Lots of people saying it's the last chance for Boris . . . probably many of the same people that said Brexit wouldn't happen, England would win the World Cup, and the Scots will gain independence

Three : They ruled from 1997 - 2010.
(from 1997 to 2005 they had the largest majority since the 1930's).

This was clearly a "protest" vote.
Labour also lost out (even worse really, they lost more than 50% of their votes).

Labour, which came second in the constituency at the 2019 election, saw its share of the vote fall from 22.1% to 9.7%.

Re: Will Johnson be PM in 2022?
I don't think he'll last the year. Certainly doesn't deserve to last the year.

Most of the voters didn’t get the party they wanted in the General Election but got them anyway (to quote itshim)…

2022 will be interesting.
Unlike The Times, the Conservative Party has not sacked him for lying.
So he may well see it through.
Interesting times...

Yes but Boris wrote them all so it would be self-incriminating 
I genuinely believe we will see him in court one day. Which court and on which charge is the question , there's many possibilities......

If your assertion is correct - that most voters get the Liberal Democrats but don't vote for them - then surely the government in power would be Liberal Democrat and not Conservative?
