    Hmm how much does an mp get for resigning and does gove get more for being sacked ?

    I am very much enjoying the schadenfreude of all this. Let the man and his party suffer.
    But by now Johnson and his closest advisors must be destroyed both psychologically and physiologically.
    Johnson does still have access to our Nuclear Codes. He’s still the Prime Minister and must make the ultimate decisions. God forbid a global crisis occurs in the near future, though we all know Putin has been rattling his sabre.
    Should a crisis occur, can we trust Johnson to make rational decisions, or do we have enough checks and balances in place to prevent a disaster curing??

    Piffle! Not even a third of the payroll. Plenty of talent left on the back benches.

    😉

    That’ll be the back benches that overwhelmingly voted to remove Johnson? It’s the payroll vote that saved him in the confidence vote. That’s draining away now.

    TBH he’s been operating from a daily crisis management perspective since the day he took office, I honestly can’t see it making any difference,SSDD.

    Didn’t stop Kirsty from the block labouring the point even further though. She is utterly useless. The Labour rep doesn’t do herself any favours though, the last few times I’ve seen her she has seemed slow witted and walks into traps all too easily.

    She should have just told Wark to stop beimg stupid and left it there.

    Martin Lewis nailed that later in the program. He said we all know the answer, why didn’t she just give it instead of skirting around it and frustrating the whole situation.

    Steve Barclay was just on radio 4 saying he will stand for the leadership, as if the country were crying out for that

    In a spectacular piece of self-congratulationary nonsense he referred to himself in the third person as ‘The Rebel Commander’

    Terrifying! 😳

    They talked about this on BBC last night – the whips who are still in the bunker ringing around MPs last night asking them to fill ministerial posts and getting laughed at down the phone! It is not so much re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titanic as trying to sell tickets for the voyage!

    This is going to end with Boris and Dorries holed up on the second floor of No. 10, armed to the teeth and making ridiculous demands through a loudhailer.  I have in mind that scene in Robocop at the mayors office.

    Sky reporting that a resignation letter is being prepared, not clear though whether that’s by him, or on his behalf.

    Brexit hard man, champion of extreme US republicanism and climate denier Steve Baker is throwing his claw into the ring in a leadership bid.

    I think it was Steve Baker that Binners was on about (not Barclay).

    “Attorney General Suella Braverman says she will stand in any leadership challenge, although doesn’t resign”

    That made me laugh out loud, can you be struck off as a barrister for being insanely delusional?

    …wants to focus on stamping out “woke rubbish”… that’ll keep homes warm this winter.

    She was setting out the exact same stall last night on Peston. You can tell she’s been practicing in front of the mirror… how much she believes Vs how badly she wants the job remains to be seen…

    She’s chasing the core Gammons/Alt-right/DM reader membership votes, but let’s be fair she doesn’t quite align with their “core demographics” and she’s probably pretty easy to defeat in a run off…

    Truss has a better chance with the same voters Braverman is trying to woo…

    Saying that sofa should resign but stay in post, possibly for months, to achieve a smooth hand over.

    He does **** all work anyway, I wonder what it would look like with a bitter ousted PM slacking off all summer?

    Well, if the rumours are to be believed, there will need to be a commercial glass recycling bin outside No. 10 and his dealer will have a pass to Downing Street.

    Braverman proved last night on Peston and again just now on R4 how much of a wack job she is. Completely and utterly delusional. And as of right now still sitting in Boris’ cabinet??!

    Sorry, it washes I meant,yes. As they’re both bland, yet clearly insane nonentities, I often get them confused

    Thats not really fair. Somebody has to announce all those hospitals and nuclear power stations that will never be built

    Another 15 resignations overnight. Has anyone graphed this yet? I’m wondering when he’ll run out of MPs.

    He does **** all work anyway, I wonder what it would look like with a bitter ousted PM slacking off all summer?

    How exactly does one slack off from a two month summer holiday?

    Completely and utterly delusional. And as of right now still sitting in Boris’ cabinet??!

    Perfect qualifications to be present for the final hours in the bunker.

    If anyone can do it, Johnson can. Anyway, apparently he’s still supposed to be running the country when Parliament is in recess.

    I saw this “14 million mandate” crap last night – and pointed out on Twitter to the person saying it that this was less than 25% of us and they may want to ‘rethink’ their slogan.

    The next 12 months are going to be very tough for most of us. And he did this to us. It was always going to be this way, a state, a country, an economy, a population, hamstrung to cope with world events and day to day business and life by a man who only acts for himself. Only cares about himself. You put this man in office, and this is what you get. Slow hand clap for everyone who enabled him, not least these Conservative MPs only now publicly admitting what they’ve always known… that Boris Johnson should not be PM. It will take decades to clear up his mess.

    Good to see that you’ve corrected yourself by the end, it’s going to be tough for the foreseeable future, measured in years not months – and if we are still associating ourselves with 1930’s Germany; we’ve had the ‘Enabling Act’, the ‘Night of the Long Knives’ and in the future (in the wrong order I accept) the ‘Stab in the Back’ where folk believe that THEIR Brexit has been stolen by Remainers etc.

    Can’t Queenie just intervene and tell him to sling his hook, or failing that send in 007 🤔

    That’s both of his new top table ministers gone this morning.
