The BB has now said he'll vote against Sunak's NI deal. So he might have the whip withdrawn anyway, if Sunak has the balls to do it.

As will Liz Truss, Priti Patel, IDS...

Tories tearing themselves apart

Yeah think this needs to be discussed more, so not only have they cured unemployment (how can you be unemployed as Employers are lovely people, no such thihg as unemployment blackspots anymore etc), there are now no sick people anymore either...just potential homeworkers..

People who can work from home.

So even if they have two herniated discs, severe disc degeneration, oedema up the wazzoo and are about to go back on 8 cocodomol a day and have a dizzy time of it.. (off the 8 paracetemol and 10% ibuprofen gell, that isn't cutting it anymore).

"We are asking them what they can do not what they can't" says the government..." whilst strengthening the sanctioning system" (whilst hiding and sitting on reports sanctioning people doesn't work and is self defeating).

So nothing like a soundbite, that is going to kill tens of thousands of people.

Yesterday's trip down the dole was fun,

"So you are now some sort of probation service for the unemployed poor and sick"says I, " metering out punishments, if the sick can't work...because they are too sick or in too much pain"?

Expecting her to say no.

"Yes that's exactly how we see ourselves, probation services..

"But I haven't commited any crime, the kid who hit me with his car probably did and he is having a great time".

What country would have this, whilst they are distracting you about small boats they are coming straight after the sick (sorry "homeworkers") again, and throwing them all on the fire.

The irony is that by ditching these scumbags, the party as a whole would probably bounce in the polls, as they'd cut the extreme right wing nutters off at a stroke. The problem is that this is probably the group that holds the most sway over the membership

Blimey! Steve Baker has turned full circle.

I think that the penny has finally dropped that he's poison, but it may be too late, like the former Trump cheerleaders in the GOP who are now renouncing him like the Party leaders do with Beria at the end of The Death of Stalin.

It would be quite warming to see absolutely everyone turn their back on him, except Mad Nads who'll be dropping to her knees with her mouth open as usual.

Another total shitshow of a PMQs, Tories braying and laughing at the most serious of questions while Sunak just throws blame around at everyone else

And can't tell if this BBC News tweet was posted in irony but more likely just following directives from "upstairs"

...often working late into the night

Who does he think will believe that?

He takes his boozing and shagging very seriously.

How much more before the BB completely loses it? Looks like he thought the dossier and a bit of blather for a few minutes and it would all go away.

I've stopped watching/listening. He really does blather on when he's rattled. How many more times is he going to be asked to stop repeating himself and make his answers shorter?
Only 4 more qquestioners to go!!!

Are the ones who are grilling him the ones who are voting?

If so, he’s farked, they are not even trying to appear balanced.

Not taking the Tories side...but The SNPs reason for existence is an exercise in sovereignty at a economic costs that would make Brexit seem like a small bump...not sure how coherent their position is.

He's thrown so many people under a bus he must be sponsored by National Express.

Tbf, this is how his life has worked up until very recently, so he can be forgiven for thinking that having to compile his dogshit dossier, in addition to the waffle that usually suffices to prevent any serious comeuppance, would be enough to get everyone to stop bothering him.

4 Conservative members 2 Labour and 1 Scottish National Party. The Tories the ones most going for his throat. Guess all but a few Tory Til' I Die BB supporters wondering what kind of collective brainfart happened when they made him leader.

Oh and right in the middle of this Rishi slips out the details of his tax payments - what timing!

So on the one hand No 10 is a cramped little hovel, that made social distancing impossible, but they defo tried their best; but the same No 10 is so vast, that the BB was completely unaware of the raucous parties, on the premises ?

And he absolutely believed these piss ups were permissible, because advisors, who he won't name told him they were, but all the advisors who have given evidence, were clear they weren't permissible ?

Has he ever been diagnosed as schizophrenic ??

Dr Wikipedia would say Narcissistic Personality Disorder

At least 5 of the following traits:-

A grandiose sense of self-importance

Preoccupation with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love

Believing that they are "special" and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)

Requiring excessive admiration

A sense of entitlement (unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with their expectations)

Being interpersonally exploitative (taking advantage of others to achieve their own ends)

Lacking empathy (unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others)

Often being envious of others or believing that others are envious of them

Showing arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes

I don't understand why he/his advisors keep doing shit like this. Everyone is going to see it anyway so why deliberately look a bit dodgy when it goes against everything he professes to do.

