Probably, but one has to wonder what more damage he can still do prior to the next election.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
With a 148, you surely can’t just ignore it and all suddenly unite and move forward. That’s a significant number of your own MPs let alone everyone other MP across the aisle firmly against.
We finally have an ITK.
Do you really think he will call a GE ?
Why is that bad? He's got enough to stay in office
Nadine?
A huge number of his own MPs don't want him. That's very significant.
“It’s time to move on and focus on what the public care about”
I dont think so either.
A lot of his own MPs have no confidence in him.
I don’t personally. He’s a narcissist, he doesn’t want to go out on a big loss with the public.
He’s got a year to do what he wants. He’s going to squeeze every last drop out of his premiership before he steps down, triggers a leadership battle followed by a GE.
Some spin on this pair they should be voted out themselves
Think he will call one early next year.
At this moment, tories are still heavy favs in a snap election.
Fair play - these Tory cnuts on sky are spinning the unspinnable. A democratic vote would be all MPs voting. Let’s add those 148 to the opposition MPs that have zero confidence in him shall we? Twats.
It would be madness right now
He got 58.8% of the vote. May got 63%.
He has no class, despite posing around as a toff with his toff pals. He's completely self-serving and ruthless. He simply wants the power, he doesn't care at all about how he keeps it as long as he's in charge.
He's not bothered in the slightest about the issues facing ordinary people. He doesn't understand what it's like as he's had a life of privilege.

He'd literally have to be caught with a rentboy and even then he'd wriggle out
Surely he steps down in the morning, can’t really go on now.
Is what Bojo and the cabinet will say. And he’s the type who won’t care and just carry on. But if it was say 60-70, then those 60-70 would fall in line. With 148, they know they have a significant group. They can’t oust him but they will become a serious thorn in his backside and more division is only good for our chances of getting these dickheads out.
A handsome victory haha my arse
Tough one to spin, you almost feel sorry for those trying.
He'll lose the next two by-elections then what? He does the right thing and stands down usually but more likely he just carries on.

Stay in office with 148 of his own MP’s not wanting him is brutal
May had less against her when she won and was gone within 6 months
The U.K. might not thank me, but get the contract out, put it on the table, let him sign it, let him write whatever numbers he wants to put on there -- given what he's done since he's come in -- and let him sign the contract and go
Boris is at the wheel, man -- he's doing his thing. The Tories are back!

It’s Bojo, 0% chance this happens.
I would bet all I have that he doesn't
1922 committee can change the rules
Maybe this is the grand plan, let the Tory’s spin so much it ends the energy crisis.
So true.
I doubt that.
I honestly think he'll be thinking about a snap GE because why the feck not? Last throw of the dice, get the British public on side and see if he can save his job one last time. If not, he was on his way out anyway, and I feel like he cares more about himself than the actual conservative party.
They could , but they refused to do it after the May vote, don't see them changing it now.
Cos he’d win, albeit with a likely reduced mandate but win nonetheless.
Let’s him reset the 5 year term and all.
The beeb wesbite put the news "Boris Johnson wins vote of confidence" and as I was looking at the screen the word "wins" was replaced with "survives"
Is the Sky reporter interviewing the politicians Boris Johnson’s son? The bias is unbelievable
This in a nutshell, it was the same when he was the Mayor of London. High paying official jobs to journalists that gave him positive coverage and loads of vanity projects.
Hopefully he doesn't do too much damage before he's voted out in 2024.
