Toast 16,063 Posted June 6, 2022 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-politics-60289386/page/3 Iain Watson, Political correspondent at 8.31 Quote .... were he to win narrowly - 52/48 as one rebel put it - then some of his critics believe he will be under pressure from senior figures to end the agony and go. But that doesnt really sound like Boris Johnson. So some of the speculation at Westminster from Tory and Labour MPs alike is whether the PM would seek a new mandate and call an early election. Behind in the polls, that may sound improbable. But how many improbable things have happened in poltitics in the past decade. Yes please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was hoping she would do something like this.Think this could make things worse for Boris. Can't see it persuading any MP`s on the fence. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he's dumb enough to do it. There's a good possibility he loses his own seat. Raab would probably be gone too along with a few others. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gooseberry Crumble 5,328 Posted June 6, 2022 I genuinely thought they were going to wait until the bad by election results later this month and use that as evidence and cover for their decision. Interesting times lay ahead! Remember Theresa May won her no confidence vote giving her a years immunity but she still went before a year was up and when she won the no confidence vote Jacob Rees Migg said she should still go because a high percentage of colleagues had lost faith in her. He is now arguing the opposite in the case of Boris. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slackhurst Broadcasting 373 Posted June 6, 2022 If the party has confidence in the leader they don't hold a vote of no confidence. And if the leader wins, doubts and divisions don't go away. The odds have tipped against Boris lasting till the next election. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
