Tories Pondering Bringing Back Boris

I have no interest in helping the Conservative Party, i truly wish they get such a shallacking at the General Election that they are never heard of again but i do look at them floundering around so far behind Labour in the polls and wonder if Sunak is such an awful leader, why don't they just replace him like they have done so many times before?
Boris Johnson was ousted because his wilful lies in office were directly affecting the Conservative position and Liz Truss was forced out after her 44 days in power became a disaster but with Sunak on -47 in his poll ratings, equal to Liz Truss when she left office, why is he still there when they have nothing to lose by booting him out and bringing in someone not quite so unpopular?
There is news leaking out that this weekend 50 Conservative MPs and Peers have met to discuss ditching Rishi Sunak but the problem they are having is the dearth of potential leaders to replace him with because the Conservative gene pool of people the public could accept and vote for is disastrously shallow.
They apparently went through the list of potential candidates and dismissed Kemi Badenoch as too argumentative, James Cleverly as too closely linked to the unpopular Rwanada bill, Suella Braverman is far too controversial and Priti Patel faced several bullying allegations and with Penny Mourdant having already lost two leadership contests, came to the conclusion that only one person could save them from electoral oblivion, and that man is...Boris Johnson.
One former Cabinet Minister said: 'If Boris came back for the General Election it could save as many as 80 MPs. It would give Conservatives hope' so i say go get the guy, hand him the keys to number 10 and whatever you do don't look back, especially at the day he announced plans to step down as Prime Minister when a YouGov poll showed Johnson's net favourability at -53 with just 19% of the public having a favourable view after the bare-faced lies at the Partygate enquiry, you remember those parties he said absolutely never happened, although they absolutely did.
As i said at the start, i have no interest in helping the Conservatives but i think they are onto something here and Keir Starmer's Labour must be quaking in their boots at the idea of the man who left office more unpopular than the woman then tanked our entire economy returning as their saviour.
