very good majority, Brexit done ( with a few tweaks to be done ). Thanks Boris now please go. It seems a lot of the predictions of his personality traits coming through. Poor leadership skills, too interested in popularity and a sense of humour out of touch with most of the voters. Comes over as untrustworthy.

Elevate him to Lords and move on.

 


Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

In other words, completely unsuitable for the job and incompetent at best. The damage he has done will unfortunately be for generations to come to have to live with and pick up the bill.

Agree with all that, except instead of "Comes over as untrustworthy" I would say "He is untrustworthy". But who should take his place? All the members of his cabinet are duds (perhaps intentionally on his part). Outside the cabinet I think the country would be far better off with Jeremy Hunt in charge.

Even as a remainer, I have to admit that he was asked to try and fix a situation where you cant win either way. Neither side seem happy but I cant dispute that he has done it.
Is he someone you want dealing with day to day? I dont know, you would have to aske a tory or someone on the right, but he has definitely done what he was brought in to do

Fully agree.

Problem is he's an election winner and parties don't give them up easily.....look at how Labour were prepared to hold their nose with Blair for those election wins.

Johnson is terrible for all the reasons you said, then again at least he isn't Starmer.

If it is true that he doesn't enjoy the job I can see Boris stepping down before the next election and letting Rishi take over.

The job (Brexit / COVID) is still not done so I would imagine most Tory party members would expect him to hang on for 2 more years until we are in smoother waters.

He and Cameron don't like it each other and were both rivals from school days? I would imagine his closest advisors would remind him that Cameron cut and run when the country needed him.

He should go to America and have a bash at being President. He’d have to live there for 14 years but would still be younger than the last two.

Delivered Brexit.

Successfully delivered the vaccination programme.

Covid restrictions all lifted in England ahead of pretty much all of Europe, including Wales and Scotland.

Despite all critisims of Boris, he's a politician who has a track record of getting things done.

This reminds me of campaigns to attack Blair. A lot of wanted rid of him, but there was no real leader with the charisma, status, and ideas who could come in an replace him.

Successfully continued the destruction of this economy and delivered the most anti libertarian laws ever passed in this country since democracy.

This PM destroyed small business all over this country and had the cheek to reference Thatcher.

Brexit....ok, but that's what he was elected for....that's the only positive sentiment I can agree with here.

Really don't you mean he took credit for the NHS delivery of vaccines.

'Six EU states have now fully inoculated a larger share of their total populations with a coronavirus vaccine than the UK, after the bloc’s vaccine roll-out has took off while Britain’s impressive early jab rate has slumped.'

As for brexit, even chief tory brexiteer Steve Baker admits it is a 'fiasco'.
