In a secret ballot in the UK Parliament on Monday evening, 211 Tory MPs voted for Johnson compared with 148 against. The result of the confidence motion was announced live on television by party grandee Graham Brady. A total of 359 Conservatives had been eligible to vote.


Is that “narrowly”? He got 59% of the vote.

I asked Mrs Sparky recently…who the heck does his hair?….she said nobody.

I’m cutting my own hair since coronavirus, seems fine I don’t look at it from behind, grows back a bit weird though.

Of course off-topic threads can be stopped. That's one of the reasons there are moderators in this forum, or so I would have thought. It's certainly not a fait accompli.

Boris has funny hair on purpose. It's in the play book. Funny mustaches are also popular.

Can someone please remind me which riding Boris Johnson represented in Canada's federal election last year?

Yes there is. Play nice. I agree with you though.....let’s see where this goes before we start a new thread. It might be just about over.

Is there no thread for global politics - miscellaneous? If not, there should be.
