Johnson could be last Prime Minister of UK

AT present Boris Johnson’s working majority, after losing the Brecon and Radnorshire by-election, is just one MP.

He became the fastest new Prime Minister ever to lose a by-election in British political history.

Ukip, meanwhile, was pushed into last place by the Official Monster Raving Loony Party.

Brexit has been blocked and thwarted as much by in-fighting between the differing factions of extreme Brexitism as it has by Remainers, if not more so.

A Brexit Party spokesman has actually stated: “While we have a government led by someone nobody has ever trusted in his entire career, why should we trust the Tories?

“Why should anyone in the country trust the Tories? ”

Nigel Farage refuses to consider any electoral pact with the Tories while controversial Brexit ‘mastermind’ Dominic Cummings, appointed by Boris Johnson, is involved because Farage says he holds “huge personal enmity towards true believers in Brexit”.

While this farce plays out, a leaked Whitehall document reveals the possibility of widespread consumer panic, possible food shortages, rising crime and economic chaos within the first fortnight of a no-deal Brexit, all understandably feeding into deep-seated concerns.

Already, about 50% of Britain is stockpiling food, medicine and clothes as the country reputedly heads for a no-deal exit.

Now, Boris Johnson proposes to spend £100m on propaganda in a probably vain attempt to defuse these fears.

This is despite the road hauliers’ organisations telling the Prime Minister that the contingency planning set up for last March’s no-deal crisis has been allowed to lapse.

This £100m of propaganda is on top of billions allocated to try and repair the self-inflicted no-deal Brexit damage.

Meanwhile, our economy is weakening, four million people live in poverty, Jaguar, Honda and Vauxhall are moving jobs from the UK and NHS patients are not getting advanced cancer treatment.

These self-centred fanatics are quite happy to see the UK break up.

There is even talk of Welsh independence and a referendum on a united Ireland.

The DUP want to cling to the UK, yet their support for extreme Brexit looks set to break it up.

Deep distrust of the Johnson Government is forcing the other UK communities to look to their own salvation.

Mr Johnson could well be the last ever British Prime Minister.
