For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Re: Tory leadership campaign
Boris is going to win, it's very obvious. None of these other chumps stands a chance.

So long as they can control him for 4 weeks and stop him making any of his trademark gaffes.

Re: Tory leadership campaign
Even then, it'll have to be a doozy. He'd have to fuck up something epic to blow it, regular gaffes ain't getting it done, he'd have to put Joe Biden to shame, and then some.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 5:03 amSo long as they can control him for 4 weeks and stop him making any of his trademark gaffes.
If BoJo somehow chokes, it's going to something to behold.

https://www.theweek.co.uk/101738/boris- ... est-gaffesIn May 2016, Johnson was named winner of a write-in competition held by The Spectator, which challenged readers to compose “offensive” poems about hard-line Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Johnson, who had previously served as editor of the magazine, claimed victory - and £1,000 in prize money - with the following limerick:
“There was a young fellow from Ankara
Who was a terrific wankerer
Till he sowed his wild oats
With the help of a goat
But he didn’t even stop to thankera.”

Re: Tory leadership campaign
Yeah, that's nothing burger, shit like that is nowhere near enough. Gonna take a helluva a lot more than something like that for him to choke the Tory leadership away.

Never underestimate Boris's ability to shoot himself in the foot.

Re: Tory leadership campaign
He'd have to blow it clean off to lose though, even then he might hobble over the finish line. The competition is non-existent, someone has to beat him, and I am not seeing anyone who could even beat a one foot Boris.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 7:43 amNever underestimate Boris's ability to shoot himself in the foot.
