12:06 pm

12:08 pm
scandals. the last one was about party gade, where he was breaking his own, knocked on rules. but now it seems really like it's the end of the line, and yet he is not willing to go. there was no sign that was johnson actually himself, ah, makes any noise that can be interpreted as his towards his resignation. so it will need another push from these rebels and there are many rebels to actually make him go oberg. let's have a look at what some brits think about their p. m. he had a very difficult time with it to carry rate. i don't think any time in doubt. well, go. yeah, i'm just price is still there. so i really think he's his hours now the counting the hours. so let's say i think he should stay home because i think you've done an amazing job over friction cove
