There’s literally no chance he’s going, right? (Putting aside the fact anybody replacing him will be equally evil and poo poo.)

Jedit posted:He doesn't have any say in it. Once he's no longer party leader, the Tories send their new chosen leader to request Her Majesty's permission to serve and he/she becomes PM. If Boris then refuses to leave Downing Street, there's an armed officer on duty inside at all times who will escort the intruder from the premises. LOL at believing this

Or he'll lose, the new leader will ask for permission to form a government, and she'll be in a vegetative state.

And they care about nothing more than self-preservation: if he wins then he is safe for 12 months, which takes him past the 2023 local elections and only 1 year before a presumed general election. So while I'd be surprised if he loses it wouldn't be a total surprise. But yeah, it's Britain, good things don't happen

The 12 month rule is an internal tory policy and can be changed by tory membership. Didn't Brady threaten to do that to May to persuade her to stand down even though she won the VONC?

[incoherent frothing] cons: -there's literally no one else -keith has managed to tie his own shoelaces together and is probably even odds to be stepping down himself -most of his cabinet are ultra loyal as nobody else would have them still think he'll win but not by enough to staunch the wound

He'll scrape through. Declare it an outstanding victory that ends all doubt about him as PM and its a fresh start for the country and all that shite and hang on for as long as possible. And the rebel mps will be back to voting with the whip instantly.

But things would have to get really miserable over the next few months go get to that point. Like losing both by-elections this month, and then a couple more in the next 6 months.

Julia Serano has a PhD in biochemistry and molecular biophysics and is therefore more biological than 99% of women, and she's written plenty to disagree with that statement. Checkmate kieth.

what always gets me is that everybody getting this question now has had time to prepare for this poo poo now, they know the penis question is coming and they know it will get attention. this is what they have prepared as a response. this is what they think is a good answer.

The good answer is "gently caress off", but the people who care about an answer will take that as the wrong answer. Got to pander to the bigots, though - anything else means you're not electable.

Like you don't (didn't at least) see that stuff as much in countries where there's lots of things that are natural like cholera and cheetahs, there's more a focus on safe and healthy, so it's like the Pastoral poetry of someone who knows they will never be required to herd sheep in the rain. And similarly it's bollocks because there's no way that loaf of bread is 100% natural. Every strain of wheat has at least double the genome size of any grass found in nature, baking and the millstone were sea change advances in humanity, and it's sliced in a loving plastic bag with a bread tag. It's like taking the whole of the anthropocene and claiming you found it hanging off a tree. It's what Nietzsche would call a pitiful self denial of one's own mastery in the form of a loaf. It's possibly completely unrelated but it did make me think about all this 'biological women' rhetoric.
