The Return of Boris Johnson: Why now? | LBC analysis
Рет қаралды 13,617
16 күн бұрынShelagh Fogarty speaks to ex-Boris Johnson advisor Tim Montgomerie, after the former PM Boris Johnson made a surprise appearance at a Tory campaign event.
During his speech, Boris Johnson called for voters to stop 'Starmergeddon'.
Boris Johnson's sudden appearance in support of Rishi Sunak has come as a surprise to many, with the two being unable to reconcile over differences in the past.
Lib Dem deputy leader Daisy Cooper described Mr Johnson's appearance as "a desperate new low" for Mr Sunak's campaign.
Tim Montgomerie tells Shelagh Fogarty that Boris Johnson 'is marmite', but 'there are a lot of voters who still like him.'
Despite having resigned from office after months of advising Boris Johnson as he saw 'problems in his Downing Street operations', Tim Montgomerie tells Shelagh Fogarty this was a strategic move from the Tories to 'gain attention' and to 'ask the Conservative vote if they want a Labour supermajority'.

Whenever I think British politics can't get any more crazy, I'm immediately convinced of the opposite. Now the only question remains whether the eligible voters in the UK want to change and improve their situation or whether they are after 14 years of Tory rule so dismayed that they don't vote at all. 😢

I think it is the other way around. Many voters dislike Johnson. For some that is insultingly mild. He is politically toxic, but could I suppose in selected areas encourage some Reform UK voters back to the Tories, and discourage others from leaving.

You have very little understanding of Reform voters. Reform are getting votes from people who are disgusted with Johnson and the Tory Party. If anything, he's just reminded them of past awful 5 years and added a few votes to Reform.

No. Let's stick with facts. Johnson is one of the most despised people in the country. Ask any family that he harmed during Covid. No politican is loved by the majority of the populace, but Starmer is widely recognised as a decent human being. The opinion polls show that your claims are not true - they are your opinion projected onto the rest of us.
