I bet they're having another fucking party at number 10.

Who's getting offered the £100k job now ?

Starmer isn’t the best orator, but whoever writes his speeches should give those selves a pat on the back after PMQ today.

’charge of the lightweight brigade’ and ‘z-list cast of nodding dogs’ were my particular favourites.

He does have a very good sense of humour but there has been precious little to laugh about for some time. As a former QC he will be used to writing his own closing speeches so I would imagine he mostly writes his own material. Angela Rayner said that he tends to work on his PMQ stuff himself.

Are you sure?

As the leader of the opposition he should have been pissing his pants every day for the past six months at least.  This is the reaction he should have been having for months but for some reason hasn't bothered.

His pmq stuff is mostly thinking on his feet as it would be in a court setting. His stuff in front of the cameras feels scripted and wooden and I'd be surprised if they're his words.

Years ago I used to watch 'Crossroads', 'Coronation St' and 'East Enders' (I am ashamed to say)

Nowadays I am engrossed in all things Parliamentary.

Not much difference in the then and now I think.

Surprising odds - Ruth Davidson and Johnnny Mercer top, both miles better than Trusss or Patel.  Yes I know odds arent predictions but do indicate where most people are putting their money.

Fuck me. No wonder bookies make money. Anyone putting money on Davidson needs sectioning and their bank account frozen. You’ve more chance of going to the moon in a shoebox.

You should money on it, you'd get great odds!

Here’s one for you to get behind pal, intellectual colossus and ‘Brexit hard man’ Steve Baker has thrown his hat in the ring before, could he do it again?

The rest of the cabinet do realise that this isn't the end of it and they will still forever be the worst cabinet in history?

They have sat around that table and encouraged the corrupt crook to randomly ejaculate and throw his shit everywhere for the last few years, so they will always be covered in it.

As for Zahawi - he's a fucking piece of work, this will be about three U-turns in 72 hours.

I can't wait to hear his simple explanation of what changed during his tea break.

He  moves at warp speed and sometimes gets the decisions wrong.

He's apparently refusing to quit because it would lead to chaos.

Cant Speak Nathan Fillion GIF

Monday's elections to the 1922 will almost certainly now include the necessary rule change for a second vote to remove him.

His missus is going to tell him to jack it in overnight. That, and probably some more senior resignations.

He did already but he just looks like a massive prick now.

He won't go just yet, a bad day at the office, week a long time in politics etc, getting on with the job, huge mandate, delivering, ramping up, leveling up, leveling the ramp, mandate, ramping up the level, Ukraine, leveling Ukraine - woops.

You missed large tax cuts.

I've not witnessed this level of implosion in a government ever, particularly after "surviving" a no confidence vote. Was the bollock tickler the final straw?

I did laugh that even in a group of back stabbing snakes jostling for position to replace their leader, Gove manages to outdo the others in his useless duplicitousness and get fired. Another one who will never change.

I only heard snippets from tha liaison committee, but he got savaged. A bit more of that, a lot sooner would have been good.

Superb

Brandon Lewis gone. Annoyingly going to be very busy at work today so won’t get to see developments

The main positive with mass resignations is that a generation of unemployable yet over-promoted yes-men and women are leaving the building to never be seen again - presumably all thinking that this will just be a cool and temporary moral stand because they're so good the new leader will be desperate to reappoint them...but those phones will never ring.

The silence of the sheep.

Still seeing commentators still on about "Boris could just go for a general election" like he can just go and run that by himself like a Twitter poll.

On R4 yesterday someone said that the Queen could refuse to dissolve Parliament if she thought a GE was being called purely as a selfish act of self promotion.

How is the country going to function with no levelling up being done today?
