And what sort of opposition is that? It needs to be replaced too.

It will be replaced by the Tory opposition. Labour will form the next
government.

You really are living in cloud cuckoo land if you truly believe that.

difficult to take anything you say seriously if you are that out of

We'll see whether I'm right, in the fulness of time. The electorate will
have a difficult choice to make, that's certainly true. The incompetent
boorish Etonian, the elderly Marxist terrorist sympathiser and extremist
or the arrogant Head Girl of the Lib Dems who wants to discard all Leave
voters. I think ultimately the Labour manifesto will get the most
support.

The Tories would do a lot better if they could find a way of getting rid
of Boris Johnson before the election

That's a Labour fantasy. The Tories know they have a proven winner in
Boris. Labour knows that he is immensely more popular with the public
than the 'elderly Marxist terrorist sympathiser and extremist', and is
therefore extremely dangerous to their election prospects. They would
love to see the end of Boris; they can't win unless they gat it.

But they won't.

That's a Tory fantasy. Boris has always been much more popular with Tory
voters than with the electorate at large.

And yet he did manage to be mayor, twice.

And - oh dear, poor BJ. It's leaking away.

A third of voters €” 33 per cent €” now believe that the prime minister is
competent, according to the latest YouGov survey for The Times.

What matters is that Corbyn is much worse.

That is down from 41 per cent three weeks ago. At that time 52 per cent
also believed that he was strong, but that figure, too, has fallen, to 46
per cent.

Still leaves Corbyn for dead on all of those.

Sixty-one per cent of voters believed Mr Johnson to be decisive at the
start of the month but only 54 per cent do now.

Still leaves Corbyn for dead on all of those.

but since the man does not have the integrity to tender his resignation
that won't be possible.

Why should he resign? He ventured into uncharted waters, which even the
English High Court said would be OK, unfortunately got into difficulties,
and was only told *after the event* that he shouldn't have done it.

Wrong. As I've explained to you before, the English High Court said that
the issue is non-justiciable. It didn't say that his behaviour was okay.
Once you concede that the issue is justiciable

It isnt.

you are driven to the conclusion (as stated clearly in the Supreme Court
judgment) that he has offered no explanation let alone a reasonable
explanation for proroguing the House for a long period.

He doesnt need to, because its non justiciable,

His behaviour is inexcusable.

Plenty disagree.

He should have the courage to resign,

He's not that stupid.

but Boris "King of the World" Johnson would never resign.

How odd that he did when Foreign Minister.
