Can I make a request? Can we take the “?” off of the title of this thread? Seems beyond doubt to me at this point

He'll get away with it. He'll bluster and quip and soundbite and lie untl the next bit of news he can take the credit for, and all this will be forgotten.

After a quick look at Gullis's wiki entry he does seem to have form for being a twat. Reckoned himself to be a mixture of Johnson's and Mogg's personality. :roll:

Oh yes, creepy teacher guy.

Trying to remember if I ran into him during my time at Warwickshire CC. Probably not, as Stratford was solidly LD, and South Warks was mostly reasonably sane one nation types who loathed Cameron and his ilk.

A reminder of the pork haystack's preference for fastidious detail.

Hmmmmmm. If legit, seems someone has decided Johnson is not to be allowed to hang on.

Seems he's got form as a principled Tory and not a self-absorbed twat with a fragile ego :roll:

That all happened literally a week before I started working for them! No wonder he didn't immediately register.

Blimey. A senior Tory advising other Tories to report the Tory PM to the police.

Loyal cabinet minister = Nadine Dorries probably. And given she’s shown she’s either bewilderingly oblivious or so terminally stupid it’s a wonder she even remembers to eat, I don’t put much stock in it.

Yeah, but how unhinged would any leading tory have to be to want to take the lead now.

* Tax Rises.
* Energy crisis.
* Ukraine.
* Cost of living crisis.
* Border in the Irish sea.

With the bonus of:
* Having a target on your back labelled "Backstabber".
* The "free and fearless" elements of the press rolling it all into a "This just proves that Boris was right" narrative.
* Mentalists like Baker and crew continuing to run spoilers from their Bannonesque podium.
