He's a shitstain, who needs to be scrubbed down the S Bend.
Sacking Gove is a petty act of vindictive revenge... The last act of possibly the worst man to hold the office of Prime Minister. The damage to the Conservatives is severe, one wonders if a vicious and untrammelled leadership election might risk the party actually falling apart.
A certain amount of Karma for the Conservatives here, after all they did know the guy was a wrong un. "Whom the Gods would destroy, they first make mad"

Having survived today, I'm struggling to believe Boris is going to go quietly if/when the 1922 change the rules next week and the Tories finally no confidence him.
He's not a lunatic. You may disagree with his actions but they have a logic to it. There also might be a fairly sized chunk of the population who admires him for fighting back. Reading through the Twitter comments (always a bad move), there's a bit more support than you might think.
Re being hated etc etc, the Tories are six percentage points behind Labour, Yes, Davey is winning by-elections. Think he''ll do well when he's asked in a GE "what's a woman" and stumbles like SKS does?
I think he will eventually go but I don't think he should resign - if they want to get rid of him that much, do a VONC and show some balls.

If Starmer vonc , decent Tories should now vote for it. An impossible, painful position, but the right thing to do.
I wrote about this on the previous thread. All it would take would be Sir Beer Korma sharing a platform with Sir Graham Brady Old Lady and clearly telling the public that Labour won’t seek a GE - they are just doing it for national interest.
Look what happened the last time Labour got together with the Tories on the same platform of 'national interest'. In Scotland in 2014. And what happened in 2015.
If any party should commit electoral suicide, it should be the Tories. Their chunder, their need to clean up the technicolor yawn.

Why? Her Majesty will be putting her feet up watching Midsomer Murders on repeat telling the Tory Party it is up to them to remove their leader not her and Boris he cannot have a general election without a parliamentary vote first.
She will then let them fight it out between them while she watches Wimbledon tomorrow on TV and tell them to call back once one of them has won

Gove is —— WAS —— about the only effective minister left. Effectively operating what could be said to be the governments domestic policy.
Gove was also doing reasonably well at sorting out the cladding crisis. Going after the companies who constructed the sub-standard buildings, rather than the poor leaseholders who bought them. The stuff he was coming up to solve the crisis wasn't perfect, but way, way, way better than the loathesome Jenrick who came before him.
Gove's attitude towards the whole cladding / leasehold debacle warmed me to him substantially. One of the few front line politicians of the Johnson era I actually respect.
Gove is a great loss to the civil service. He’s an excellent executive who plans well, is across his brief, and devises and executes good plans well. Sadly, when put in a position he’s ideologically blinkered over he executes terrible plans to perfection.
Executes, yes. Devises, rather less so.
The other issue is his utter inflexibility, which isn't just ideology. He genuinely believes he and his mates are brilliant and experts are thick.
I think that’s unfair, Gove has genuinely good ideas from time to time and he is quite smart. It’s just when he gets his teeth into a bad idea you know he’ll see it through to the stupid conclusion.
The PM’s priority is to stabilise the government, set a clear direction for the country and continue to deliver on the promises he made and the British public voted for.

Charles would probably have made his views clear in a public broadcast weeks ago but she is wider and she'll need political cover first.
So the 1922 voting no confidence and Boris refusing to go, or a VoNC in HMG in the House but an alternative government being immediately offered to her so she can deny a general election until the new leader/PM is in place and taken a view.
If Starmer vonc , decent Tories should now vote for it. An impossible, painful position, but the right thing to do.
I wrote about this on the previous thread. All it would take would be Sir Beer Korma sharing a platform with Sir Graham Brady Old Lady and clearly telling the public that Labour won’t seek a GE - they are just doing it for national interest.
Yes. But following a VONC it is Boris who goes to HM not GB or SKS. HM may or may not dissolve parliament. Especially as there is no clear person to call for to form a government (Tories all over the place on this) GE probably the only option.
How can a party that dispatched a political colossus like Maggie so brutally be making such a balls up of getting rid of a loser like Boris?
I think the prism of 24 hour news changes impressions. It took two attempts to get Thatcher and the second time around she was going to go “on and on”. This is day one of attempt two on Boris.
The PM’s priority is to stabilise the government, set a clear direction for the country and continue to deliver on the promises he made and the British public voted for.
Thing is this is always how it has to be. You fire a bunch of people for one reason (Brexit to start with) and then you realise that the only way you can try to remain in control is to keep on firing them.
Because you have no compelling arguments or in this case policies.

