THIS is why Rishi Sunak will NOT be Prime Minister of the UK



Notice that 'Jerry' is fixated on England. He says it repeatedly, as though it comprised the entirety of the United Kingdom.

Having spent two years as an exchange student in Birmingham and London, such is not surprising in the least, as far too many people have a deep-down sense of English supremacy. Not generally British, as the Scots and the Irish are barely human in these people's minds. Boris Johnson is their perfect representation!

who live in the UK but I was able to really see the racism among some of those friends when talking about Brexit. I had to stop communicating with one due to his racist jokes and memes.

He campaigned for this shitshow back in 2016.

Liz Truss on the other hand campaigned for Remain in 2016 but after that had a damascene conversion to the Brexshitter path. And when she stood for leader she was telling Brexiteers exactly what they wanted to hear. Unfortunately, her fondness for fantasy politics backfired very quickly.

Johnson pulled out (seems that he didn't have as many MP's backing him as was being claimed) followed by Morduant.

If things continue as they have, practically everyone in the UK will be PM sooner or later.
