Which has already been shown to you doesn't favour Boris, the most incompetent prime minister we've ever had. Size of majorities can be influenced by many things. Strength of opposition, policies, other party members, opposition leaders, world events, economy etc etc It absolutely is not a measure of a prime minister's popularity. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 The issue is, some have taken what is clearly an opinion and attempted to masquerade it as a fact. Twix is my favourite chocolate bar, is an opinion and people can tell you it's not their favourite but regardless of what facts and figures they bring to the party, it wont prove you wrong as it's your opinion. "Twix is the most popular chocolate bar in the UK" is an opinion, and proveably false and when proven false, the logical thing to do is to accept the facts and acknowledge you are wrong. Living memory is how long? Why mention 1987? Why only Tory majorities? Why based only on majorities at all? I've seen complaints about people not engaging in other threads. Engage here. Stand up for your original point, prove it's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Davkaus Posted August 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) The sheer nerve of this useless word removed of a PM to talk about parent's "moral duty".

darrenm Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 The current face of Britain First, Ashlea Simon starred in a video going around knocking on the doors of rooms of asylum seekers which looks like it could be from nazi Germany. That Tory MP and hiding in plain sight fascist, Lucy Allan follows her on Twitter is very unsurprising. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheltenham_villa Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Very hard to measure the popularity of a PM as it will vastly change through the course of their leadership.

It seems getting up in the correct bed is somewhat of a challenge for this PM Seriously though, he's faced a very difficult set of challenges which he's mostly either dithered on and acted too late, had to U-Turn or he's just disappeared and run away from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Boris had the most difficult set of challenges for any modern day PM? No, not really. And it’s kind of not really the point exactly which PMs challenges were hardest. What he has done is utterly fail to meet them. He’s made circumstances worse in every instance. What he’s doing is compounding the challenges he faces and making people’s lives and futures worse, though a small number of favoured cling-ons, donors, vultures and parasites have benefited from the clusterpork he’s made of things.
