And in shock news... (that will shock no one)

Boris is PM!

As I asked in the office today:

"What next? Clowns tumbling out of Westminster?!"

To which the chorused reply:

"No... just the one, tumbling in!"

Looking forward to seeing what he does next.
Job number 1 is almost certainly going to be eating "Apples" on the stairs of No10.

The BBC sounds like the Queen has died.
Probably will be a quick election as there is no workable majority to do anything even without tory remainers trying to block any progress.

[Bubbs]

End of days is upon us.. 37 degrees in London is proof that the gates of hell have opened to allow Boris into number 10.

This is just proof to me that we are living a simulation and the person playing the game is taking the piss.

Interesting times ahead. I'd like to be fly on the wall when Boris and Trump go on the piss....

Strange, I watched 'The Riot Club' on telly last night and although it was flawed as a film it made me anxious about the likes of Boris, Cameron and all the other privileged public school shoe-ins.

[Diggs]

One thing I find odd is the view of lots of people that they want to 'drain the swamp' that is parliament currently, yet the same people are delighted to have Johnson as the next PM. He is as close to an establishment 'old school tie' chinless wonder as it is possible to get....

Boris makes me laugh, you just know he's going to say something inappropriate at just the wrong time and offend someone. He'll make a better job of it than May ever did.

Another unelected arse in the hot seat.

[Ste]

I do love quotes with no context or source provided so let's see what's going on.

[Easy-X]

Fake news! Does this mean Boris can be our honorary Trump?

If he delivered even a small amount of what Trump has, he’d go down in recent history as a rare breed of UK politician who actually carried out what they promised.

Something Trump does and our showers of shit do not.

“Leave means Leave”, “no deal is better than a bad deal.”
“I won’t go to war with Iraq without the backing of the country”
“I’ll pay off your student debt”
“Twelfty Pounds million to policing”

The only similarity between Boris and Trump is their hair style.

If the general public had voted Johnson into office, we'd truly be in full-bore USA territory. But we're not.

Johnson is a boring careerist chancer who wanted his go at the top slot, just for the sake of having his turn at doing it. No different from Theresa May and no better (or worse) prepared for doing the job than she was.

Nothing good or bad will happen, it's just going to be a hundred days of the same, in the build up to Brexit.

He'll provide more gaffs for the public to laugh about, but I don't expect much else. Politics needs brains and intellect, not hofty tofty tally ho "British spirit" which apparently only the upper aristocratic classes (and their wannabe tag-along puppet followers) are privy to. He'll achieve nothing, and a general election will be called, and UK politics will probably go into further disarray. The end.

I thought he was an okay Mayor of London

[Im-a-Ridah]

I'm quite thankful he is PM. Oh sure he isn't perfect, but anyone expecting that isn't being realistic. Anyone complaining should remember, you could have Blair, Brown, CameraOn, Adolf Corbyn, May or The Right Honourable Sir Keir Starmer MP QC KCB instead.

Keir insists he be addressed by his full title. He's an important man you see. More important than us.

[Johnnythefox]

Boris triggers the left and that's good enough for me.
