Breaking: Boris Johnson has won the race for Tory

Leadership. He will be Prime Minister from tomorrow. We are screwed. Trump lite in number 10. 159320 eligible to vote.Turn out 87.4 %. Jeremy Hunt 46656, Boris Johnson 92153. He slammed it.

This is the start of the end for the United Kingdom. No deal Brexit will be the ruin of us.

Boris Johnson may be unfit to hold office at any level, but the Conservative Party is in a very bad place from top to bottom and he told them what they wanted to hear.

Reality with do for Johnson, just as it caught up with his predecessor, who made a catastrophic error in feeding the Brexshitters fantasies.
