The fact that he has been appointed so many times says a lot about the Conservatives… Oh, wait! These are the guys who chose Boris Johnson as their leader!

Can’t come soon enough!

I just hope he stops being Prime Minister very quickly so the length of his tenure is even shorter than Theresa May’s, making his humiliating resignation even more enjoyable. 
And he's still hanging around. Just leave, will you?!

His sense of entitlement knows no limits. He went to Eton and Oxford to be King of the World, so who are you, mere peasant, to say otherwise?
I went to Houghton Kepier and Northumbria. Next question?

Coeducational schools are not for leaders, just for followers! Anything out of Oxbridge is rubbish!!!
Joking aside, I am also a child of coeducational state schools, a comprehensive in my case, and proud of it. Happy to say my daughter is attending a state non-faith school too.

Shame the great British public was not reading things like these back in 2019...

Here's a list of the contenders:
Who will replace Boris Johnson?
Tory MPs are vying to become the next party leader and prime minister - but who are they?

None of them will get my vote, but Tom Tugendhat would at least get my respect. Moderate and not tainted by being associated with the clown's government.

He has ruled himself out. He has probably realised that the people who will be having the final say (i.e., the Conservative party members) are a bunch of loonies and he did not stand a chance.

We’re going to see some real oddball candidates in the next few days. I reckon a lot of it is so they can withdraw and put their ‘support’ behind someone else and then jockey for a cabinet position.

So true. I think some of the candidates are either banking on that or they do not seem to be aware of who would be making the final decision: old white people living in the South of Englang who see the past through rose-tinted glasses and have a dislike of foreigners.
