The danger is not over for the Prime Minister with more than nine lives

For many, the answer was: no.

The Conservative Party is losing nearly 500 council seats around the country.

Local tori leaders describe how, above all, the party scandal has aroused anger and disappointment among voters.

A crisis of confidence simply.

But is the election result a disaster for Boris Johson?

Even there, the answer is no.

A tough bang but no total meltdown.

Several British media outlets describe a meeting on 10 Downing Street on Friday where a chief adviser is said to have said: "Ok, the sky did not fall down so now we drive!"

The sight is now set for May 10 and the ceremony "Queen's Speech" when the government's plans for the coming year will be presented.

Dissatisfaction is still burning

Although dissatisfaction with Boris Johnson is raging among conservative MPs, no immediate demands for resignation have been heard since the election.

It is largely a matter of there being no obvious successor to Boris Johnson.

If a prime minister is to be deposed, there must be someone who can take over.

For a long time, Finance Minister Rishi Sunak looked like that person.

But now he is blackened.

Partly by a tax scandal concerning his wife, partly by the fact that he too was fined after partygate.

But it also matters that the main opposition party, Labor, made a mediocre choice, apart from clear successes in London.

According to 10 Downing Streets' views, this proves that Labor under party leader Keir Starmer is not a threat ahead of the next parliamentary elections.

The beer scandal and the cost of living crisis

In addition, Keir Starmer has the lead role in his very own scandal called beergate, the beer scandal.

On Friday, the police announced that they intend to investigate whether Starmer has violated the strict pandemic rules when he drank beer with colleagues during the campaign work in April 2021. A guilty verdict can be very difficult for the Labor leader, who loudly demanded the resignation of Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak.

Although Boris Johnson survives the partygate, other major challenges await around the corner.

The Bank of England warns that inflation in the UK could soon reach ten percent.

The so-called cost of living crisis means that many Britons can not afford to pay for electricity or food.

The danger is thus far from over for the Prime Minister, the man with significantly more than nine lives.
