Mark my words, Boris Johnson will be gone by Christmas
Sean 0'Grady in the Independent.
no. not my words this time- but I did say it would happen quickly when it does.
... not sure it will by Christmas, but I think those behind the scenes, the donors and backers, will at some point pretty soon decide he's attracted too much criticism and negative publicity and will want him gone.
He's good for photo' opps and one-liner quips - not to mention mantras, but when it comes down to the real nitty gritty of hard work, detail, he fails - dismally IMO. I honestly don't think he was cut out to be a PM, he lacks the gravitas.
I don't care about his personal life, nor the way he looks - none of it really matters, but I do care very much about the fact that he made a mess of the Deal and that the country is suffering the repercussions, whilst he continually blames the EU for what are, largely, his own failings.
I'm sure he'll move on, unscathed, and have a very lucrative 'career' on the after-dinner speech circuit.
