Johnson's Chaotic Brexit Leadership Raises Concerns if He Returns to Power
-
Johnson's premiership brought back horrors of his openly contemptuous suspension of parliament (proroguing) to force through Brexit. His chaotic leadership is concerning to those wanting him to return.

There are calls for civil service and cabinet reforms to improve machinery of government, but reshuffling deckchairs has often been a refuge for nervous oppositions rather than fixing policy issues.
-

-
Johnson may hypocritically campaign in "red wall" seats he lied to about Brexit benefits.
-
Daily Express risibly claims "Brexit is a great British success story worth billions," contradicting economic evidence of its harm.
