Today's Confidence Vote in The Prime Minister

Posted by Peter on June 6, 2022, 17:55:38

I wrote to my local MP today following the announcement of a Confidence Vote.

I feel able to copy it below as it is Inter-Party Politics rather than Party Politics.

"Dear Sir Bill

Further to our previous correspondence on the subject of the Prime Minister's ill-advised rule-breaking during the pandemic, I am bound to say that I feel the criticism and reporting of the situation have gone beyond the bounds of credibility. It is apparent that the criticism/reporting is driven, not only by the Prime Minister's behaviour but by a number of different agendas by a selection of malcontents and so-called neutral reporters/presenters.

Those who were against Brexit and those who have either been overlooked for promotion or dismissed by the Prime Minister see an opportunity for revenge.

However, it is right that any Prime Minister should be held to account but it is regrettable that this evening's Ballet is a Secret Ballet as I would like to see who has the integrity to vote against as opposed to those who hide in the shadows.

I don't like the American-style demonisation of (any) politician regardless of Party and to this end would support the Prime Minister in this evening's vote.

Similarly, I view with horror the names of (apparent) likely candidates to replace the Prime Minister; the chief of which is Mr. Jeremy Hunt. If the Party wishes to hand the next General Election to the Labour Party, replace Mr. Johnson with Mr. Hunt.

Yours truly,"

Boris is being Tried by the Media.
They need news because Boris is an easy target as they have nothing else to talk about so go on and on.

Thinking about it they are Traitors because last week they named an MP's son who's ex British Military and fighting with the Ukrainians. They announced he helped kill a Russian General/Commander so now the Russians are after him.Russia has sleepers in the UK and may get their revenge by killing the lads parents.
Thats just one example of how they tell the Russians what should be secrets. They are telling them we are sending long range rockets ? WHY?

I sincerely hope that Boris survives this ridiculous vote of confidence, if he doesn't survive the vote I hope that Jeremy Hunt is not the replacement, if he were to be voted in Leader it would be a nightmare scenario as no doubt he would slowly, slowly take us back into the EU via some devious means.

There is no obvious person to replace Boris, just wish Lord Frost was standing in one of the up coming elections as to my mind I think he would be quite a good leader.

He should be kicked out, why make excuses for him and the rest of them that were partying. My brother died and we couldn't give him a good send off all had to go home because of these toffs who think they are above the law don't know how anybody can defend him.

Davy, I had to have a funeral for my late mum during the pandemic, I was only allowed to have 9 mourners at the funeral, no wake afterwards, whether or not Boris had a party would not have stopped my mum passing away.

I have said before Boris almost died during the pandemic he and his other members of staff, working in Downing Street, kept the country going, they worked tirelessly to get the vaccines ready, if they had a glass of wine from time to time then so be it, in fact one of the photos shows a table with a few sandwiches on it together with cans of coke if that constitutes a party, what a party!!!

It was still more than those obeying the very same rules Boris imposed on others but believed didn't apply to him.

Boris made the rules then broke the rules to suit himself ,the karaoke machine must have been under the table, and as for a glass of wine after a hard day may have been understandable sending emails out arranging get togethers "bring your own wine " was the order of the day ,the way these Mps treat the staff and security was deplorable and this is the man you are defending ! He is a liar and not fit to hold office and as this expression of "let's move on " can you trust a man like this to get on with running our country I think not I agree with you Davy how on earth can you defend him .

Rubbish, you can't make the rules up and fine people then break them yourself. Nearly died your having a laugh he was nowhere near it bout of flu. biggest con ever put over on the people for the profit of the big drug companies.

........and your views will be the same if the Leader of the Labour Party and/or his Deputy are found to have transgressed?

If Starmer and co are guilty they should be out on their ears. I do think Boris is on borrowed time now, he has as many enemies inside the party than out of it, they can render whatever he tries to do ineffective should they choose to, its going to be interesting over the next month or two.

There was no parties as we would think of as a party. They were staff. having drinks after work. Most working until late evening. It’s been blown out of all proportion, by the haters. I don’t want to defend Boris, but the hate for him from some politicians and people is depressing.

Like I said before, was Boris the only one at the party, cos there's never been other people mentioned.

Have to agree with you Sheila. It became a witch hunt out of all proportion.

There were 126 fines issued in total by the Met for in all eight "events" held at Downing St. between May 2020 & April 2021, so there are plenty who have gone under the radar although Sunak has been mentioned.

Peter, my thoughts about Starmer, saying he will resign if he is fined are, he has either been assured he won’t be fined, or he just wants to step down.

I agree with you Sheila, nobody in their position would put their job in jeopardy like that. Starmer is all mouth, why has he not resigned now, the same man was banging on to Boris to quit under investigation.

I read a comment someone made in answer to an article about Boris. “ All he has to do is, cut taxes, cut public sector work force, cut immigration, get rid of the loony left within our schools and he will walk the next election”. I cannot disagree.

Good Heavens, Sheila, surely you can't be suggesting that the beatific, Holier-than-Thou Leader of Her Majesty's Official Opposition is anything less than pure in thought and deed?!?

Peter,I am, although Mr Starmer was pictured looking very happy last night, perhaps not so happy today 😀

He is worried not only by the impending outcome of the Durham Police investigation but also because the time is shortly to be upon us when he will need to specify what he actually stands for..........if that's ok with Ms. Rayner of course.

Sheila you think you can vindicate his actions by having the last word on him. You Will go on and on till you clear his name in your mind, but he is a liar and a hypocrite who should be sacked from the job simple as that.

Well Davy,I must quote what you once said to me and that was “Did I ask your opinion”.

100% agree GeordieboyNS. As I said previously, I despair, especially of the disloyal Tory MPs.

Liz, you are so right. What I have read today, BBC,Sky and Peston, on ITV, if you can bare to follow him, are all remainers, and still want a second vote to get us back into the EU.

Unfortunately there are a lot of prople who still can't accept the result of the Referendum, Sir Keir Starmer being one of them, heaven help us if the Labour Party get into power with SKS in charge as he will undoubtedly take us back into the EU through the back door!!!
