Tories Consider Boris Johnson’s Return Amidst Growing Crisis
In recent discussions among senior Tories, a nostalgic sentiment has emerged, contemplating the return of Boris Johnson to save the party from potential disaster.
The Nostalgic Appeal:
Drawing parallels with the Roman statesman Cincinnatus, who returned to leadership in a time of crisis, Tory MPs see Johnson as a potential savior for their party.
Challenges from the Covid Inquiry:
A significant obstacle to Johnson’s return has been the looming Covid inquiry and the fear of potential revelations.
Reform UK’s Threat:
The growing support for Nigel Farage and the Reform UK party poses a significant threat to the Tories.
As Farage’s influence rises, Tory MPs fear a decline in their party’s popularity.
Options for Johnson’s Return:
Despite the challenges, Johnson’s allies are exploring various options for his return.
The Johnson/Farage Dream Ticket:
Acknowledging the potential challenges in defeating Keir Starmer, some Tories are considering a drastic move – a dream ticket featuring both Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage.
The aim is to re-energize the party base, reshape the political debate, and present a formidable challenge to Starmer.
Troubles for Rishi Sunak:
As the Tories grapple with these considerations, Rishi Sunak’s leadership is under scrutiny.
There is a consideration of the challenges faced by Sunak, including the controversial Rwanda Bill and skepticism among rebels within the party.
Despite Sunak’s efforts to present the bill as a solution, doubts persist among MPs about its effectiveness.
Conclusion:
Whether it’s Johnson’s potential return, collaboration with Farage, or the fate of Sunak’s leadership, the party appears to be at a crossroads, with critical decisions looming on the horizon.
