Nick Boles when the second round of indicative votes failed, but he just became independent instead of changing parties

Eyyy congrats mate!

Seriously mate, we are on the cusp of finally having this country run by bastards veer off the course that hellworld has set for it and you are inexplicably here wailing into the void rather than joining in. This thread has been so patient with you and gave you the recommendations that would help you feel better and you just constantly come back and post this poo poo.

Yeah honestly I know I say to ignore people a lot but at this point please ignore AoF. I'm all for being patient with people with MH issues etc. but at this point interacting is just feeding their problems and it causes a 9-page derail every time they post in the thread and it's always exactly the same poo poo. They're not British and have never lived here and whilst I know that's true for some other posters ITT at least they actually contribute meaningfully to the thread rather than just constantly catastrophising.

Worth noting also that Canning lasted so short a time because he died in office. Who's the shortest serving PM who lost an election - Bonar Law?

Remember on forums when people would do the thing about posting "in" to make it known they were waiting for the reaction to something silly someone said?

This is me, waiting for Jedit to inevitable post pointing out his take that actually the SNP want eternal Tory government and hard Brexit for Scottish nationalist reasons.

Midnight-: Aug 22, 2007; Pain or damage don't end the world, or despair, or fuckin' beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man - and give some back.

Isn't there an MP that is a suspended Tory that will always vote with them anyway?

So technically no majority, but in reality has one?
