Boris could RETURN as Prime Minister, with an astonishing plan being hatched by disgruntled Conservative MPs – and a ‘dream ticket’ leadership tie with Nigel Farage is even being considered!

Boris Johnson could return as Prime Minister under astonishing plans being hatched by Tory MPs – with a ‘dream ticket’ leadership tie with Nigel Farage even being considered.

The Mail on Sunday has spoken to several Conservative MPs who believe bringing back the former Prime Minister is the only way to save the party from election collapse.

It comes as Rishi Sunak faces a crucial vote on Tuesday on his flagship migrant plan for Rwanda, which will see whips using threats and curses to quell an uprising – reportedly even offering peerages to would-be rebels if they sign up hold the line.

This newspaper can reveal that Mr Sunak’s Tory enemies have drawn up what they are crudely calling an ‘Advent calendar of s**t’ to further destabilize the Prime Minister following his sacking of Suella Braverman as Home Secretary and the resignation of Robert Jenrick as Immigration Secretary. about attempts to save the Rwanda plan.

MPs plan to riot in the House of Commons votes and intervene more and more openly, with Number 10 nervously bracing for further ministerial resignations. One conspirator admitted the aim was to ‘crash’ Sunak’s government and install a leader who could bridge the gap with Sir Keir Starmer’s Labor Party.

MPs are panicking over polls showing declining Tory support, with many voters turning to the Reform Party, successor to Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party. Farage’s fortunes have been boosted by Farage’s successful run in ITV reality show I’m A Celebrity.

This newspaper can reveal that Rishi Sunak’s Tory foes have drawn up an ‘Advent calendar of s**t’ to further destabilize the Prime Minister.

The Tory rebels claim Johnson is the only Conservative with the pulling power to neutralize Farage’s impact, particularly in the Red Wall seats in the Midlands and the North that he took from Labor in the 2019 general election. Although Trade Minister Kemi Badenoch has emerged as another leading candidate among MPs.

However, Number 10 insists Sunak will deter the conspirators and lead the Tories into the next election.

Last night, a spokesman for Johnson declined to be swayed by his political ambitions and denied the existence of plans to work with Farage. He said: ‘Boris Johnson is currently writing a book and supporting the government.’

A source close to Mr Farage insisted that any pact between the two heavyweights would “soon end in tears”. However, it is understood MPs have privately urged the pair to talk.

Mr Sunak faces a test of his authority on Tuesday when MPs will vote on the principle of whether the law should be tightened in a bid to save his plan to send Channel migrants to Rwanda.

Mr Jenrick resigned because he felt the legislation did not go far enough. However, MPs will not have the chance to debate and vote on potentially divisive amendments until the new year, limiting their chances of rebellion.

Ms Braverman denies having plans to topple Mr Sunak and claims she hopes he will lead the party into the next election.

Neither Mr Johnson nor Mr Farage is currently in Parliament, but Boris’s supporters believe that if an MP were to vacate his safe seat before the election to make way for Mr Johnson, the Tory high command would lose the seat couldn’t block.

A leadership battle would then ensue if at least 53 letters of no confidence in Mr Sunak were sent to Sir Graham Brady, chairman of the backbench 1922 Committee.

Another suggestion is that a Johnson ally, such as former Home Secretary Priti Patel, could be installed as interim Prime Minister, with Mr Johnson taking a safe seat at the election and then returning to Number 10. If reforms remained a threat, a deal could be struck to give Mr Farage, the party’s honorary chairman, and Richard Tice, its leader, places in the Lords and key ministerial positions.

But Reform Party officials said their goal was to kill the Conservatives. One told The Mail on Sunday: ‘When Nigel comes back [from the ITV reality show] he is going to dominate the agenda. In about six to eight weeks, polls will be in the high teens, and the Tories will start to fall below 20 percent.

‘At that point, between five and 10 MPs will realize it’s game over and defect to us. Then the game is over. We are watching the last Tory majority government of our lifetimes. We’re going to destroy them.’

Party donors are already starting to switch. The co-owners of Bristol Ports, who have donated more than £640,000 to the Tories since 2001, recently donated £100,000 to Reform.

Mr Farage has been able to reach millions of voters through the popular ITV programme, which concludes today. Yesterday the Reform Party emailed subscribers to ‘go against the establishment’ and vote for Farage to be crowned King of the Jungle. Mr Tice wrote: ‘Our man has had an excellent reputation for Brexit, in front of the Remainer campmates who have constantly challenged his views on air.’

A Tory MP said: ‘If Farage comes back he will be all over the airwaves, and he will have us in his sights.’

Another said: ‘Reforms are going to kill us so we need to buy off Farage. The plan is that we get him into the Lords, give him some briefs like we did with Cameron – maybe even the Home Secretary – and then take the dream team to the country.

‘It may not be enough to win, but it would certainly reinvigorate our base, shake up the debate and give Starmer something to think about.’

Surprisingly, Mr Johnson’s supporters in the parliamentary party include MPs who helped oust him from Downing Street last year after a rebellion over scandals including Partygate.

A Red Wall MP told the MoS: “I came out early to tell him to go. But I think we need to think outside the box now. Whatever you think about him, one thing no one can doubt is his effectiveness as a campaigner. And we need that now, we’re staring at destruction.”

Johnson’s shares are believed to have risen following his performance at the Covid Inquiry, which one supporter said showed he can be serious and ‘on top of the details’.

Mr Johnson and his close aide Lord Kempsell have been preparing for months for his appearance, in which he apologized for the “pain and loss and suffering” suffered by Covid victims and their families.

However, one ex-cabinet minister warned that Johnson’s comeback could be thwarted by his old rival Lord Cameron, the foreign secretary. But they added: ‘That said, if Boris was still in the House of Commons he would be back by now. A coronation would take place. Just look at the polls. Boris is by far the best campaigner we have. If you want to have a chance of voting in the next elections, then Boris is your man.’

The MP added that replacing Mr Sunak with someone else currently in the House of Commons would ‘make matters worse rather than better’.
