I never got to say goodbye to my Dad because of these corrupt individuals including Boris. For that I’ll never forgive or forget 🤬
-
The utter absence of any shame is laughable
-
Boris: the oaf in chief. He's shafted everyone. Our memories of him are fresh and we all hold him in contempt.
-
Think of people like me, who ve never voted Tory in my life and yet ive been forcec to live with their cruelty all my life.
-
One of the reasons we are in this mess, and they wheel him out like some kind of saviour! It beggars belief.
-
The party of family values criticising a man who wants to spend time with his family for 3 hours a week. How utterly desperate and pathetic
-
Chanting 'Boris, Boris' like it's some weird cult. Just completely embarrassing.
-
They are scraping the bottom of the sewer.
-
The fact there were people laughing and applauding says something very sad about the state of political awareness in the UK.
-
He will only make things worse as he will remind everyone of partygate
-
Great to bring in Johnson, it shows those still falling for Sunak's "I've only been PM for 18 months " bs, that our problems have been going on for over 14 years under the train wreck that is this government.
-
The arrogance, the sheer contempt these appalling politicians have is off the scale
-
"The love child of Les Patterson and Father Jack", brilliant. I just thought he's balding rapidly.
-
Boris was the beginning of the end for the Conservative Party.
-
"Plummy voiced Worzel Gummidge" priceless
-
This is about the future of our country, Vote!!!!!!
-
His appearance proves that they believe we are thick. They think that by bringing a man who left Downing Street in disgrace to the campaign will win voters. It won't. People are fed up of him and all who enabled him.
-
I thought Boris looked like Marleys ghost, then I heard "Les Patterson and Father Jacks love child" 😂
-
There in a bad way having him a proven liar to help them.
-
Totally agree with James. GET OUT THERE AND VOTE! GET RID OF THE TORIES POWER!
