Anyone else who thinks that Boris Johnson is a complete **** and needs to resign

So do you ladies use that word on a day to day basis?

Really?

Gonegirl - Sorry, I meant to your earlier comment "where do you people get these ideas"

also That T word was unnecessary

Actually it is simply in the eye of the beholder.

The OP is using the word as simply of a description of an unpleasant or indeed obnoxious person.

There are two meanings of the word.

1. As a woman’s genitalia

2. Stupid or obnoxious person.

It would not have occurred to me that the OP meant it as anything other as a stupid person.

Raise your sights.

Yes why not?What is this obsession with slang names for the genitalia being regarded with shock and terror. It's a relic of the Victorian age and it is unnecessary. It's just a word.

Exactly, GG. The T word is the C word.

I don't think that many people realise this

Urban Dictionary might help

Gonegirl - I agree with you

trisher would you accept the 'c' word?

I was the same Fennel. Until I said it infront of my husband when we were courting. He looked at me in horror.

I'd thought it was similar to twit

Well I didn't know what it meant until recently. Thought it was just a silly person.
Very sheltered upbringing.
Except I did know the word that Pepys uses in his diaries for the same thing.

It's a shocking word really. And I don't take offence readily

Just surprised it's allowed.

I'm not crying to any teacher. Just reporting a thread title containing a word that I believe to be beyond the pale.

No it isn't just a word. It's demeaning to women.

Oh come on it's just a word! Crying to teacher really isn't on.

Agree Minty! I've reported it.

I have just realised where the word tw-- is in this thread. It's in the title.

Reporting that. Diabolical!

Boris isn't an idiot. He is unfortunately a conniving, unprincipled liar who realised after appearing on HIGNFY that he could attract more support by playing to the gallery and behaving like an idiot whilst surreptitiously introducing as much right wing policy as he was able.As for this idea that he has somehow managed a deal.It's a worse deal than any of TMs, it breaches the Good Friday agreement and it won't get through.

As an aside, that T word is a complete no no here

I think GrannieMigs posted what most of us are thinking.

TerriBull
I was one of those who was well and truely castigated for using 'that' word. The reason being that where I live (south east) to pronounce the a as in cat is fine, but to change the a to an o is offensive.

Boris Johnson is NOT an idiot.

Look the word up in a dictionary and you might learn something.

And to answer your question, no he should not resign.

Don't most people groan when they hear the name Gove?

Agree with LullyDully who on earth is the alternative!!! And if he gets Brexit done I'll be well pleased. We need to move on from this, the last 3 years just show that politicians don't listen to the people unless it suits them.

re the question about how they become MP's I did read that Gove was pushed along into it by another Tory...was it Cameron?
Gove was then like his wife a journalist and is now one of our "fav" MP's.

I believe the Tory party go and recruit those they can mould in their own image.
Not sure if true, not sure about the other parties

Granniemigs, here here.

I agree wholeheartedly with you! If so many people have this view then why the f***ing hell is he our MP??? Also I must point out that I have fallen out with a "friend" over this Brexit nonsense and she won't even talk to me at all now. Oh well she can buggar off with Boris and live happily ever after! x

Dear paintingthetownred, I presume your pseudonym reflects the socialist (Marxist?) "political circles" you inhabit - so it comes as no surprise to find you attempting a bit of rabble-rousing against a Conservative Prime Minister who is doing his level best to deliver the result of the EU Referendum. However, reading your post raised a couple of questions in my mind. First, I am a bit bemused as to what your three university degrees have to do with the price of fish (as my mother used to say). Indeed, I wonder how anyone so keen to trumpet their extensive academic qualifications can write a post so peppered with errors and almost devoid of punctuation. And second, how does being the "mother of a fourteen year old" qualify you to comment on this forum? It's "Gransnet": the clue's in the name..
