Where Is The Tousle Haired Scamp?

[douglas9401]

Boris Johnson seems to have dropped off the grid since his "achievement" the other day.
Even his nitwitter account has been silent since the 23rd (as far as I can see).
Could it be dawning on him what he's actually done?

[Tilly2]

On Friday, I said that he was probably thinking, 'Oh my God, what do we do now?'

Perhaps he's had a weekend having a think about it.

[Ken4155]

He's in his secret bunker plotting his strategy re the top job:-)

[CrapAtCryptics]

I expect hes planning and researching the best way to go forward. He dealt very well with the morons shouting abuse outside his home.

[ubasses]

Yesterday he was at a charity cricket match. No doubt from today he will start canvassing MPs to see if he has enough backing to stand for PM and then his campaign will start.

I think he is sneaking into Number Ten by the back door, to measure up for new curtains dougie !

But at least someone has found Gideon, in whatever hole he has been hiding in, and dragged him kicking and screaming to a microphone

[naomi24]

Perhaps he's been at home for the weekend.

[Islay]

He was playing cricket with his family this weekend - apparently it is something the Johnson's do to mend bridges!

I think Osborne has effectively passed the buck to his successor, he and Cameron both know that trying to deliver a workable solution that fits in with the expectations of the majority could be a poison chalice and is not something they could handle. I hope this is not the case and Boris or whoever and his/her chancellor can find a way through that will make them go down in history as brilliant politicians

[dannyk13]

By delaying his exit until October Cameron has left everything in limbo. Why he can't go now and leave his successor to get on with sorting things out is beyond comprehension.

[mikey4444]

Danny...agree 100%.

[fiction-factory]

Which successor though , danny.? There has to be a process for finding one and that is underway. There is also no rush to invoke article 50- even if Boris becomes PM tomorrow he has said there should be no rush to invoke Article 50.

[Ken4155]

Islay, yes his dad mentioned this cricket match on the Last Leg on Friday evening. The Johnson team made up of dad, 4 sons, a daughter, in-laws, etc. Even had Kevin Pietersen represent them one year.

[mikey4444]

Ken...smacks to me of fiddling while Rome burns.

[dannyk13]

FF Even if they found a succcessor tomorrow he /she could not do anything until Cameron goes,We can't have two PM's.

[fiction-factory]

It gives some continuity though danny and gives time for the party to have well thought out selection process. The candidates themselves know they need to draw up a plan for what they will do if they get the job. I agree though that the sooner it can be sorted the better- maybe 2 months should be sufficient

[naomi24]

Mr Cameron has said he is going in a few months time and someone will replace him then. In allowing the dust to settle after the referendum, he is doing the right thing.

[wolf63]

Osbourne is not a man of honour. He had a cat, then got a dog - they didn't get on. He got rid of the cat - Freya. First in last out !

Now poor Larry will be dismissed from his post at the chief mouser - unless Boris adopts him.
