I have to take exception with the tweeters âno cost of living crisis for the Johnsonsâ - there obviously was otherwise he wouldnât have had to go around begging Party donors to cover the bill.
I bet Boris wished he âdid detailâ before her ladyship signed that order off.
What happens to all that shite now he has to fuck off - does he own it? Do we?
Iâm hoping my request for the two sofas will be successful. Weâre refurnishing the East Wing of Slowlane Mansion at the moment and seeing as I consider Iâve already paid for them Iâm hoping my request will be sympathetically received.
I quite fancy the antique wing back chair
Cheers for that.
I have one at the clubâŚthoroughly recommended.
Sir Graham Brady and the 1922 Committee are reportedly furious at being conned yesterday by Johnson. He contacted Brady yesterday morning and told him that there was no need to change the rules and call for another VONC because he was going to announce his resignation. Then went out to the lectern and announced only that he was resigning as Party leader, and hinted that he would resign as PM sometime in the next few months, so heâs still there, plotting. Those still loyal to him, (Cleverly to the fore), are pushing back on attempts to speed up any leadership elections, so this could go on for months with him squatting, and plotting his next moves. Interestingly, itâs been pointed out that not having lost a no confidence vote means that there is nothing in the rules to stop Johnson standing for Party leader, all he needs is 32 sponsors, which he would have no trouble getting, and his name goes in. If heâs still in the running when it got to the blue rinse brigade of Party members, who adore him, having their say heâd be a shoe in.
Far fetched? Probably, but this is Boris Johnson we are talking about, put nothing past him. One thing is for sure, he wonât be going quietly, you can bank on that. The fools should have insisted on drumming him out the door yesterday, now they,(and we) are stuck with him for the foreseeable future, causing chaos. Already we are seeing history being re-written, the sight of his new cabinet lining up yesterday applauding him, giving interviews saying he is âstepping down with dignityâ, praising his âsense of dutyâ, and his âremarkable achievementsâ, just a few hours after resigning using phrases like âdishonestâ, âcorruptâ, âliarâ, and all the rest of it was absolutely vomit inducing. Likewise the BBC and the rest of the media.
This isnât over yet, not by a long way.
The Reform? Maybe The Carlton? I do hope you arenât one of the gentlemen who stand under the staircase at âCadâs Cornerâ!
I fear that he will spend the intervening months constructing Mecha-Boris, an armoured exoskeleton.
But not that much.
Wouldnât be seen dead in The CarltonâŚitâs The Reform for me when Iâm in London.
I always try to sit in the Wing Chair that member Henri Cartier-Bresson used to sit, in the hope some of his photographic skill will be absorbed.
Never understood this phrase because the demise of life coincides with the demise of decision-making abilities.
If someone wants to wheel my corpse to a Wetherspoons in a TESCO trolley, how the fuck do I stop them?
You put up one UNHOLY STINK!
Just came across this footage of Sir Basil Slowlane taking tea and tiffin at The Reform, having a deep and meaningful discussion about important matters of state with one of his chums.
Dash it all, I just knew you would find that.
