Cable Forum - Updated: Boris resigns as party leader

Keir still as leader and a new conservative leader, is the best thing for the Tories in 2024 GE. I didn’t want Starmer going anywhere, so good news, for the Tories. :D

Whether one liked Boris Johnson or not he won a 80 seat majority and was charismatic to a good many voters even though it turned very sour in the end.

Sometimes the grass is not that greener on the other side.

He’s not that funny, sadly.

With timing this good, Durham Police should be doing a turn at the Fringe.

We’re on a forum - that’s most of what we do… ;)

Why do you keep asking for links then?

Speculation should be permitted on any discussion forum, but not at the expense of the truth as they see it.

Because hopefully, the speculation should be informed - you should try it…. ;

In that specific case, her speculation was informed, as she had been his mistress for four years, and was pregnant twice by him.

"truth as they see it"? Interesting concept.

btw, "keep asking for links"? I have asked once this year…

No fines for beergate what a farce, I demand a reinvestigation.

To be fair, Durham Police have got it right.

Pity the Met was involved in Boris’s case. I note they are now in special measures. It’s about time.
