Johnson, who led the main Brexit campaign in the 2016 referendum, resigned as foreign minister on Monday over Mays strategy which he said was killing the Brexit dream with self-doubt.
Theresa May has got a lot of great qualities I am not sure if it is the right leader at the right time, Bannon, Trumps former strategist and a key player in his 2016 election campaign, was quoted by the Daily Telegraph as saying. Mays government was rattled by the departures of Johnson and her chief Brexit negotiator David Davis just days after she appeared to have gained the support of her cabinet for her strategy at a meeting at her Chequers country residence.
Asked if now was the moment for Johnson to lead the country, Bannon, who was fired by the White House in August 2017, said: I believe moments come. It is like Donald Trump... people dismissed him.

But, I say elect Niger Farage the man.

Nigel’s absence as a direct political player has been gravely felt...Not sure if Boris Johnson has the stuff.
I think a Tory/UKIP coalition government could be just what the Brexit doctor ordered.
Id love to see that but Im not sure the Brits have the courage to do that. Nigal is terrific and represents the Brits we always think of, strong, tough and stiff upper lip. Im afraid those men are part of the past and the dandies have taken their place
Youre right but the Torys are too timid and stupid to ally with UKIP.
‘Niger’?
May is a leftist non sovereigntist. I am glad to see Bannon on stage again. What a great conservative nationalist.
Johnson had his shot:

And blinked, which is a disgualifier in my book. Can’t be funny in politics. But he has the backing of Rees-Mogg, who is a bit of an egghead and a throwback, but otherwise seems all right in a British sort of way:
Farage may go back to UKIP:
Funny = gun shy .
Not many people know this, but Nigel fronted a pop band in the ‘80s under the pseudonym “Nick Heyward”

Only a weak enough election result could *maybe* lead them to actually consider the indignity.
Except UKIP has no currently elected members of Parliament.
Bannon was on Hannity’s radio show last week.
His voice didn’t sound like I expected.
I expected gruff, tough, but it was higher pitched and wonky.
THANKS
Nigel was one cool kid!

Nigel in earlier years ..... as you said.
We’re all just making plans for Nigel.
Farage says all the right things. But there’s a significant chance he’s controlled opposition via Freemasons.
LOL
Brilliant!
Boris Johnson would make all the difference in that he’s not a freemason.
