We are now almost at Trump levels where this government could fo anything and its supporters would still put up with it. I do wonder though if there is going to be some otherwise minor misdemeanour from BoJo that will rile folk up so much that it pushes even them over the edge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothings going to happen until the right of the party think they can use it to replace Johnson with one of their own. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soapy FFC Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 From the Guardian, Quote Back in the Commons Gove says that, until he took this job, he was not aware of how some developers “play fast and loose with the rules”, for example by setting up special purpose vehicle shell companies to “evade their responsibilities”. He says they represent “the unacceptable face of capitalism”. How many Tory MPs and donors use offshore companies and the like to evade their responsibilities like tax? Or has all that sort of stuff slipped his mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyellowbox Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Nothing will come of this. Not because it is in any way excusable, but because those who could do something about it are either implicated themselves or just don't care. If it was a piss up at downing Street on the same day that Prince Phillip got buried, then it would maybe cut through with those who could do something about it, but until then..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
