Boris - NOT amateur radio

At the moment, the UK Conservative party members are voting to elect their new leader. It is likely to be Boris Johnson, who will also become the new (unelected) UK Prime Minister. He sounds a bit like another Donald Trump.  I fail to understand why so many want him as their leader.

Personally, I am not impressed by either candidate. Most Conservative voters are in the older age bracket. Boris is, allegedly, a teller of untruths, although this is based on the media, so I may be wrong.  Both are public school boys, now grown up. I believe Boris went to Eton and Jeremy Hunt to Charterhouse.

My view is that whoever is elected will try, and fail, to get the EU to move in an attempt to get approval in Parliament for the EU withdrawal bill A vote of no confidence is possible, followed by a General Election.

God help us. 😢

Roger, I was researching Moxon antennas and stumbled upon your web site and went down the rabbit trail. I have appreciated reading your various musings. They bring to mind long and enjoyable conversations I used to have with a dear friend, (G0PWE) from in Ashington.

There's not much to choose between any of the current crop of MP's.

Hunt would be a repeat of May and the present situation would just drag along until other factors forced the situation, then you would end up with Corbyn in power and the transformation of the UK to a Marxist state. Remain in the EU and you end up in a Federalist super state. Not a great choice either way.

With Boris there is a 50/50 chance of him either being brilliant or a complete disaster.

All the rest are likely to be a 100% disaster

Of course the hobby bound under BR68 for years never to discuss any of the three sins over the air, namely religion politics or the making of a few bob to purchase more goodies etc, but I'd be glad if the whole lot disappeared labour or conservative as theres so many negatives with either to preclude a happy future for us all. Without these hereditory halfwits we may just stand a chance. Look what 'breeding' did in the war to end all wars.. I ask you
