It now looking likely that the Prime Minister will still be in post for at least the next few months but what changed? How did Starmer claw back some time?

May 5th is a chance for the Great British Public to give LYING ,INCOMPETANT , MEGA ARROGANT, PRIVILEGED Boris and his ass licking cabinet and all those Tory MP's ,who are behaving like brainwashed sheep backing Boris , the " BIGGEST KICKING OF THEIR LIVES IF NOT HISTORY "

Kier Starmer is unfit to lead.
It should go without saying, honesty and integrity matter in our politics. This week, the Labour Party failed to stand up for either.
Kier Starmer has lost the trust of the public over his lies about parties held in Downing Street during lockdown. Now it’s clear he has lost the confidence of his MPs.
The Labour Party can no longer continue to pursue relentless lies about our great Prime Minister. The public has woken up the relentless preaching of hate towards his fellow man.
Starmer’s authority is shot. He is unable to lead the opposition never mind the country.
In May, we must send him a message.
The Local Elections are just around the corner. This is your chance to show Kier Starmer that Britain has the greatest a Prime Minister since Churchill.
Let's make sure voters across the country know that Conservative’s are the only party on your side.

This policy processing migrants in Rwyanda all of a sudden, with doing nothing for years is a smokescreen to cover the fines Boris & Rishi got, and Boris is hoping this will get Brownie points for the May Local Elections
CORRUPT SERIAL LIAR BORIS IS GOING TO TAKE THE WHOLE TORY PARTY DOWN WITH HIM , BRITISH PEOPLE ,LETS GIVE BORIS & CABINET THE MASSIVE KICKING THEY DESERVE IN MAY ELECTIONS

Us UK workers are screwed. The government gives everything to immigrants here in the UK – 5million per day us tax payers pay just keeping immigrants in our 5star hotels! Nice huh thnks government! NOT!! while our genuine hard workers starve & struggle!. I think we should follow China, 1 kid policy. If you can't feed them don't breed them & If you have no job cos ur a benefit bum , you should do community service. No wonder the world laughs at the UK.
come here immigrants, we love u more than UK citizens!!! Bunch of fanny's this government

Boris snap election?! Knowing full well we have no one else to vote for. I am getting angry with the current political parties and feel they need to end and make way for local, independent people. Scrap all the Lords and keep it to 19 retirees from various fields.

There’s zero chance of a 2022 election. The Tory party will ditch Johnson late summer in favour of Sunak then they will go for spring 2023……….mark my words!

@MrPwmiles
December 25, 2023 at 3:12 pm
When wasn't the press speculating about a snap election? They tend not to go well if the public doesn't see the need and the government already has a majority: T.May 2017, Heath 1974, Baldwin 1923 (bonus points if you know what that was about).
@envysart797
December 25, 2023 at 3:12 pm
As we saw with Justin Trudeau in Canada and Teresa May; the public really do not like being bothered with repeated snap elections every 2 years. It comes across as annoying
@leonbell5141
December 25, 2023 at 3:12 pm
If they did they would win as they have no opposition…they may get even more votes after Labour new focus on closing roads and appealing to affluent voters…the working class will vote for Tories

he certainly will top the past blaming of the EU, instead of himself.

This channel must be more left leaning than I realized.. Labour would like to have as many elections as possible until they get a win then change the election act to have one every 1000 yrs.
