  1. FPDA alert..✌️😊✌️🇦🇺🇸🇬🇲🇾🇳🇿🇬🇧

  2. All the fuss over a party? I guess no one else broke any rules during covid.

  3. This has Thatcher and John Major written all over it, you can’t tell me all these senior ministers didn’t know what was going on.
    They will get their karma, of course they will.
    Thank you Boris for everything you have done for this country and us your people.

  4. When he said he wanted to get rid of Putin, now he is the one being kicked out of his own house😂.
    I think his biggest scandal is his hair🤣.

  5. The only surprise is WHY it took this long…

  6. I would rather be interested in what the dark forces threatened him with:
    Health, wealth, law enforcement, including all his friends and relatives ?!?
    Well, if I remember correctly, then the post of Minister of Health would have been vacated for him recently…

  7. Наконец-то у Бориса есть время поправить прическу😂😂

  8. AFTER BREXIT PAID EU BILLION POUND STERLING NOW HAD TO PAID TAX MONEY TO NATO FOR WAR IN UKRAINE ..AND RUSSIA .
    WHAT A LOUSY LIFE TO BE PRIME MINISTER IN BATTLE OF EU AND NATO .
    DONT WORRY USA SPEND BILLION DOLLARS TAX PAYER MONEY IS NOTHING BECAUSE US IS WORLD POLICE . BILLIONS FINISHED IN AFGHANISTAN MUDDLED WITH MILLION REFUGEES FROM THERE GOOD WORK! 👍👍👍👍

  9. Playboy, BREXIT=MAGA, need hair cut & comb.

  10. Couldn't anyone or any Force make the one yelling, protesting or growling in the background during Boris' speech shut up!?? Sounds as if he/she has a megaphone! Why wouldn't he respect Boris and ShutTFUp!?

  11. Well, looks like Rupert Murdoch’s media machine has destroyed UK politics also!

  12. Another wretched Conservative bites the dust! Cue the song!

  13. Well done UK, you showed to the world the true meaning of the democracy, the intelligence and that nobody is above the rules and the ppl. Not like the 3rd wrld countries ( which my country is one of them), where the Supreme dum criminal leaders stay on the top until they die, and all that by fire, iron and blood.
    Also I congratulat Johnson for his courage and fight.

  14. Trump take a hint from Boris. No when to leave.

  15. Foolish. He survived a vote of no confidence. What does he gain by stepping down? Nothing.

  16. Notice how he didn't say he was resigning. He said he would step down when another leader was selected. That won't be for a while yet so he'll be ousted before that.
    Boris is very like Donald Trump, doesn't give a crap about his party, doesn't give a crap about his country, Boris only cares about Boris

  17. steps down???? he's been kicked out!

  18. Darwinian? I guess hair doesn't follow that rule.

  19. So Long Brexit! THAT WAS A BAD IDEA FROM THE START! LOL

  20. Britain's mini-Trump finally out. Don't worry America, you all still got the real Trump.

  21. Boris Johnson was in the wrong trade, the right trade for Boris is car salesman.

  22. British PMs seem to resign at the slightest slight compared to America, tough job.

  23. Boris will now have more time for his family and to work on his hair.

  24. He should another swamp creature gone

  25. Many compared Boris to Trump, but Boris just demonstrated he is much more of a man than Trump can dream off. Boris accepted the loss and allows his country to move forward.

  26. He was gracious. Trump is not!

  27. The people heckling him are likely the same dunces who thought this train wreck of a man and Brexit were the path to greatness.

  28. Congratulations Boris on the unexpected early retirement or the beginning of a new chapter. 👏🎊🎉🎊👏

  29. Russia is deleting us in more ways than one.

  30. Still sounded better than Trump! Lol

  31. I'm shocked they don't have a voting system instead of the unprofessional attacks even at a resignation. What awful people.
