Correction – his slogans remain popular. Policies? He had none; he simply borrowed abundantly if incoherently from our hard left civil service – recently nettled because the Telegraph has found them imposing the doctrine that members of this or that minority should “never be contradicted”. And it is because Johnson was and remains a contemptible weakling; and because he was the last man on earth to take on and tame our hard left civil service that we have endured ruinous lockdowns, dodgy vaccines, net zero, HS2 and raging inflation, not to mention porous borders. We have de facto permanent hard left government across the western world, with elected leaders thrown out by the international bureaucracy on a regular basis, whether by hook of slanted law – Berlusconi – or crook of stuffed ballot boxes. The living emblem of western democracy today is Biden, a senile zombie shaken towards the camera like a species of shrunken head by the witchdoctors of “woke”. And at last, the western world is waking up to its imprisonment.

Did anyone else notice the sly smile on Johnson’s face when he said ‘hasta la vista’? — he knows that whoever is the next PM will inevitably come a cropper and he will be called back.

Some of the policies in the chart seem very narrow in their focus such as “New laws to protect renters..” and “plans to increase corporation tax…”. But “Plans to make the UK a science superpower” is broader. I suppose they would call that aspirational rather than a specific policy. To me “Levelling up” is the vaguest of them all. As Selwyn says, it’s a slogan rather than a policy. It doesn’t mean anything until specific policies are defined to achieve levelling up, whatever it means. Net Zero is the same. Anyone might agree that Net Zero is a “Good Thing” but they may change their minds when the specific policies need to achieve net zero are determined.

Peter Franklin wrote, “Both Sunak and Truss need to read the room. Brexit allied to levelling-up is what got the Tories elected in 2019 — and it is their only chance of victory in 2024. If they won’t champion this agenda, then [Boris Johnson might return]”
Another popular policy is the Rwanda policy, by which illegal aliens are deported to Rwanda. Boris Johnson understood the fate of the United States and wanted to use the Rwanda policy to prevent Great Britain (GB) from descending into the same fate.
By 2040, due to open borders, the United States will cease being a Western country, and Hispanic culture will dominate. In California, the majority of residents already reject Western culture, and Hispanic culture dominates.
Johnson with his good political acumen could have remained the leader of GB if it had a presidential system instead of a prime ministership. If GB had remained in the European Union (EU), its rules would have prevented a strong executive branch. Outside the EU, GB could strengthen that branch by replacing the prime minister with a president.
A president Johnson would not have resigned.
The Britons should consider adopting a presidential system. It would facilitate GB’s being a leader of the West as the United States exits Western civilization.
Writing statements like “get more about this issue” will deter most reasonable people from engaging in a discussion with you.
You might consider that a good thing – or you may not ..
