All the many reasons why Johnson's campaign failed

When Conservatives finally started to think

Barbara Faversham is an unassuming 78 year old from Eastbourne who told the Daily Mirror in August that she: 

“...liked Boris - all right he made a few mistakes but don’t we all? I would much prefer him to stay. He has made his apologies and look how he has been going out to Ukraine.”

Barbara’s voice is one of many; hers represents a number of people who would perhaps like to see Boris Johnson return to Downing St - or to have remained there.

An important point however, is that Barbara’s voice is marginal. Although despite being marginal, Barbara’s views [from August], or others - particularly MPs who supported Boris Johnson’s return over the weekend - is not as a result of some strange form of amnesia.

It’s more nightmarish and terrifying than that.
