BoJo's Mojo is a no show

When Boris Johnson mouthed off against Vladimir Putin at the G7, it looked and sounded like he envisioned himself playing big boy games of riding a horse shirtless and looking macho but upon the latest revelations and resignations in his cabinet, it appears he has been caught with his pants down.

As of writing, 50 aides and ministers of Boris Johnson’s government has tendered their resignations.

*Correction: 53

Updating our blog today. 53 resignations and one sacking so far. (Cue this tweet bring out of date in 3...2...1) Live Boris Johnson updates as Government in turmoil amid further resignations

nottinghampost.comUpdates as reports suggest Boris Johnson will resignAnother difficult day ahead for the PM

All this has been brewing since Partygate (the infamous get together during lockdown), the numerous scandals in his administration like the Downing Street flat renovation and the claim that Boris Johnson tried to hire his current wife (Carrie Johnson) as his chief of staff – with a £100,000-a-year salary – while he was foreign secretary and married to somebody else.

But the one that did him in was the alleged sexual misconduct by a cabinet member named Chris Pincher. Mr. Pincher is accused of sexually touching male aides on several occasions in the past, and PM Johnson was warned about the issue at least five times since July 2019, yet he did nothing.

Against a backdrop of scandal after scandal, everyone in British politics is using the Pincher scandal as an opportunity to go after Johnson’s head.

To me, it all seems like the MSM is enthralled with the latest episode of Keeping up with the Johnsons instead of proper policy news but when did they ever do that.

Even Larry the Cat has distanced himself from the PM.

Larry the Cat @Number10cat

“I can no longer, in good conscience, live with this Prime Minister. Either he goes, or I do”

It’s all one giant distraction circus!

Larry the Cat @Number10cat

Time to clarify a few things: 1. I’m not “Boris Johnson’s cat” 2. Like all Prime Ministers, he’s only a temporary resident of Downing Street 3. I live here permanently. When he finally goes, I stay 4. Yes, it’s all very embarrassing but it will be over soon

Instead of getting distracted, what is the obvious through the smoke and mirrors?

I may be wrong but it really seems to me like a political hit job. I would like to hear Boris’ side of the story without the newspapers’ spin. He needs to write it on his website or have an interview from his perspective. Who knows when we will hear the real story?

This sort of reminds me of Richard Nixon’s scandal. Something happened that did not involve him. He was notified but clumsily handled it and his opponents maximized the damage until he was driven out of office.

I am no fan of Boris, but, I am sick of these MSM machinations designed to shape my thoughts and political stance. The next person to be PM will probably pursue the same insane and radical great reset policies and likely to be worse than BoJo.

Yet it is huge in terms of the crisis of leadership we have documented here at Khaki & Leathers.

Is there even a real crisis? or is inaction the real crisis?

BoJo failed to avoid the landmines and doesn’t seem capable of getting his MOJO back. Of course, the media are contributing to his demise. He is too weak to win this one. Jabs to the right, left and backstabs.

Not sure who he ticked-off, but what we can speculate at the moment is that the puppet master is tired of BoJo’s antics. Or maybe he wasn’t moving fast enough?

While the distracting is on with the BoJo shitshow:

• We should ask why the UK is sending weapons and training to a country that only one year ago was rife with NeoNazi’s (who are apparently angels now) and are at war with Russia.

• We should ask why Foreign Secretary Liz Truss is approving mercenaries to go to Ukraine and on the other hand, stealing Russian assets.

David Kurten @davidkurten

Liz Truss of the Johnson regime supported British mercenaries going to fight in the Ukraine. Now two of them have been captured and sentenced to death.

telegraph.co.ukCaptured British fighters Aiden Aslin and Shaun Pinner sentenced to deathThe two men, who were captured by separatists in Mariupol in April, were accused of fighting as mercenaries for Ukraine

• We should ask why UK drones and pilots are controlling attacks against the Russians.

The Kyiv Independent @KyivIndependent

⚡️Reuters: UK to provide another $1.2 billion of military support to Ukraine. The U.K. pledged to provide 🇺🇦 with 1 billion pounds of military support to boost the country's defense capabilities, including air defense systems, drones, and new electronic warfare equipment.

• We should ask why the UK is still part of a defunct international body like NATO while claiming to be out of the EU but working in tandem with EU on defense and national security.

• We should ask why huge sums of money is being sent to Ukraine while the NHS is in rot, homelessness in UK is on the rise, inflation is through the roof and a looming cost of living crisis.

But party gate? or flimsy scandals or sexual allegations?

Every government has done more to ruin our lives and folks are harping on about something many politicians are guilt of?

Do me a favor!

It is obvious that the administrative state/technocratic elite is aware that the great reset policies are unpopular and are using this as a pretext to inflict enormous damage on the British people vis a vis the Commonwealth.

They need a scapegoat. Fortunately for them, they have an eminently qualified and deserving one on hand.

Unfortunately for BoJo, his Mojo cannot save him this time.
