BoJo will be back

I really don't see anything stopping Boris Johnson from making a triumphant (well, not triumphant) return to Downing Street. He has interrupted his holiday in the Carribean for heaven's sake, so he must be reasonably confident. Whether Carrie, his wife, is happy I somehow doubt and I can imagine the conversation they must have had while gazing at the calm blue waters of the Carribean. "Do you really want to give up all the riches you are going to make as an ex-prime minister and all those trips we planned to go back to that hellhole?" she probably said. "It's my destiny," he must have replied. "The riches can come later.....er darling." So he's on his way back to sound out his colleagues about going for the Big Job again. He already knows, thanks to his fellow Etonian colleague Jacob Rees-Mogg, that he has been inundated with promises from Tory MPs to back him. Even Ben Wallace, the defence secretary who doesn't want the Downing Street job, has said he is leaning towards a Boris return. That's the new expression. The country, like it or not, is leaning towards Boris. Again.
