Wonder how heated the conversation at No. 10 Downing Street has been in the last 20 hours or so. "That mother-fucking Boris! He gave me his word he'd help with the Remain campaign, then he stabbed me in the back and became the face of Brexit. I resigned as it was obvious he'd beat me in a contest for leader. Now he's been stabbed in the back and decided not to run. Fuck me! I didn't need to resign after all and could have this as my home for the next few years! ******"@@@@^^^!!"
I'm guessing it was more a case of "Well, I tried my best, I guided, I lead, I advised the Country as best I could and they voted against me and my advice. Well you know what, they can go and FUCK themselves now, get those bags packed love, we're out of here and they can clear up their own bloody mess, I'm DONE with the lot of them!"
Fountain and nNIrish: The roots of this go back over 30 years. Cameron and Johnson were rivals at school and their rivalry has now brought both their political careers crashing down. However as I have said before, Cameron has come out of all this rather well in terms of his standing but Boris is seen as something of a traitor and is probably regretting his recent decision to renounce his American citizenship.
Boris Johnson was never going to be PM because he simply lacks the essential ingredients to do the job.
That odious little neo-con Gove (or more likely his even more unpleasant wife) has just stabbed Johnson in the back...."as ye sow, so shall ye reap."
Of course, unlike the rest of us , we lower-class mortals who had to work for a living and didn't have rich daddies to look after us in our need, these Tories merely move on to even more lucrative jobs when their political careers end.

What a stupidy to call Tories party for the rich. Like conservative political views are correlated to income.
There are rich left wingers and rich right wingers, there are poor left wingers and poor right wingers.
Conservatives aren't against poor; they also aren't agains rich. (Left wingers however tend to hate rich people). They favour the free market so everyone profits. Better to be 'poor' in a Western free market nation, than in a socialist economy (old Labour) where everyone is poor. Socialism failed everywhere.
Besides some common sense conservative social values aren't that bad. A Brexit can turn out to be a very good idea. Non-EU countries in Europe fair pretty well without the EU. Why wouldn't it turn out for Britains best to be outside it?
AsDaRa. People like to pigeonhole political parties so The Conservatives only appeal to the rich and Labour to the poor. This completely ignores the fact that before Cameron the last six Conservative Party leaders all came through the state education system and from average backgrounds. Howard, Duncan Smith, Hague, Major, Thatcher, Heath.
It is a fact that the vast majority of Tory front-benchers come from privileged backgrounds. I didn't comment on those who vote for them.
Interesting. I imagine a somehwat different conversation: "hah! I Screwed thst mother fucker Boris, didn't I! He thought I'd pull the trigger in Brexit as soon as it passed. What a twat! As if I'd actually keep a promise! Liberals and Labour think I'm an empty suit, well I may not be the brightest star in the firmament, but I know a poisoned apple when I see one. Here you go, BJ, Leave and the British economy is fucked and the UK is no more; remain and your supporters will eat you alive; quit and your career is over. Besides, I was getting bored with the job; it's rather beneath me, don't you think?"

Faranglaws' post reminds me of the old saying.
"It is better to remain silent and be thought of as a fool rather than to say something and remove all doubt."
