There are plenty on here that leap to his defence if anyone dare say anything critical of the Chosen One too.

IMO his problem is he is a big picture and grand statement man, which is fine if you surround yourself with strong ministers who can back you up and fill in the details. Unfortunately, he has failed to do this, not entirely though his own fault but the fact the party is simply lacking this level of talent nowadays. You only have to look at the sad specimens wheeled out everyday for the 5 o'clock briefing to realise this.
I wasn't a big fan before he got elected to PM, but I don't know that anyone would have done much better, nobody seems to stand outThere are plenty on here that leap to his defence if anyone dare say anything critical of the Chosen One too.
no good to moan the public elects them so we get what most vote forISCO

Part of his problem is that he got rid of anyone from his cabinet who was critical of Brexit and is left with some poor performers.
If Theresa May had done what she promised to do Boris wouldn't have been near the job. She had one job, remember no deal is better than a bad deal? she gave us the agreement for a bad deal and left others to sort it out. Too many bailed out when they should have carried out the will of the people. Rory Stewart should have had a major role now, he was the most gifted in the Cabinet and should have been the next Prime Minister but as said, we aren't left with much.
Rory stewart ,your a comedian ,a two faced ,look at me ,i am so important weasel,who brags himself up to a position he really isnt quailified for

He got a hammering in the Commons today off Starmer,who did quite well.It will be sinking in now that it is going to be a whole different ball game with a competent opposition leader. My guess is that Johnson will try and avoid PMQ s as much as possible and get deputies to stand in for him while making any excuse up.

If Starmer gets his policies right, and only time will tell if he can control the hard left and move more to the centre into the 'Blair'ground, Boris will be dumped by the Tories and replaced long before the next election. My view is that he will soon become a liability having served his Brexit purpose.

Boris is a professional liar, that's what he has always done for a living. He is now going to have to learn to tell the truth a bit more often.
Describes them allDescribes Boris pretty well too tbh.
You're right he let himself down by sticking to his stupid principles rather than to his duty but I already sort of said that but if you look him up he was probably the most qualified and just as important, the most intelligent MP in the last Parliament but he should have kept away from the last leadership battle as he was out of step with the country on Brexit. In the wilderness now when we need his qualities.
Kier Starmer will get buried when some home truths come out , not yet though.
He certainly bragged up his own abilities

He's certainly holding BoJo's feet to the fire atm. And it was not before time that the opposition fielded a credible leader, ironically it may actually make Boris a better PM as well.
