Heard the news? He has refused to go.

He takes arrogance to a new level.

Beginning to think he’s lost the plot.

Beyond parody now.

I’m beginning to think he works for the Russians!!

The longer it goes on, the more the similarities between him and Trump grow, apart from looks. Both are in denial that they have lost their appeal and people are turning away from them.

How Boris can look at the opinion polls for his party and himself, both plunging downwards at a vertiginous pace, and say that the Conservatives cannot win an election without him, is taking being in denial to Trumpian heights.

I’m beginning to think he works for the Russians!!

Don't even joke about it!!

Petronella Wyatt, one of Boris's ex mistresses ,is offering some insights into his character in the Mail and on Twitter today.

"Boris has undoubted talent and charisma, but is sadly bereft of humility or a sagacious apprehension of the realities of a modern democracy."

"Boris's obsession with his own divine right will tear apart his party and cause collateral damage to the country."

He once told me that he idolised medieval kings because they didn't 'have to bother with voters' and had 'a free pass to do as they pleased'

'In the universe of Boris, he is king, not Prime Minister. '

'I even recall his once saying to me that most Conservative voters were 'dunderheads' and 'not worth bothering about.'

I have nothing but absolute contempt for the man and his ever decreasing circle of followers.

I hope he's not trying/hoping for a popular backlash... a sort of man of the red wall people being driven out by the metropolitan elite.

A Trumpian tactic.

It has suddenly occurred to me why he is refusing to go - he needs the money!

Unlike Sunak, Javid, Zahawi, even Rees-Mogg, he didn't make a pile before he came into Parliament and with a wife and heavens knows how many children to support. He desperately needs every penny of the PM's salary. He also doesn't have any home to go to.

So if he goes, bang goes the money, he has got to support his many obligations out of an ordinary members of parliamets salary.

That or is waiting for one/some of the wealthy members to club together to offer him a sum of money so large that he cannot refuse it.

He’s just sacked Michael Gove!

And there’s another resignation coming…..

He’s mad….

Bugs Bunny style 'This means War!'

That was a dangerous thing to do. Gove is clever man with a devious mind, neither of which apply to Johnson, though he would like to think they do.

I think that's exactly what he's doing. When he was questioned earlier there was a lot of 'I don't want to talk about this. People are fed up with talking about this stuff. What ordinary people want is me getting on with the job.'

It's Civil War in the Tory Party.

He’s sacked Michael Gove - who’s next.

But that is like a stuck record now.

“Those who God seeks to destroy, he first makes mad” or something similar.

Riverwalk, it wouldn't work. The Red Wall is crumbling.

He no longer has a following, in Parliament, in the constituencies, or in the wider public. Just look at the polls

It may have to end with a siege. How long could he hold out in no.10 if we refuse him food and booze?

No surprise.

One thing he does have is a home to go to, Carrie and the children allegedly moved out of Downing Street a while ago to their Camberwell pad. He’s also got a country house.