The Tory MPs fucked it a few weeks ago when they didn't vote him out. There was never going to be any recovery, even then. It was only going to get worse and yet the fucked it. All those payroll idiots resigning now had the chance. Bunch of absolute c***s. They have fucked this country over and now we need swift action from the cabinet to force him out tonight.
Especially since it surely destroys his chances of survival.
Incidentally, Gove is of course the only person left to have served continuously since 2010, although he was briefly technically outside the cabinet in 2014-15.
Is there anything in the recall petition rules that allows the voters of Uxbridge to rid us of this troublesome beast?
Not at this stage. Potentially, he may be suspended from the House for ten days or more for misleading Parliament over Partygate. But that's some way off, and he'll be long gone by then.
Well it shows Boris Johnson's commitment to levelling up.
I fear it may have been missed that after Gove has been sacked, there is now not a single Minister left in the Department for Levelling Up - the flagship policy of the government
I don't believe in a Monarch who is totally passive as on very particular occasions they might need to make decisions but I'm very queasy about the idea of sacking a prime minister.
What if all the permanent secretaries were to advise HM that the government can no longer function?

Mrs May fired him from the cabinet/government when she became PM.

Some of the comments over at ConHome are remarkable. There are people over there who think Boris is too soft on the EU, all his critics are secret Remoaners (good riddance to them, apparently!) and they would vote for him tomorrow. And he can set up his own Boris Party and they will join up.

Ultimately, Thatcher had enough respect for her colleagues, her country, and her reputation to take the whiskey and revolver, and step outside.
Johnson is a selfish arsehole - he's downed the scotch and shot Gove.
Once saw the difference between a bounder and a cad described thusly:
> a bounder will embezzle the mess fund, impregnate the colonel's daughter, desert the regiment - then when war is declared, return to take his medicine and join the fight.
> a cad will do the first three - and never come back.
Reckon Boris Johnson will follow the cad's path - plus ghost a book about it and take to the lecture circuit.
Even after Trump's antics in 2020 the GOP have not disappeared
Look at the polls. Boris might be Britain Trump, but the UK electorate has been repulsed by his crap in a way that hasn’t happened in the US.
This will do severe damage to a party that’s never been truly loved, but that’s supposed to be good at government.
Has it? Around a third of the electorate are still voting Tory and it was the unpopularity of the Biden administration that revived the GOP not any love for them

I genuinely feel really sorry for decent, hard-working, party members and followers who must be gutted by what is going on.
Fuck him, he voted for this prick
He didn't. If I recall correctly, he lost his nerve, contemplated resigning, then after the leadership votes were over he seemed to tacitly support BJ indirectly by defending BJ's policies when people criticised them.

I can't see anything there that reminds me of BJ
That Gove is just a four-letter word
It's the logic of a child throwing a wild tantrum.
If any party should commit electoral suicide, it should be the Tories. Their chunder, their need to clean up the technicolor yawn.
Drills you through your heart
Gove kills
Scars you from the start
She will then let them fight it out between them while she watches Wimbledon tomorrow on TV and tell them to call back once one of them has won
The first job of the new 1922 committee is to take a long, hard look at their rule book.
The PM’s priority is to stabilise the government, set a clear direction for the country and continue to deliver on the promises he made and the British public voted for.

So the 1922 voting no confidence and Boris refusing to go, or a VoNC in HMG in the House but an alternative government being immediately offered to her so she can deny a general election until the new leader/PM is in place and taken a view.
Honestly, the shit she has to deal with aged 96.
Johnson is a selfish arsehole - he's downed the scotch and shot Gove.
(Bring it on).
Because you have no compelling arguments or in this case policies.
Plus you are a lying scumbag, obvs.
Come to think of it Incitatus probably puts Nad to shame in administrative competence and just as loyal if you have a sack of carrots.
Mass resignations. Now.
Especially since it surely destroys his chances of survival.
Incidentally, Gove is of course the only person left to have served continuously since 2010, although he was briefly technically outside the cabinet in 2014-15.
What if all the permanent secretaries were to advise HM that the government can no longer function?
Mrs May fired him from the cabinet/government when she became PM.

Brew Dog asking which of the following people want put into limited production:

Bye Bye Big Dog

Clearly I'm not nearly obsessive enough about his career!
Britain's Trump has arrived and the Right's fringes have gone certifiable!
I do wonder what he was up to today on the phone......
Boris is a dorkus of the morkus porkus
Boris might be Britain Trump, but the UK electorate has been repulsed by his crap in a way that hasn’t happened in the US.
This will do severe damage to a party that’s never been truly loved, but that’s supposed to be good at government.
You need to be, not whiter than white, but also not complete and utter shits yourselves, for this sort of thing to work
> a bounder will embezzle the mess fund, impregnate the colonel's daughter, desert the regiment - then when war is declared, return to take his medicine and join the fight.
> a cad will do the first three - and never come back.
Reckon Boris Johnson will follow the cad's path - plus ghost a book about it and take to the lecture circuit.

And to be forced to wear a fucking face mask. Permanently.
Senior No 10 source putting a positive spin on struggles to fill vacant ministerial posts:
"Maybe this is a good opportunity to slim down government. We are focusing on delivering and the economy and this is an opportunity to do less better”
