I've got his list of supporters here, Paigntonian.

Let's see ... Sir Robert Peel, Mickey Mouse, Aristophanes, Lord Snooty, Carrie Johnson (signed in her absence), William Shakespeare, Winston Churchill, Elmyr de Hory, Spartacus ... just the usual gang, really.

i doubt very much that he has put the country before himself… if he thought he could win then he would run.

[Peter Pedant]

Well done Johnson. Country ahead of self-interest.
for once
in fact I dont believe it -Bo bo doesnt DO things for the country
( just himself. to complete for some ABers, sometimes I wonder if they know they are alive and other times I dont wonder)

[FatticusInch]

Jno,
You missed out Mad Nad and her herd of cats.

[Peter Pedant]

Cincinnatus - who cd forget him?
Cleopatra - all hail great queen
James VI &I - swings both ways
Queen Charlotte - the one who had a lorra lorra kids
Princess Amelia, who didnt

jno: You're spot on, though you may have omitted Captain Pugwash and Top Cat. As Private Eye continually points out: "I think we should be told".

[Paigntonian]

Sunak by tomorrow night, rather than Tuesday morning.

[weecalf]

How could he pull out if he never was in it .Yeah Boris tell us about it .

[Hopkirk]

He's still lying.

[FatticusInch]

My thoughts are with gulliver at this sad time for him …

[diddlydo]

I bet TTT is licking his wounds.

[jennyjoan]

well I am very not into Politics but do think Boris did the right thing for himself personally and his family. He was ripped to pieces and if he had gone forward - he still would have been ripped to pieces

[FatticusInch]

^Cant wait to see what the next avatar will be if Rishi wins.

[jennyjoan]

to tell ye the truth - none of them can cope ie Tories, Sunak, Penny , Labour Keir Starmer - it is all a stab in the dark for every single one of them and I wouldn't wish my worse enemy on any of them.

I don't recall (in my day) a great Prime Minister and when I croak it - I never will.

Nobody but nobody can do the job when there is so much against them from the word "START". Won't happen

I will never vote ever again

[naomi24]

JJ, I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, you are one of the smartest people around - and I mean that. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

This I predicted and it comes as no surprise. Good luck, Rishi.

[Paigntonian]

Jenny: If you're never going to vote again then you don't have the moral right to criticise our leaders of whatever Party.

[Paigntonian]

I, too, send my best wishes to Gulliver at this sad time for him.

[Gromit]

When reality slaps in, he was never going to get 100 supporters when he was demonstrably fecking useless and inept.
Sunak the next PM, Boris minister for NI or some other unwanted position.
