LONDON: British Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Wednesday defended his record about overcoming Pandemic Coronavirus, after nearly 100 members of his own parliament broke and rebelled against new restrictions.
The rebellion was the second largest by conservative parliamentarians because they chose to oppose the Brexit agreement of its predecessor in 2019.
Although the steps to fight the spread of the omicron variant passed, the scale of resistance surprises many and provided a clear message about Johnson leadership and authority.
In Parliament, the leader of Keir Starmer’s main opposition official said Johnson was “the worst prime minister at the worst time that was possible” and “was too weak to lead”.
“The parliamentarians themselves are enough.
They will not defend him.
They will not appear to support him.
They will not choose basic public health steps,” he said.
Johnson, who has warned “tidal waves” from Omicron who can defeat health services, say he understands “legitimate anxiety” colleagues.
But he added: “I believe the approach we took balanced and proportional and right for this country.” Johnson will be very aware of the implications for supporters like that: Tory MPS imposes internal sounds not believing in May and he must stop.
Conservative parliament members indicate that they have not at that stage.
But Mark Harper, his former player in Parliament, told Times Radio was “a very clear message that colleagues were unhappy” with the current government.
Conservative MP Geoffrey-Clifton-Brown said Johnson, who secured the majority of 80 seats in the last general election, were needed to listen.
If he failed to do it, he could face the challenges of leadership in the new year, he added.
– Installing a scandal – Tory rebellion could not come at a worse time, with a party after beating in recent weeks by a series of scandals.
But it could be worse if they lost by -ur elections in a safe chair of North Shropshire, in Central England, on Thursday.
Many people in constituencies say they will vote at the recent Johnson record, only two years after a general election victory pounding at the appointment to “complete Brexit”.
“This man is not suitable to become the prime minister,” said the voter Garry Churchill, 71, told AFP.
“I can’t imagine why people will choose conservative candidates in this election.” The selection of by-selection was asked by the resignation of the Conservative MP Owen Paterson for violations of parliamentary lobby rules.
Johnson caused anger by trying to change the procedure of parliamentary discipline to set aside the 30-day suspension paterson and was forced to be an embarrassing u-turn.
He also faced Dodgy’s claim dealing after the election supervisor was a suspicious of the conservatives for failing to declare who paid for the luxurious decoration of the official flat.
The accusations of the crima were compounded by the report that the rich party donor was given a plot seat at the House of Lords.
– ‘Shouts of Pain’ – Handling Johnson as a whole against the government’s response to the Pandemic Coronavirus, however, has come under the most supervision, with 146,000 deaths and high infection rates.
Public health messages and compliance have been damaged by government staff claims held by the last Christmas Party, despite telling the public to cancel them.
For many Tories, new steps to Omicron, especially the vaccine trajectory for nightclubs and sports venues, is an unacceptable attack on public freedom.
Charles Walker from the Conservative MPS Committee of the 1922 Backbench which strongly said his colleagues “put markers” by choosing against the government.
“It was the cry of the pain of the conservative party,” he told the BBC.
With awkwardly the government with a large majority, Johnson must rely on labor support on Tuesday to get a pass.
Starmer said labor has shown leadership but Johnson must now consider whether he has “trust and authority to lead”.
