from Quora on B Johnson Esq

Why are so many people "gaslighting" Boris Johnson?

Many people are raising concerns about Boris Johnson’s dreadful premiership.

Mr Johnson’s three year premiership was marked by negotiating the economic partition of the UK, an unlawful attempt to prorogue parliament, persisent government attempts to break the law, a police fine, a botched attempt to save the career of a disgraced MP, a failed attempt to rig the chairing of the intelligence committee, among the highest number of Covid deaths in Europe, numerous resignations from his Downing Street operations, the most number of ministerial resignation in a single day ever, the resignation of two ethics advisors and the first prime minister to overrule the Lords appointment committee.

Elected by the party membership for his campaign and vote winning skills, Mr Johnson chose to resign because of his collapsing government. Mr Johnson will never lead his Conservative party ever again.

To watch: the Conservative party’s post mortem on the reasons for electing and backing Mr Johnson as their leader.

Law breaking booze ups in Downing Street; undemocratic imposition in Brum

The centre of the universe is not Brierley Hill but the London HQ of our national government, that is the principal partying, brewery booze-up, law-breaking capital of London, viz 10 Downing Street.

When it comes to our regional government, 16 Summer Lane is the HQ of the national tram lobbying organisation and the regional Transport HQ to make the joint Combined Authority that acts strangely by imposing, without any debate and vote in a single council chamber, a billion-pound expenditure every year to 2040 for 150  miles, 8 tram lines and 380 tram stops for Metro expansion.

Well, the Combined Authority does have to combine trams with trains and combine trams with buses and cars to add to the traffic snarl-ups.
