Could lead to regime change in the near future, although I doubt it. Possibly at the next election Labour will win, as it's looking less likely that the conservatives will win after all the negative press and scandals they have been involved with.

But who knows, perhaps the conservatives will pull it out of the bag.

Don't know if I would call it regime change lol.

I would consider a regime change any of the following:
- New leader
- New government
- New cabinet

Depends on the corporations backing them, or is that only in the US?

This is t even a blip compared to American politicians.
Gavin Newsom attending a private party at the French laundry restaurant when Cali was locked down and public restaurant were closed.
So what Boris is worthless but he doesn’t do what any politician in any country of any party has always done.
What about the labor politicians in England that broke travel restrictions to run around.
Yawn !!
