Hindsight? Right now their is incontrovertible evidence of Johnson fucking up and yet he's riding high in the polls. From now on the restrictions are going to ease up, so hopefully the worse is over, both for us and for him.

Come back in two years time and see if they're clamouring for an enquiry then? Besides, the Conservatives don't give a fuck now and they won't in 2022. Sad day when grandad died in Salford two years ago, but he didn't vote Tory and neither did his kith and kin, so no worries for Johnson.

you seem to have misunderstood my post. They aren’t going to be clamouring for an inquiry, quite the opposite. But they will, I suspect, recognise that it is inevitable. The damage if they don’t will be worse than if they do.

you’re wrong about the conservatives by the way. They give a massive fuck about getting re-elected. What else they give a fuck about is a different matter.

Getting elected is so far and away what they care about everything else is but a distant second.

Like Trump, the Vote Leave version of the Conservative Party are now all in. By that I mean that they cannot afford to lose power and have all their wrong doings put under the spotlight. Disgrace and potential incarceration are massive motivators. They will therefore do anything and everything to hold onto power.

I fully expect them to be re-elected given the supine nature of the UK electorate.

I did not misunderstand your post.

I think it's fair to say that you and I see a very different political trajectory over the next five years.

I'd be more than happy if you're right on this one, but I do not believe you are.

Remember the Russia report?
 
The "haha you lost and you better suck it up" might make you feel like you're on the winning team but it doesn't address the point that he's coward, out of his depth and the incompetence of him and his government is killing people. Taunting me and anyone else about it doesn't solve any of those problems. Maybe tell me something he's good at instead? (Apart from lying and going missing)

I know he's here to stay for a long time. It won't stop me criticising his failings though. Why you and so many other people refuse to see through him whist the country goes to shit I'll never know. He doesn't care about you and he doesn't care about the country. The bodies are stacking up and by the time he's done with Brexit nobody will have a pot to piss in either.

He's a conman and not even a very good one. He's done a number on you and a lot of other people though.
Lol.
 
which is why I expect that (a) there will be an inquiry, and (b) it will throw the government’s chief scientists under a bus. If the government don’t find a scapegoat the public will, and it will be the government. Johnson knows this, and knows that his actions do not look good when judged with hindsight.

I think you are right just like the Grenfell inquiry - everyone to blame but the government. It will take at least a year after this to start one, then 2 years to complete and finally a year to publish a heavily redacted report to surface - courtesy of Failing Grayling.
 
The inept way this government has handled the Covid-19 pandemic goes to shows that Boris Johnson's it's not fit to lead the country.
