Boris Johnson: Spivving On Borrowed Time

I, and many others, have just witnessed the most shambolic, petulant and embarrassing  performance by a British Prime Minister at Prime Ministers Questions in living memory. That doesn’t really do it justice. It was horrific. The Tories pantomime horse has lost it. He never really had much beyond bluster, but the Tories could always rely on their one-trick-pony to perform. This was diabolical. 

Even Wesley Streeting agrees with me, for crying out loud. 

Today’s performance will add fuel to many of the fires that already burn away behind the scenes. 

Some say Johnson will be gone in six months, because he doesn’t enjoy being Prime Minister. The Etonian Yeti spent five decades priming himself for the top job, and now he’s got it, he doesn’t like it. 

This is a familiar story with Johnson, as many of his former partners, wife, and children will confirm, if they can ever get past the alleged multiple gagging orders. 

Others say he has health issues following his Covid-19 infection (which the Daily Mail blamed on former Corbyn adviser, Seamus Milne). While the Mail story was pure fantasy, it’s certainly possible he has ongoing health problems, which is consistent with other sufferers of the deadly virus. Johnson may well not be fit for office, in more than one sense. 

Then there’s rumours of a break-up with the mother of his most recent offspring, Carrie Symonds. I’m not going to waste any time speculating on that one, leave it to the toxic redtops to expose when their billionaire tax-shy owners have had enough of Johnson and want to see Gove and Sunak go head-to-head for the top job. 

One MP I spoke with last weekend is convinced Boris Johnson’s conscience is weighing him down. Once I stopped laughing, I tried to find a way in to believing it. Most normal people would probably feel somewhat weighed down by the tragic events on their watch, but Johnson? Not a chance.

No matter how hard I try, I just can’t see Johnson having a conscience. You know his record as well as me. The racism, the sexism, the philandering, the lying, the thuggery, the bullying. Johnson has no soul. He is corrupted, from head to toe. 

Johnson has gone dramatically downhill, this cannot be denied. 

Fans of the Labour leader, Sir ‘Keith’ Starmer, insist this Johnson meltdown is because of the forensic dissecting of their man at PMQs. 

Have a word with yourself. Johnson has been going downhill for several months, and birthday boy Keith had nothing to do with it, apart from telling Johnson he knew he was trying his best. 

While Johnson stumbled and limped throughout the last six months, latest establishment darling Starmer would provide the safety crutches so Johnson could hobble along, while the morgues began to overflow. Keith even admitted sending Johnson a private letter of support, revealed exclusively by The Skwawkbox earlier today. 

What next? A hamper with belated gifts for Wilfred?

Yes, Keith is able to do PMQs. If a barrister can’t ask a few questions without making a pigs ear of it, he wouldn’t be a very good barrister. But he does tend to miss gaping wide open goals. 

Johnson himself doesn’t look particularly well. He looks tired, uninterested, vague, and like a fish out of water. It was like his presence in the House was an inconvenience to him. Are we supposed to be grateful? 

Johnson’s limited ability has never been so widely exposed as it has been over the past few months. His refusal to meet bereaved families who lost loved ones from Covid-19, the A-levels fiasco, the staged holiday, the collapsing oven ready Brexit deal, a deep recession and the falling approval ratings, the Johnson chickens are coming home to roost.

Today’s performance at Prime Ministers Questions will do little to dampen down the rumours of various personal struggles, in fact, his stuttering, shambolic performance is more likely to add fuel to the fire. 

Johnson is unable to take any positives from today. None whatsoever. His MPs will have their own private concerns, and his replacement will already be lobbying for support, and promising top jobs to people you wouldn’t trust to look after your children for two minutes. 

If you haven’t watched Prime Ministers Questions, it’s right here. It’s painful to watch. Johnson is absolutely dreadful.

Boris Johnson is finished, if not now, it will be in the near future, in my opinion. His leadership just isn’t there, the soundbites aren’t cutting through, people are losing their jobs and finding out living off £12 a day isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. 

Johnson and his team will spin, hide, lie, and deny the country of any sort of competent leadership at a time when we need it most. 

And let’s be honest, the potential replacements offer nothing but a continuation of establishment friendly, them and us capitalist hogwash. 

We need genuine socialism to rebuild Britain at the end of this slow motion Johnson/Cummings car crash. Sticking plasters come unstuck. But when the current Conservative chancellor is doing a better job of appearing to be more progressive than the Labour Party, we’ve got a serious problem. 

But the first problem is Johnson himself. His failure to deliver the oven ready Brexit deal isn’t going unnoticed and we continue to head towards the no deal Brexit that the Cummings Cabal have spent the last decade dreaming about. 

Boris Johnson is profoundly unfit to be Prime Minister. It’s just a matter of time.

Talk again soon,