So, is this the end of "Boris" the personality he presents to the world, as Alexander Johnson came out from behind the mask yesterday?

I dunno what you are talking about? He was agile as a cat!

As someone has pointed out that's a bad headline for him as if there was any way to suggest he had cleared himself the Mail would be running with it. Instead they are running an opinion column on the front page..weird

So many Twitter dimwits out there calling this a "Kangaroo Court". All the Committee can do is make a recommendation which still has to be endorsed in the HoC. Even if with a successful recall petition he is suspended his seat vacated and a by-election is required he can still stand for re-election ( which his ego would no doubt make necessary for himself ). The committee could simply even consider an apology to the House as sufficient action.

Hardly a stitch-up.

You'd think by now the BB's areselickers would realize that he is becoming toxic even to many Tories yet still the like of Dorries and Rees-Mogg sticking up for the twat

The prick even said he can't understand why he was issued Fixed Penalty Notices. The whole basis of accepting a fixed penalty is that you are admitting the offence to avoid a court appearance. If he can't understand why he was issued one he should have lawyered up and gone to court.

In what kind of nation can a current sitting MP and ex departmental SoS host a TV show and openly show contempt of parliamentary process? Well, ours apparently.
At this point I reckon Dorries and Rees-Mogg want to get censured so they can claim some sort of bizarre and phoney martydom

So Liz Truss has nominated her cronies and Tory donors for HOL places.

I thought it was agreed that she wouldn't do any nominations, on account of everyone wanting to forget her brief, Leadership, as quickly as possible ?

In other Liz Truss news, she's apparently hawking herself on the Speaking circuit ....

I'm not sure how much she's going to pay members of the audience to listen to her shite on about pork markets, & cheese, but it'd need to be serious money to convince me to listen to more than 30 seconds of her moronic, insipid drivel, & then I'd have to be secured like this

Get your wallets out! Liz Truss joins the speaking circuit

Speaking agency bio says Truss ‘faced huge resistance from those who wanted to maintain the status quo.’

LONDON — How much would you pay for a motivational speech from Liz Truss?

The U.K.’s shortest-serving prime minister has signed up with a leading speaking agency – and is ready to offer insights on the “status quo” that brought her down.

Truss, who spent 49 days in the job but stepped down after market turmoil sparked by a round of controversial tax cuts, is now on the books for Chartwell Speakers, pitching insights on “leadership,” the “economy” and more.

A bio uploaded to the site acknowledges the “momentous and tempestuous” time Truss faced in office, which included not only the market rout but the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Once a lying, racist, misogynist, crooked cunt always a lying, misogynost, crooked cunt!

Seriously - he has strong narcissistic sociopathic tendencies, he is mentally ill ie:

- A grandiose sense of self-importance (i.e., exaggerates their achievements and abilities)
- A preoccupation with the idea of gaining success, power, love, and physical attractiveness
- A belief that they are special or high status and can only be understood by similar people or should only associate with those people (or institutions)
- A need for excessive admiration
- A sense of entitlement and expectation that others will comply or give them favorable treatment
- Exploits other people for personal gain
- Lacks empathy for others
- Envies others or believes that other people envy them
- Arrogant behaviors and attitudes

Some signs that a person might be a narcissistic sociopath include:

- Power hungry: People with APD and NPD enjoy being in positions of power where they can control others.
- Manipulative: People with this personality disorder will take advantage of others. They disdain people and think it's okay to exploit and dispose of others in whatever way helps them get ahead. They may use tactics such as triangulation to manipulate others and increase their feelings of supremacy.
- Non-empathetic: Narcissistic sociopaths lack empathy for other people's feelings or suffering. Because of this, they have no problem hurting others without remorse or guilt.
- Attention-seeking: They constantly seek love, attention, and adulation from others. Their narcissism leads to an inflated sense of self-importance. A sociopathic narcissist is cold and callous but will also seek the admiration of others (and will believe that they deserve it).
- Abusive: In addition to abusing people for their selfish ends, a narcissistic sociopath will respond with hostility and aggression whenever their exaggerated importance is threatened or questioned.

Led by greedy donkeys!!

The former chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng, and former health secretary, Matt Hancock, agreed to work for £10,000 a day to further the interests of a fake South Korean firm after apparently being duped by the campaign group Led by Donkeys.
Kwarteng attended a preliminary meeting at his parliamentary office and agreed in principle to be paid the daily rate after saying he did not require a “king’s ransom”. When Hancock was asked his daily rate, he responded: “It’s 10,000 sterling.”
