Kier Starmer: The sinking ship is fleeing the rat.

Unusually witty and cutting for him. Did make me chuckle though.

Another one bites the dust.
Stuart Andrew resigns as Housing Minister.
Last person out, please switch off the lights.

But doesn't BJ have the party over a barrel here ?

If Sir Graham Brady goes to No10 and says BJ you got to go otherwise we change the rules. BJ just turns around and says "Sure, but I calling a general election, so tell the MP's that 60% or so will probably lose their seats"

Question would then be are the MP's willing to take that risk or just wait another year ?

The situation has become so comical I doubt many Tory MPs are happy being a Tory MP at the moment. You only need to look at their glum faces at PMQs. Even the cabinet is beginning to look as uneasy as Putin's top brass.

I'm a bit surprised that more of the lost Conservative seats aren't projected to go to the LibDems. I'd love to see a general election where Johnson not only gets humiliated but loses his own seat, which is a real possibility.

This the most likely scenario you would think. It seems BJ doesn't want to go without a fight.

We so don't need a general election thrown into all the other junk that's going on at the moment.

The queen could still refuse him, there is some old convention were if a few grounds were all are true she would not grant one

Somebody's enjoying this more than I am.

Michael Grove tells Boris to go today.

What are friends for eh?

[greenmark]

If he survives today I'll be staggered. Resignations now heading for Theresa May territory and are well beyond Major and Thatcher.
He's in big, big trouble.
