A common comment by members is: " why cannot something be done about Boris Johnson?¿?¿?."
No easy answer, and a list of reasons, mainly centred around prevention rather than cure and reaction.
1. Since 23rd of June 2016 the cheat has prospered and lied to the voters. In December 2019 14 m people believed his lies, many still do. Johnson controls the media and the news people listen to or read. Johnson is a no substance, blustering showman, but people retain on average less than 30% of content after 24 hours. They are left with an image of a man dressed up as a worker having his photo taken, at a builders yard, school or vaccination centre. He pretends to be man of the people. His acting works. EG Hartlepool on May 6th will probably go blue after being red since 1964. Incredible yes, but such is the state of this deeply divided nation. Having lots of candidates dilutes the vote too. But Hartlepool voted 70 / 30 for Brexit, so what hope is there in that part of England. And it is the English that is the problem and the older English who form the blue rinse brigade of Brexit Boris Boot lickers.
2. A weak and feeble political opposition does not help either. Although Starmer visited the Coronavirus memorial wall at Westminster recently, there was little coverage compared to the Boris daily bombardment of Tory Propaganda. AND you cannot have an opposition voting WITH the Government as they did on Brexit. It now means Labour cannot criticise a 100 days of Brexit which has seen jobs, exports and industries lost and riots in Belfast. So..................... rule out media, rule out political opposition .
3. 16m belong to the apathy brigade: "Can´t do anything, so why even think about doing something". Did not vote allowed 14m to give Britain a maniac in charge.
4. Then there are the well meaning protesters, the petitioners, protesting and petitioning about single subjects and NOT the big picture, the common denominator Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson. President Chump is / was Boris´s twin. He deliberately made so many lies and mistakes every day, so it was hard for journalists or politicians to chase the errors and catch up. So Chump was ALWAYS ahead. Boris does the same. So people protest about lockdowns, single subject, Brexit, single subject, Police Bills, single subject, violence against women, single subject. Most of the petition organisers , campaign the same, single subject. Johnson is able to ignore them one by one. The Court cases so far , single subject. If you were Johnson, you would be saying to yourself, this is a good game.
5. If you were an undecided voter are you going to put all these single issues together. NO. You have to be told the Big Picture. A member said recently she did not know the 2 top men at the BBC were appointed recently from the Boris Brigade. Other members do not know that Johnson´s public health strategy has been flawed for 13 months. Some do not know about the case for trying Johnson in court for the common law offence of Misconduct in Public Office. SO............ if members do not know this what hope the public. Members have access to 40 posts per day.
6. Unless the Tories get kicked out of their Town Halls in England and Wales in 3 weeks time, Johnson , on a vaccine bounce, will be further cock a hoop and even more invincible. If the Tories get a bloody nose, and their rank and file losing council seats, Tory Central Office will begin an inquest and start pointing fingers. Back benchers will get uneasy, because a 5% swing against them will see 75 of them lose their seats at a general election.
7. Conclusion: The incompetent Johnson is in the driving seat. Whereas he makes a mess of policies, he is adept at controlling and retaining power. " why cannot something be done about Boris Johnson?¿?¿?." Britain´s worse Prime Minister It is you, the people, that have to make the noise to Stop Boris, it will not happen on it´s own. Allan Sharpe
