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.
Not if he announces it as the Tory leadership contest will be underway.
No way! People actually voted for that???
No chance, he won't have enough backing from the party.
New phone chargers for everyone!
Surely the Tories are going down at the next GE without the cult of personality that surrounds Johnson?
About time you gormless feck. Off you trot...
People/Russian Facebook bots, yeah.
Johnson declares war on the USA in 5,4,3,2.....
Wouldn't surprise me.
He'll probably manufacture some sort of national emergency, and claim he has to stay on for the good of the people.
And good news for Cummings, he'll be able to copy and paste the same tweet for Raab in a few months time.
Or holding a a shard of glass to his own neck like that episode of black mirror.
No. By tradition all ministers must be members of one of the two houses, usually Parliament i.e elected MPs. Gordon Brown started putting his mates in the House of Lords and appointing them ministers that way, but its not common.
I don't think it's legally a requirement, but it's never happened and is an unwritten rule.
Nah, nobody gives a shit. Tory 'till I die, just like it's SNP 'till I die up here. Your quality of life, your public services, your income and taxes, nobody gives a shit. We support who we support and there ain't nobody gonna change my mind!
Well done everyone! Shit, devisive politics in every corner of the UK! What a cracking bunch of wankers we are!
I don't think so. That cult of personality has probably done more harm than good for their popularity recently. They'll get a new leader, distance themselves from Johnson, claim they've changed and people will vote for them
Makes sense.
BBC headlines changing from 'will stay on' to 'wants to stay on'.
I can't believe the tories will let him stay.

I get the same feeling of dread that it could happen that I did back 7 or 8 years ago about Boris becoming PM, so yeah, that doesn't bode well...
Except with JRM, somehow, it's an even worse outcome. I'd 'happily' keep BoJo over him.
RIP
Maybe this is why she accepted the job.
I'm still hoping for a Mike Bassett "four more years" turnaround from Boris.
We've spent hundreds of years telling the world the Tories are cnuts. Now they're proving us right all on their own!
shame i’ve done my hammy otherwise i reckon i could get a run out in the cabinet.
For people like Rees-Mogg, Priti Patel and Nadine Dorries won't be part of a future government. Their careers on the front benches are over, and they know it.
What is the point in having a Deputy PM if they aren’t installed in such situations?
No way he can continue until Autumn and absolutely no need to do so for that length of time. There’s literally no ministers left so don’t even know how that works and yet again would be an example of not doing what’s best for the country in the here and now. It’s always about the Tory party.

So glad such a corrupt, facile, awful man who has dreamt all his life of being Prime Minister, has his dream end like this. In total failure and ignomy.
Beautiful.
Beautiful.
Imagine what people thought of him - given he is utterly useless, stupid and architect of the dumbest political decision in history.
has anyone thought of how many ukrainian soldiers will down tools now that their hero and saviour, bojo, is going?
statement at midday. must need 90 mins to rip the copper out of the walls on his way.
He's known as The Master by the Tories. They fear him massively.
I keep refreshing this thread and it doesn't disappoint. Trying to follow all that's going on while at work literally means I'm not doing any work.
I'm fairly sure that puts me like 4th in line to be next PM

Bye Boris. Back to hosting Have I Got News For You?
