The people have spoken, Boris and his party have lost two important by elections. Boris's own MPs were too frightened to get rid of him so the public have taken over and are going to do it for them.
Also the resignation of Oliver Dowden sent the Tories a message.
No Tory seat is safe anymore. These By election results will seep like poison through the Tory parties blood stream The exuses will start to be heard . But statistics are hard to ignore. This could be the beginning of the end of power for the Tories for decades. I hope.

In British politics there are now two blocs, the Tories and the anti-Tories. Take Tiverton. In the last two elections, Labour came second there. But in this by-election, they lost their deposit as their vote share dropped by 16 per cent. This isn’t because voters in rural Devon are particularly unpersuaded by Keir Starmer but because anti-Tory voters...

Gulliver, 16.06 fri, Silly post. Anyone here who has the sense to pay attention will know I don’t believe in God.
//At the moment, the polls suggest that the left block of the electorate – Labour, Liberal Democrats and Greens – is around 60 per cent. If these voters vote tactically, the results will be devastating for the Tories.//

Yeah - but since the left can't organise a drinks party in a brewery that's VERY unlikely to happen!

//fatti: "ToraToraTora,
What happened to the list I asked for? You’ve had over 3 hours! Pmsl. " - see my answer at 14:49.//

Nope, no list in there either. That’s because there isn’t one is there? Certainly not in contrast to the list I gave you.
Wonder why there are so many Tories wanting him gone? It’s because they know he’s achieved nothing too.
Keep trying old chap, though I suspect you’ll be some time.
it's just happened in two constituencies, davebro.

The point is, as Gulliver said, the left hasn't organised it. Voters have done it off their own bat.
This "typical mid-term results" business is just a load of twaddle, in this instance. I can't remember any mid-term bye elections where the incumbent PM was a proven lying, lawbreaker who, because of that, had to apologise to the House of Commons and the country.

But Johnson will continue to take the pi ss out of everyone because that is his ultimate goal - to see how much he can get away with whilst remaining in power. To him, it's all a game. He couldn't care less about the British people.

We keep hearing the Tories saying all of that is behind us now. We should focus on the job in hand and try to improve things for everyone. I agree with that, but why does anyone think that Johnson is the man to spearhead that?
