I think that if Boris was to lose his seat he would remain as Tory leader and a candidate in a safe seat would be encouraged to stand aside, possibly by moving them up to the House of Lords, and Boris would then stand in that seat in a by-election.

...or they might seize the opportunity to 'dump the toxic' and look for a leader more able to appeal across the political divides (plural). But that is only my fantasy land.
 
I imagine the Cons will get a small majority, all for it to fall apart at the next Brexit hurdle. See you all in May 2020!

...talk with young people looking with trepidation to the future given how things are today; talk with those in no, or low paid, jobs and who are really struggling under the yolk of the last 9 years of Tory government - and ask them how quickly they need help and support back onto their feet.

Then tell them how long they have to wait for the brave new world that is the UK out of the EU, and that their further short term, few more years, pain might be worth it in the long run. And tell them that the funding for the sorts of things they need will have to wait until the country can afford it - and tell them that we have to wait for the economy to deliver as the money can't be raised through increased taxes on those in work and the wealthier.

So you'd permit debt to rise and, like McDonnel, hope to be able to pay it back later. Fat chance when companies have relocated because the cost of employing people and tax has made the UK uncompetitive. Continual borrowing at unsustainable levels is what Greece, Italy and Spain etc thought was wise, the well qualified youngsters in those places are looking for any jobs.
