To a certain extent that works but like Trump and far right populist the hardcore cult following isn't that big. At some point the moderates who lent you there fault start seeing the mask slip and it all starts to unravel.

Trump lost the election by about 20,000 votes, after 4 years of blatant corruption, lies, abhorrent behaviour and literal crimes with half his staff having been arrested and indicted.

You don't need a hardcore cult following, 70,000,000 Americans vote for anyone with an (R) next to their name, no matter who that person is.

And as this country slides more and more towards American politics, there are tens of millions of people who will vote Conservative no matter who, just because they're not Labour.

And they will do that no matter how many times this government treats them like shit. This latest scandal won't do anything, the next poll will show conservatives up even more than 2 weeks ago.
 
Yes this *should* be the end of this lot. But it won't be. That's not how populism works.

Look at Trump - the guy literally staged a coup and an attack on the heart of the nation's democracy in which people died and he's still talking about running again in 2024.

Johnson could kick an old granny in the head and he'd still get away with it.

Agreed about our slide into American style politics. But I don't think the UK will accept it, we don't have the equivalent of Fox or Briebart, there isn't the split in media coverage like the USA. Pretty much everyone is condemning them /him.

Which reminds me, let's see what gb news or whatever they were called are saying about it.
 
Mate we all need Johnson out, he is a clown
There are millions of people who take no interest in politics because they see the subject as "boring". However they have a vote and when they see a party led by an interesting character they vote accordingly. The Monster Raving Loony Party doesn't get their votes as the party name is a giveaway. But the Tories, led by a monster raving loony, benefits from having a collection of clowns in the cabinet.
