I smell fear.

Corbyn is toast.

Bring on that election.

I smell bulls***. When Boris opens his mouth.

If Corbyn has made it this far, he will contest the next election. If there was a viable alternative already with enough support Corbyn would be long gone by now.

I agree with all of this. Granted there is a basic and rightfully expected decency in being faithful to the mother of your children, but for some, personal indulgence and self gratification are more important than a bond of trust to their partner and by consequence their children. Low loyalty.

Boris' tumultuous personal life and scattered children are certainly well documented.... but the bloke is running to be Prime Minister, not Father or Husband of the Year.

Drawing an assessment of what is good for the country doesn't require a picture perfect home life, and the bar we set for politicians and the scrutiny they're under isn't fair in that regard. Motivations behind imperfections in one area of life, in certain roles may well even act as a positive. Trump has quite an extreme personality for instance, and I wouldn't be a fan of that in day to day life, but an upside of it in his role is that he doesn't think twice about being pushy on trade for example. Before him that type of approach was seen as strictly out of bounds.

I would rather Bojo or Hunt win on the strength of the arguments they put forward to tory members. Then we'll likely see more of a message for the country rather than the membership and see where it goes from there. What I don't want to see is a strategic release of a barney with the missus days prior to the vote in an attempt to throw the whole thing into disarray. US style politics coming to the UK. No thanks.

Try to use English and its grammar correctly and then others might be able to understand what you might be trying to communicate.

Not sure thats worth it most of the time though.

Will add this to the pantheon of attempted witty/scathing comebacks on this site, which miss the mark so spectacularly as to be in the wrong post code.

Nice try though!

I'm beginning to have second thoughts about Boris as our supremo due to his refusal to face the media and tell us exactly what he intends to try and do.

Whilst it's no concern of ours what he gets up to behind closed doors all he had to do was to admit that he and his girl friend have the occasional argument and this one was of no consequence and everyone would have moved on.

He needs a TV debate with Jeremy Hunt where they both answer relevant questions in some detail after all if we have a General Election soon he is going to have to face the cameras against Jeremy Corbyn if he has any hopes of the Conservatives winning

Yeah, you're a cone head Maine. You've been told.
