Johnson Has Turned Tory Leadership Into ‘Poisoned Chalice’ for His Replacement, Observers Say_我的网站

一 |     Any attempt by the Conservative Party to pull a Margaret Thatcher-John Major-style leadership turnaround post-Johnson will be no easy task thanks to the Tories’ national unpopularity, and there is no clear frontrunner to replace him anyway. In the meantime, very little of substance will change in Britain’s foreign or domestic policy, whether it comes from the UK’s entanglement in the Ukraine crisis, or the cost of living emergency at home, academics, observers of British politics and ex-politicians have told Sputnik.,“This decision by Boris Johnson will have some impact on any future general election,” Alistair Jones, associate professor of politics at De Montfort University, explained in an interview. Johnson, Jones noted, had long been seen as an electoral asset to the Conservatives due to his affable personality and public endorsement.,“However, with what has gone on over the past two or three years, not just the Chris Pincher saga recently, but all the lying to parliament that has gone on, the fact that he has also lied to the monarch, there that there has been a lot of cronynism, there have been some dodgy dealings with particular companies getting contracts to provide personal protective equipment to the NHS with no previous experience of doing so. All of this has tarnished him,” the academic explained.,From Getting Brexit Done to Sleazy MPs: The Rise and Fall of Boris Johnson12:17 GMT,Jones emphasized that whoever replaces the outgoing prime minister, they will have the unenviable task of trying to wipe the slate clean of the scandals surrounding his government.,“In the same way that John Major did after he replaced Margaret Thatcher [in 1990] and of course, Major went on to win the subsequent general election,” Jones said. The problem, he believes, is that “as things stand…the Conservative Party is so unpopular…that anybody taking over as party leader, they are going to be taking on something of a poisoned chalice.”,© AP Photo / STRBritish Prime Minister John Major,right,talks to former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher while they are seated at the podium on opening day of the Conservative Party convention in Bournemouth, England, Tuesday Oct. 8, 1996British Prime Minister John Major,right,talks to former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher while they are seated at the podium on opening day of the Conservative Party convention in Bournemouth, England, Tuesday Oct. 8, 1996© AP Photo / STR,Political analyst and former MEP Nick Griffin concurs, saying that Johnson’s status within his party as “talisman for electoral victory”-turned “millstone around their necks” will give the Tories only a “brief window of opportunity to persuade voters that the Conservatives have turned over a new leaf and can be trusted more than the thoroughly uninspiring (and equally anti-Russian) Keir Starmer,” the leader of the Labour Party.,Humiliating Inevitability,Mark Garnett, a professor of politics at Lancaster University, and author of numerous books on British politics, including ‘The British Prime Minister in an Age of Upheaval’, and ‘From Anger to Apathy: The British Experience Since 1975’, considers Johnson’s resignation in disgrace to have been an inevitability, and suggested that “by clinging to office long after his departure became inevitable, the prime minister “exposed the weaknesses of Britain’s unwritten constitution.”,“Now that he has gone there should be a serious review of a system which could produce a leader whose unsuitability for the job was obvious to serious observers long before he became prime minister,” Dr. Garnett said.,Laura McAllister, a professor of public policy at the Wales Governance Centre, similarly indicated that Johnson’s resignation had become unavoidable, and suggested that the way it has transpired has been a humiliation to the office and the nation.,“He’s eventually bowed to pressure in a humiliating way, I have to say. And this shows a certain lack of dignity and respect for the views of not only his colleagues in government, but the public at large, where he’s clearly lost authority, trust and respect,” McAllister said.,No Clear Candidate for Takeover,There is no shortage of Tory officials and lawmakers to replace BoJo, including former chancellor of the exchequer Rishi Sunak and former secretary of state for health Sajid Javid, minister of state for trade policy Penny Mordaunt, deputy prime minister Dominic Raab and even foreign secretary Liz Truss. But what all of the observers queried by Sputnik agree on is that there is no clear frontrunner for the job.,As UK's Johnson Teeters On The Edge, Here Are The Top Contenders To Succeed As Next Tory PMYesterday, 09:58 GMT,“I notice that both the pound and the stock market have risen since the resignation. Those who had not resigned from [Johnson’s] discredited government before today will not be in the running to succeed him,” Rodney Atkinson, an academic, political and economic commentator and businessman, predicted. “Truss in particular with her irresponsible war mongering not only in Ukraine but around the world was in any case no longer credible. Rishi Sunak might have improved his chances but Nadhim Zahawi who replaced him has not,” he said.,Griffin agrees, pointing to the longstanding British political tradition that “‘he who wields the knife’ against a prime minister is not likely to replace his victim. So despite the high profile role of Sunak and Javid in the ousting of the disgraced Johnson, his successor is likely to be chosen from among those who stayed ‘loyal’ a little longer,” the observer believes.,“There can be no doubt that the White Hall and intelligence services ‘Deep State’ will want the succession to go to an MP with a particularly strong track record of Russophobia and outspoken support for NATO’s puppet regime in Kiev,” the observer said, noting that for this reason Truss and secretary of state for defense Ben Wallace will likely be “pushed forward as frontrunners.”,Professor McAllister noted that there is no shortage of contenders, but only two or three possible favorites. “One would expect that to include potentially Dominic Raab, potentially Sajid Javid, potentially Rishi Sunak, but obviously all of those have issues around them. Liz Truss, possibly, and outsiders, [health and social care select committee chair] Jeremy Hunt. [Deputy chairman of the COVID recovery group] Steve Baker said that he will stand. [Possibly attorney general for England and Wales] Suella Braverman.”,Academics See No Clear Exit for Johnson or Replacement PMYesterday, 17:44 GMT,More of the Same at Home and Abroad,The experts predicted that Britain’s foreign and domestic policies not change, whoever is in charge.,“While millions of Brits are today celebrating the resignation of Boris Johnson, no one should think that whoever follows him will be any better, or any less dangerous in terms of their foreign policy decisions,” Griffin stressed.,The observer believes that the next election, whenever it takes place, “is going to be fought against the backdrop of the economic and social catastrophe created by the entire Westminster elite,” and that “whoever is in charge, they are going to be hammered at the polls as the public protest at the impact of the elite’s triple suicide efforts of dismantling Britain’s energy supply with the ‘green agenda’, their hysterical Covid lockdown and money-printing spree, and their self-defeating [Russia] sanctions regime.”,“The only thing that might save the Conservatives from a long period out of office is the fact that the Labour Party has turned its back on working class bread and butter policies in favor of an obsession with LGBTQ+ and other woke dogmas,” Griffin thinks.,Ultimately, according to the observer, while Britain’s new “captain” can “give orders for some minor rearrangements of the deckchairs,” the ship of state “will continue to sink” thanks to the globalist policies which sparked the current cost of living crisis, and to which the country’s current crop of elites is addicted to.,Boris Johnson Quits as Conservative Party Leader & Prime Minister11:31 GMT,Professor Jones also believes that when it comes to major changes in domestic or foreign policy, “the reality is nothing is going to change.”,“The UK Government will stand very strongly alongside the government of Ukraine, giving them the support that they have done throughout the entire war. And in domestic politics, if we look at the cost of living crisis again, nothing much is going to change. I think what will be interesting will be to see, whoever takes over as party leader, who they then appoint to their cabinet, and what tinkering will be done to the British economy and the whole British social structure. The reality is there's not a lot can be done in the short term until these changes that the Johnson government has started to put through, actually filter through. In many respects, for the next 18 months and maybe even longer, up until our next general election, it's likely to be more of the same,” Jones explained.。    　　【好评中国】中安时评 | 从“避暑”到“避暑+”，文旅融合的新解法　　清晨七点，曲靖的窗外凉风习习，十九度的气温让人几乎忘了此刻正是盛夏。来自全国各地的避暑客推开窗，深吸一口带着草木清香的空气，这样的场景，正在西南这座小城的无数个窗口重复上演。越来越多的人开始意识到，避暑不一定要去热门景区人挤人，那些藏在山间的小城，或许才是夏天最舒服的打开方式。　　像这样的“候鸟”游客，正成为近年来暑期出游的一支主力。中国气象局不久前发布2026年全国避暑气候资源地图，覆盖45个优质避暑区域，从高原到滨海、从森林到山地，清凉场景越来越多元。避暑游，正在从“找个凉快地儿”变成一种有深度、有黏性的生活方式。　　变化背后，首先是对气候资源的深度挖掘。在内蒙古牙克石，凤凰山景区冬季存下的十万立方米雪，经过层层包裹，竟能跨越三季不化。

