He's on newsnight in a bit - looking forward to it.Heseltine just now: "it started with the Brexit campaign which was a pack of lies"
Fair play.

Be extra funny if his speech writers resign overnight.Tomorrow will be an absolute shit show. BJ will have to front this up in the HoC. He's got PMQs where Starmer just has to read out bits from the resignation letters. Then there is the tradition of speeches from resigning ministers. Another humbling for BJ. More resignations maybe?
Its so bleak for him but he will try. He has no shame so will brass this out. But the optics of how bad this will look for the party is off the scale.
Brilliant.
Vote for a clown and you get a circusWe elected him, though, and we get what we deserve. Absolutely incredible how far we’ve fallen as a nation that this **** won a landslide.
Was there any other option? The leader of the opposition wouldn’t use nukes and didn’t look like he bowed for long enough at the cenotaph.We elected him, though, and we get what we deserve. Absolutely incredible how far we’ve fallen as a nation that this **** won a landslide.
The fact those were the options only serves to underline my point about our decline.Was there any other option? The leader of the opposition wouldn’t use nukes and didn’t look like he bowed for long enough at the cenotaph.
I have real issues with Corbyn - but at the time I concluded that the HoC would keep a lid on his far left / pacifist ideology and he was a safer bet than BJ. I genuinely think the country would be better of with Corbyn as PM now. A much softer brexit or no brexit at all and he would have nationalised some stuff but the majority of Labour MPs would have blocked him going to far. In fact it would have come to a head and we'd be in a similar space now.Was there any other option?

I’m by no means a Corbynite. He is a man of principle though. Whatever he believes in, he isn‘t ashamed of it and backs it.I have real issues with Corbyn - but at the time I concluded that the HoC would keep a lid on his far left / pacifist ideology and he was a safer bet than BJ.

Hey I still voted for CorbynThe fact those were the options only serves to underline my point about our decline.
You think a choice between him and Johnson speaks well of us as a nation?Hey I still voted for Corbyn
