war , I was a liberal voter at that time but really liked what Labour did for education, in particular - but I had to protest . Sad thing was, I actually saw the other side - Please forgive any "horribleness here" I do have empathy and the victims of the disasters I name are all human and all worthy of greiving for ... BUT America has a reputation for acting strong and then playing victim for "small scale" events. Pearl Harbour was the only attack on US soil and it claimed 68 civilians and 2340 armed servicemen. It wasn't a good thing, lets put it that way - but it WASNT a full scale invasion and occupation and the US used it to justify a double Nuclear bomb - the double being to test 1 type of weapon's effect against another (apparently). In North Vietnam, US forces were being out smarted and stuck in a circle of "take territoriy, lose territory , take territory back - record numbers of our dead vs their dead, make their dead higher" - they then used that loss of troops to justify carpet bombing other soveriegn states (Cambodia mainly) to "destroy the re-enforcements" - when The Viet cong were illegally invading Cambodia to use these routes. This is known to have killed thousands of Cambodian civilians. Then we've all the Israel stuff and the US battle for the petrodollar going on - which arguably fuelled the terrorism that caused September 11th. Once that had happened, and america was reeling - I think saying "no we need more evidence" , or "sorry the British public cant get behind this" would have irrepably damaged our relationship with the US, and given that our military are so intertwined ( all the aircraft carriers at the time were US owned and borrowed by us) , it could have been catastrophic. I stand by my anti Iraq war stance, but having read stuff years after, I can at least acknowledge the other "strategical" view has merit. But I just can't agree that its "OK" to kill loads of civilians in long range bombardment of capital cites, just because its "Far away" or they are all "rag heads" etc.. ok, daily rant done, and de-railed another thread !

He asked a bloke how he was doing apparently, to which the bloke replied. 'Better until you spunk laden mouth opened, now fuck off' 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30409 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I saw something on Twitter earlier which sounds plausible given Johnson’s previous form. If the 1922 Committee change the rules and there’s a vote of no confidence which he loses - he’ll do the following: instead of going he’ll call a general election and seek to deselect the MPs who voted against him. I’m not sure if he needs a vote in Parliament to do that. I know the fixed term Parliament act was superseded. In any case the opposition would vote for it so it wouldn’t require much support in his own party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I remember he was successful purging the party last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