二 | 五百米长的雪道铺展在浓绿山林间，反季节滑雪成了这里独一无二的标签。这个夏天，牙克石单日接待游客超万人次，今年以来累计接待游客近两百万人次，旅游收入同比增长近一成。而滨洲铁路将这座林中小城拉进了哈尔滨两小时生活圈，越来越多的南方游客坐着火车北上，在盛夏里体验一把“冬日的速度与激情”。

三 | 一座缺少文旅辨识度的城市，靠着一捧跨越三季的雪和一条延伸进林海的铁路，找到了自己的节奏。气候资源不再是被动等待的“天时”，而是可以被设计、被运营、被延展的文旅资产。　　比资源更稀缺的，是服务的能力。曲靖把避暑游客从“过路”变成“常驻”，靠的不只是十九度的气温，而是一整套服务体系。爱心公交卡、低价“候鸟食堂”、外地车辆首次轻微违章只警告不处罚……甚至连专为川渝游客搭建的“百姓大舞台”，让旅居者从旁观者变成参与者，从“来住”变成“来生活”。旅居不再是寄居，而是一种日常的延续。当一座城市把游客当作临时的市民，游客便愿意把这里当作临时的家。如今，当地已累计为避暑游客办理爱心公交卡三万余张，这个数字背后，是人们对一座城市归属感的朴素丈量。　　避暑游的需求也在升级。在新疆天山天池，动力滑翔伞、热气球、骑马射箭把滑雪场变成了避暑度假地；阿勒泰将军山滑雪场的山野露天影院、篝火歌舞，让夜生活不再只在城市里发生；赛里木湖畔推窗可见繁星，独库公路一日穿越四季，博斯腾湖上泛舟赏月，避暑不止于“降温”，更是一场关于“慢下来”的完整生活提案。今年暑期，亲子用户飞往新疆主要目的地的机票预订热度同比增长超38%，平均停留天数超过7天，较往年增加1.2天。兰新高铁的持续加密，正将“去新疆避暑”从愿望清单变为触手可及的日常，从兰州到乌鲁木齐，朝发夕至，车窗外的风景从黄土高原渐变为雪山草原，旅程本身便是一场清凉的预告。从“走马观花”到“驻足停留”，避暑游的消费链条正在拉长。　　当清凉资源从“老天爷赏饭”变为可运营、可持续的产业动能，避暑经济便不再是季节性迁徙的短暂热潮，而是消费升级背景下旅游供给侧改革的生动样本。这股清流所过之处，带动的不仅是文旅消费的增长，更是区域发展活力的释放、城乡融合的加深，以及“绿水青山”向“金山银山”转化的新路径。　　作者：曹忠伟　　来源：中安在线。
