Brendan Clarke-Smith – 2022 Comments on Boris Johnson Returning as Prime Minister

The comments made by Brendan Clarke-Smith, the Conservative MP for Bassetlaw, on Twitter on 20 October 2022.

We need somebody who can turn the tide and avert the disaster of a Labour government. We need Boris Johnson.

He won the support of the public with a historic 80 seat majority. He won the support of the party. He is a winner.

It’s time for the parliamentary party to unite and come together for the sake of the country.

Together we can achieve so much more and build on the mandate we were given in 2019.

That’s why I’m urging Boris Johnson to put his name forward.
