He was an asset at the last election and he’s more likeable / popular than anything else they’ve got. I can’t get my head around those things being the case but there’s plenty to suggest that’s true. Plus he’s basically trying to dismantle democracy and the independence of the judiciary and whatever else purely to stay in power. I think this is all correct, but if you tie it in with what's happened chiefly in the US, but also India, Brazil, Hungary & Poland then I think we can say this sort of democratic coup shit isn't going away. Trumpism didn't die in early January 2021...its still very much here and if the perpetrators & instigators of Jan 6th aren't properly punished then the US goes a further step down the road to totalitarianism . We will follow as surely as night follows day if Johnson survives and is allowed to attack the judiciary, the right to protest, citizenship removal etc etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44930 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Sunak is also a tiny, tiny dwarf. He looks like a 10 year old boy when stood next to anyone normal size. People won't vote for that to be PM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has fuck all chance of winning a single red wall seat imo. The red wall had no problem voting for the old Etonian. Just have to put our faith in him being too brown for the racist British public.

Rayvin 5223 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Sunak's the most credible person they've got though. I think Gove's star has fallen these days and frankly there's a real dearth of talent anywhere near the front bench. Patel might fancy herself for it, she's certainly primed her audience on the immigration stuff. But she is of course a woman, and a person of colour, so she'd have the biggest mountain to climb.

Rayvin 5223 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 I mean, that fella next to him doesn't look that 'average' either mind Unless Sunak is warping my perception of the whole image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That musty be shopped? It's odd because he gives me the impression of being quite tall somehow. Anyway, this is the reason Johnson is going. Taken before the Xmas party shenanigans as well.

Renton 21632 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 I think it's because he's properly proportioned isn't it. He's not a dwarf or a midget. More like someone who has been shrunk by some Sci-Fi device. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5223 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Google says he's 5"6. That is below average iirc. Doesn't seem -that- bad though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44930 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 5 foot 6 and pictured next to the 6ft odd American President.

Gemmill 44930 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Look, I get that this has got your back up because you're 5ft 4, but this only applies if you're trying to be PM. Pint sized drugs reps are fine. Non-threatening even. Edited December 9, 2021 by Gemmill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
