Because whatever legal, procedural or moral transgression any of them are guilty of, Boris Johnson is also guilty of the same unacceptable conduct, multiple times over and to a far greater extent.can someone think of a reason as to why BJ hasn't sacked Jenrick, Patel, Williamson and now Hancock?
The current main contender seems to be spineless. But "what have they got on him?" has got to be a possibility.can someone think of a reason as to why BJ hasn't sacked Jenrick, Patel, Williamson and now Hancock?
Reminds me of May before that fateful election when everyone said she could garrot the queen on live TV and still beat corbyn. Happily the court of public opinion is, glacialy, shifting.Because whatever legal, procedural or moral transgression any of them are guilty of, Boris Johnson is also guilty of the same unacceptable conduct, multiple times over and to a far greater extent.
I think the sacking threshold is now so high, it would take a disclosure of Catholic Priest scale kiddy fiddling to get fired. Maybe not even then if they sniffed half a chance of getting away with it.
Stating the bvious, but if I or anyone I can think of did it we'd be out of a job (and professional registration) in a weekThe current main contender seems to be spineless. But "what have they got on him?" has got to be a possibility.
But I prefer the idea that he simply hasn't got anyone to put in their places. His coterie is spent and there aren't any new joiners.
Too stupid to realise that CCTV is recording seems to be a damned good reason for him to go.
But, as the aide's boss (in some way - after all he gave her the job), there are so many workplace relationship issues.

Does this also apply to those who got Covid-19, and survived due to getting almost unavailable "compassionate use" medicines in Walter Reed hospital in Washington DC? That is, does previous infection have a greater or lesser protective effect than Pfizer vaccine?Not good news from Israel
Half of adults infected in an outbreak of the Delta variant of Covid-19 in Israel were fully inoculated with the Pfizer vaccine
However it isn't all bad news as only two have died
How many of them are really Johnson-ites?He's not stuck for talent, here's 10 Tory MPs listed among the top 20 MPs in the Commons to watch:
Siobhan Baillie, Laura Trott, Dehenna Davison, Jonathan Gullis, Richard Holden, Saqib Bhatti, Miriam Cates, Danny Kruger, Alicia Kearns, Lee Anderson.
I suspect the trouble is that Boris is not comfortable in the company of more capable people.

I think he exploits more capable people as sidekicks to his buffoon character. To that extent, I think he does like them.I suspect the trouble is that Boris is not comfortable in the company of more capable people.

Only if they are "yes men" like the present bunch, and I dont see all of them as particularly capable. Matt Hancock, Chris Grayling and Priti Patel for example.I think he exploits more capable people as sidekicks to his buffoon character. To that extent, I think he does like them.
That was actually Danidl quoting me!good point.
Danidl makes a point of not commenting on UK politicians so probably wouldn't like the attribution of the original.I suspect the trouble is that Boris is not comfortable in the company of more capable people.
