What kind of PM would Boris be? What are his policies and are they good for the country? Will he get us out of the EU?

These are the questions we should be asking, not all this tittle-tattle. Aren't we above all that nonsense yet?

If you can't trust his word, and he is evasive and possibly putting up fake photos then he's going to be an untrustworthy PM. This will make him ineffective.

I agree with you.

Totally correct. Watch his interviews back and you see he is constantly avoiding the direct questions. He is a politician, granted but he is just really bad at it.

He is also flip-flopping: last week he said 31st Oct is "do or die", today No Deal is a million to one chance. I suppose he is playing to his target audience who don't really care what he says as long as he constantly repeats the words "No Deal".

I suppose the recent addition of UKIP supporters to the Tory party membership sort of ensures his coronation but he is doing a good job of trying to blow it.

I think that everyone has reservations about how he will conduct himself when PM, but what he does in the privacy of his (or his girl friend's home) is not my business.

Anyway, I strongly suspect that his girl friend made that picture available. And so what?

It's an old picture, they are deceiving you on a seemingly trivial matter and you don't seem to care, problem is if he can't handle something as pathetic as this what's he going to be like when something serious happens. That's without mentioniong the hypocrisy of demanding privacy one moment and then courting the press to release that grotty little propaganda snap the next

Nail on the head!

So how about Hunt? Is he any more trustworthy? What do you think of their proposed economic strategies?

When there is a crisis in his ministry whatever that ministry is he tends to disappear at the most inconvenient times.

His mr nice guy image quickly unravelled,and the country can't afford either's economic strategy,best not to promise big spends until the new chancellor gets to look at the books, Tm is as bad her legacy will be bankruptcy if the brakes aren't applied to her vanity projects.

Well both their strategies include Brexit, without a deal if necessary. Sorry but the lunatics have taken over the asylum, being PM is everything to them, Brexit everything to their evangelical support. Really don't know how people think their lives will be improved? It won't to the thousands that will lose their jobs, or for the rest of us as our economy collapses. However keep calm and carry on !

What we really should be concerned about of course is Climate Change, not poxy Brexit which is an irrelevance in comparison. We've got our priorities wrong.

Morning rant over

He's more trustworthy but only because BoJo sets the bar so low it's actually on the ground.
Both sets of economic policies are costly and a blatant attempt to buy votes.

Boris Johnsons tax policy will benefit a certain group which is not compatible with ending austerity in public spending or spending prudently with the countrys public finances.

And Jeremy Hunts economic plan could not be done without tax rises or higher borrowing.

Mr K got it right that “being PM is everything to them”. I shall vote none of the above when I get my ballot paper. It just goes to show what a shower our MPs are that a decent candidate doesn’t exist. .
