No he's not, but you knew that already 

[redelitev6]

This could be "interesting" 

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Yes, Boris is the new PM.

Hoorah.....we are all saved.

[Viral_Jim]

Yes, Boris is the new PM.

Hoorah.....we are all saved.

Yes, the man widely tipped as the country's worst ever foreign secretary. Thank goodness we aren't in a time of significant geopolitical unrest....

[Varche]

First job. Cancel all summer hols for politicians and support staff. Tackle the jobs that have slipped during Mays tenure.

Second job. Go over to Brussels and negotiate golden pumkins for everyone.

Third job express astonishment when the government finds it hasn't a working majority.

Fourth job. Sit on the backbenches in the Autumn following a general election where a coalition of rejoin the EU regardless of the cost parties have the majority.

Fifth job. Hand out gold plum to everyone. Welcome back gift from EU.

[Sir Tigger KC]

I don't think he can be any worse than any of the other clowns we had in Number 10 for the last 30 odd years.

Oh FGS give the man a chance - he's not even PM till tomorrow 

[Olympia5776]

I'm having to force myself to feel sanguine about this new era in UK politics .
My belief is that we have reached an all time low in the quality ,ability and personality required to be an elected member of any party in office or opposition , there is no party line anymore ,no feeling of responsibility to the electorate only an overpowering belief in each one's " I know better than you " attitude.
They act like a barrel of fetid , overfed rodents .
Jeremy had more than a tinge of the untrustworthy about him but Boris is , frankly , embarrassing .

The 92,153 that voted for him must see something that I don't .

I truly wish and hope that he proves me wrong and that he is a savage wolf in sheeps clothing but this will either turn out surprising and spectacularily great or the reservoir  for a tsunami  of scorn and derision by all our detractors .

[Bigron]

I think that all you doubters are in for a surprise at how well he will do the job.
Cometh the moment, cometh the man.....

Ron.

[2boxerdogs]

Let's hope he proves himself, lot of folk slagging him off personally I like to see someone have a go before criticising them, I've been asked to climb the promotion ladder several times but always turned it down for two reasons the first being I've never needed the extra cash , and secondly I can't stand poor timekeeping or untidiness now some of them turn up looking like a bag of shite and late, if reprimanded they call it bullying . So I wouldn't last 5 minutes.😉

Ron.

I truly and honestly hope you are right Ron.
Maybe with some professional honing of his public personna and introducing some gravitas into his presentation skills it might persuade me to listen to him for more than 30 secs without getting uncomfortable and edgy .
However , I'm the first to say " do not judge a book by it's covers " .

[Bigron]

He can be serious. Did you ever see his TV series on Roman Britain and its decline? It was very well researched and presented and very entertaining.
He has made a very good smokescreen of buffoonery to fool his enemies, but now is the time to
"throw off this loose behavior,
And pay the debt I never promisèd,
By how much better than my word I am,
By so much shall I falsify men's hopes;
And, like bright metal on a sullen ground,
My reformation, glitt'ring o'er my fault,
Shall show more goodly and attract more eyes
Than that which hath no foil to set it off.
I'll so offend to make offense a skill,
Redeeming time when men think least I will."
Prince Hal: Henry IV Pt. 1

[Doctor Gollum]

Credit where it's due, he did an infinitely better job of running Lundun than both the previous and current incumbents combined

That's me giving him a chance!

I was one of them Don. The reason I voted for him was simple. I couldn't possibly vote for the other fella.

How did those water cannons work out in the end ?

Didn't say he was perfect, but he was elected to the role. Twice

...and can it be merely coincidence that the majority of pols are professionals, (PPE seconds from Bumf**k University) who have never lifted a finger in any job that actually serves a useful purpose? 

[Rods2]

This is a long read but is how Boris using article XXIV to negotiate an FTA can move forward the who gravitas on #Brexit.

[New POD]

I don't think he can be any evil than any of the other clowns we had in Number 10 for the last 30 odd years. 

Since we had to give back the bits of the "Empire" where we exploited lands and people that we had previously "borrowed", have we ever been "great". 

I mean has say 90% of people ever felt safe and secure? At gthe same time   It seems that with each new Government different people are exploited or rewarded. 

That is : Since the tories took over from labour the poor and disabled have been shat on, whilst labour previously spent money we didn't have removing child poverty.

I don't know which planet you live on, but I can only hope that it's in a distant galaxy.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Define poverty. 

[Sir Tigger KC]

Define poverty. 

You can't afford anything bigger than a 50" plasma TV! 

[STEMO]

That's awful. Everyone knows plasma is shite.

if you can afford the 5 Gigawatt of electricity to run one, they keep your house nice and warm

Just watched JRM first performance at  the dispatch box as leader of the house. He was absolutely superb. With a bit more experience he will make a great leader.

Did he arrive on his penny farthing?

I like JRM when he appears on the likes of Have I Got News For You ..... he's a toff that's completely out of his depth when seated with the Great Unwashed but does his very best to join in.

He reminds me of a Victorian undertaker who doesn't eat and only comes out under the cover of darkness.

[Olympia5776]

I like JRM .
Re PMQ's , I thought Boris routed them ..
Corbyn was spectacularily bad rolling out the same old same old , he even looked defeated.
Joe Swinson , in her well hidden Scottish accent , was , Mmm ..... laughable   . I'm sure all the lb's will feel short changed from that choice .
Ian Blackford did his job well ,but was still annihilated by Boris .
The steady and silent departure of the labour front bench was peculiar leaving Corbyn like a fossilised dinosaur on a cliff face .....

Yeah , I enjoyed that . 

[Rods2]

Disheveled Compo Corbyn always looks defeated before he opens his mouth & when he does it all goes downhill from there. He makes Michael Foot look like a snappy dresser.

He has a brain as sharp as a razor though. 

Anyhoo….Boris sent me an email last night saying he guarantees that we will leave the EU on 31st October, and we all know he couldn't tell a lie, so its all good now.

You are wealthy and know people in high places.

The only emails I get start with .......you owe £0000 and have still not paid........expect a knock at your door.

It must be nice to have the ear of the PM.

[STEMO]

Jonathan Pie loves his new, diverse cabinet. 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

He sent me another email this morning inviting me to join him at a special event later this year. Im a married man ! 

[Sir Tigger KC]

I saw this and agree.  He was excellent and quite entertaining as well!

Yep, a general election.

[Rods2]

One of these days, when Compo is stressed from being out of this depth he will scream out: Harooooooold!

No as he could feature in either.
