Boris Johnson simply not up to the job

I THINK there is going to be a gradual but definite change of scene on the telly.

The chap with the funny hair do is getting fed up with politics and government. What should be happening is not happening.

When people are no longer waving and laughing at your happy smile and witty one-liners... You are making too many mistakes and what’s the number?... 10 U-turns in 10 months trying and not getting the right answers that still don’t come right.

Senior officers up in the front line of the Covid and economic battle are calling it quits and leaving your army... That hard headed bunch, the 1922 committee of 100 are telling you that being Prime Minister is not like being Bruce Forsyth – ‘I’m in charge’ – of Sunday Night at the London Palladium.

You just don’t know what to say when it comes to real problems and others are picking up the bits of paper that have any relevance.

They will wheel you out to make the big statements and wheel you off the stage when it’s finished.

Let’s face it Mr Johnson, you really are not up to the job of team building, problem analysis and reasoned decision making.

There’s more. Your ambition to become some sort of a 21st century Lord Protector issuing orders to a parroting Parliament and deciding everything and just not acknowledging your all too many mistakes... Let’s face it, you might have been an asset when Mrs May was faltering but that’s all past history.

Now you don’t even know that you are fault...ering.

I think the big message is beginning to be understood even by you.

That Brexit, the falling-failing economy and Covid-19 are all indelibly linked together and you cannot put all three on the problem table and get all three solved in one go with one plan.

Three huge problems... much bigger, much more complex, much bigger penalties for failure than we faced in 1940.

If you had an ounce of vision in your self-opinionated head, you would acknowledge that of these three problems there is one you can do something about NOW that would substantially improve the chances of regaining control over the other two.

At the same time, it is time Britain operated against this crisis in the same manner that Britain operated against the 1940 crisis, with a united Parliament and government of all parties.

It is time Mr Johnson admitted that he is in real danger of loosing control of all three problems.

Like a juggler with too many balls to keep in the air who drops them all.

Put Britain first.

Put your party politics firmly in a cupboard and lock it.

Put Britain and British people, their lives and livelihood first.
