Johnson won confidence vote

Of course he would - the Tories do have a majority of seats. There's no way the Tory MPs would lose a vote of confidence. They know that many or them would get kicked out if we had GE now.

Strange how MPs that removed Johnson are applauding him and many are now lamenting this.

"Would he kick someone who's already down"
Well there was that time when he conspired to have a journalist beaten up.

"why didn't Starker get fined for the co did curry event"
Because the police twice found that no rules were broken.

Word has it that It couldn’t have been a party as Starmer was there.

You have repeated *Zuki’s error, and haven’t read the thread MerylStreep. This is about the vote of no confidence called by the Tories. Never mind.

I enjoyed the start of BJ's speech when he wondered why the Labour Party had called for a Confidence Vote. The Speaker had to point out to BJ that actually, it was the Tories who had asked for a confidence vote! Honestly. Anyone would think he was hung over from his latest party. Ms Truss, sitting besides him, looked very uncomfortable. Later on, as Starmer was giving his speech N Dories spent her time screaming that he was boring. Even Johnson looked embarrassed. What a shower.

Was it missed that I just find the Labour smirking so off putting I think that's sad though I think Borris is far from perfect but able to be an effective leader I can't imagine anything worse than Labour We are all different will have to concentrate next time !!!!

I don’t understand what you’re talking about Zuki, the motion was tabled by the Tories.

Had A look at the mps questions Borris made Labourlook like childrene silly Starmer and friends sat messing about Yes he isn't perfect but would he kick someone who's already down don't think so.Time Labour had some sense There is more to government than relishing others mistakes and why didn't Starker get fined for the co did curry event
