Another Brexit rat fucks off to leave others to clean their shit. Tributes pour in

Boris Johnson accepts responsibility for North Shropshire byelection mauling

But, of course, it wasn't actually his fault

Johnson saying that he takes full responsibility is of course completely meaningless. He has never taken responsibility for anything in his entire life. It’s just another casual Johnson lie.

So Frost resigned because he disagreed with Plan B.

Happy to take an active part in making our lives considerably worse off through Brexit, but a piece of cloth over the mouth was just too much to ask.

Contemptible individual.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Frost has chucked the full Steve Baker at it. Taxes, net zero too.

This isn't a resignation, it's a GB News audition.

I'd love it if Johnson replaced him with Liz Truss or Gove. Who does he put there? The members won't want a Steve Barclay put there.

Well... here's the article if you want to read it:

Highest-rated comment so far? Pure Gammon bait/epic cuntery.

I think the Plan B excuse is nonsense. If Frost was anywhere sorting out the Northern Ireland protocol he would have stuck it out to take all the plaudits. He either knew that he was going nowhere or that Johnson was about to cave.

Loyal ministers have been trying to prop up Johnson by claiming that he is still the right man for the job because 'he got Brexit done.' He clearly didn't get Brexit done and with Frost gone the negotiations over Northern Ireland will be set back even further.

For Johnson, taking full responsibility means going "Sorreee" while shuffling his feet.

...with his fingers crossed behind his back thus making it not count.

David Gauke is on good form.

Like rats in a sack.

These people are fucking lunatics

And dangerous.

But hilarious. Its like a hard left outfit imploding. Is Len and Andrew Murray in this Brexit group?

[davidjay]

If that's true the implications are off the scale, not least that one of them is happy to be lobbing the rest under the bus.

Geoffrey Clinton-Brown's constituency voted Remain, nice to see him in there with the worst Brexit headbangers. Though he's at least trying to calm it down, I suppose, though I don't share his diagnosis that Johnson needs an advisor he can trust. Such an advisor might like a boss they can trust.

Nice of Marcus Fysh to talk about the radical supply side Brexit. That's not what they were told in Blyth Valley.

The ERG loons will be on the PM’s back if someone vaguely sane replaces Frost. They are already and predictably the Tories look like they’re heading back to the Major bastard years.

Looks like Momentum were right, they’re not sold on neoliberalism in Stoke

[Tubby Isaacs]

Ha ha.

I had to look up who she was. Olivia Utley apparently.

Related to Tom, by any chance?

Yesterday Johnson was getting advice on leadership from Iain Duncan-Smith. Today Dan Hodges is telling Johnson that if he sticks to his guns and avoids any more Covid restrictions his popularity will quickly improve.

Omicron has thrust Boris into political purgatory. But it also gives him a route to redemption – and it's one he has to take



Hodges does admit that the strategy could however backfire if the NHS collapses under the strain.

Inherited all his talent.

As did Baker's Wycombe constituency, albeit pretty narrowly. You'd think they'd tone things down a bit, but nope........
