I’m surely not the only one shouting at the telly every time some mealy mouthed
presenter informs me that 160,000 oddities are soon to select the UK’s next Prime
Minister simply because they are members of a party that could only muster less
than 10% of the votes at the UK wide Euro election last month?

With 46 million registered voters across the UK, it is simply outrageous that less than 1%
of the electorate gets to choose a Prime Minister. In fact, it is not only outrageous it is
unprecedented. Never before has a government without a working majority changed the
Prime Minister between general elections.

From the Tawdry Ten we were left with the Sleekit Seven and then the False Four became
the Deceitful Duo. If Boris Johnson or Jeremy Hunt is the answer then you are asking the
wrong bloody question. They are a couple of public schoolboys without a clue what the
real world is like. They have been pampered and cossetted all their lives and couldn’t give
a damn about the disastrous austerity cuts and welfare changes which have left 14 million
in poverty and driven hundreds of thousands of others to food banks and early graves on
the back of bene t sanctions and Universal Credit insecurity.

Hunt displayed the sincerity of King Herod o ering to supervise the baby boys in a
hospital maternity unit when he admitted during the televised leadership debate a couple
of days ago that the cuts to social care “did go too far”. Damn right they went too far but
they were cuts discussed and agreed by the cabinet of millionaires which he has sat in
since 2010. The cuts he now suggests went ‘too far’ were imposed by him. You don’t get to
punch someone in the face and then claim they ran into your hand. Hunt is a cold,
callous, Conservative millionaire with a disregard for public services which millions of
ordinary folk rely on.

He also has a healthy disregard for the law. He ignored his own government’s anti-money
laundering legislation when he set up a company to purchase 7 luxury ats and then
‘forgot’ to mention them in his register of Member’s interests within the required 28 days.
Was he sanctioned for failing to declare wealth and interests as the rules dictate? Aye
right… He was allowed to out the law and the rules as millionaire politicians like him are
above proper scrutiny and avoid accountability for their actions.

Hunt would be a horrible PM. Anyone who was able to compel Junior Doctors to strike
against dangerous contracts making them work so many hours that they were unable to
function safely is un t to occupy number 10. But there is no real worry because he won’t
win. The fact is Bungling Boris will win the votes among the Tory party members and be
given the keys to power when he is apparently un t to have keys to his partner’s at. What
a frightening prospect. This is a guy you wouldn’t trust to run a bath and he will soon be
appointed by a bunch of sel sh Tories to run the country. It is pathetic.

SNP Westminster leader Iain Blackford called out Boris as the racist he is during Prime
Minister’s Questions in Parliament the other day and the reason the Speaker of the House
could not force him to apologise or remove him from the Chamber is Mr Blackford merely
highlighted what Johnson himself has said and condemned him with his own words:

"The member has called Muslim women letterboxes, he described African people

as having watermelon smiles and another disgusting slur that I would never dignify by
repeating

"If that's not racist, Mr Speaker, I don't know what is.

"Does the prime minister honestly believe that this man is t for the o ce of the
prime minister?"
The truth is Johnson is not t to be prime minister as he has the moral bre of a
rattlesnake and as much backbone. He is not only a racist but a serial liar.

On July 22nd this man is going to be chau eur driven to 10 Downing Street and installed
as Prime Minister without facing a public vote. It is simply not acceptable. He must be told
to keep his bags shut and his coat on because we demand a General Election to decide
who the next Prime Minister is not a farcical talent show for the talentless conducted by a
small sect called the Conservative Party.

Brutus Boris does not like being confronted with his own words and taking responsibility
for his own actions but he must be made to face up to the words he wrote about Gordon
Brown being made Prime Minister without a public election in 2007. Brown took over
from Blair and should have called an immediate General Election but at least New Labour
were a majority Government at that time. The Tories now are a minority without authority
or credibility. Johnson in 2007 said:

“It’s the arrogance. It’s the contempt. That’s what gets me. It’s Gordon Brown’s
apparent belief that he can just trample on the democratic will of the British people.
It’s at moments like this that I think the political world has gone mad, and I am
alone in detecting the gigantic fraud.”

They voted for Tony, and yet they now get Gordon, and a transition about as
democratically proper as the transition from Claudius to Nero. It is a scandal. Why are we
all conniving in this stitch-up? This is nothing less than a palace coup… with North Korean
servility, the Labour Party has handed power over to the brooding Scottish power-maniac”

Boris Johnson said it was a ‘gigantic fraud’, ‘palace coup’ and ‘North Korean servility’ to
allow an MP to become Prime Minister without a public vote in 2007. He was right for
once then but will he have the courage of his convictions in July and call a General
Election or will he expose himself as the consistent liar, hypocrite and coward we all know
him to be? For once in your life Boris, do the right thing. Call an immediate General
Election.
