If you've not seen it, this is his letter to his MPs.

Al these callers who say "He got the big calls right" seem very light on detail.

* Brexit: Massive queues and a border in the Irish Sea.
* Covid: Dithered about writing his book for 5 weeks, always slow to respond and frequently undermined "the science".
* Covid II: Piles of dosh for Dido's failed project and Rishi's commercial mates, less so for the plebs.
* Economy: Turned out nice again!!

If I can dissect his performance in under a minute, Starmer will rip him to shreds like a Rottweiler on a ragdoll.

Fascinating that all he has is the same bullshit he gets his lackeys to spew out for him that he knows they all know is bullshit, because many of them are the lackeys themselves.

Spotted in the BBC SYB on today's little event.

Tee hee.

It's now 96.

If Dorries has been set off to attack Hunt directly, Johnson is genuinely shitting it. And the fact that has backfired, AND his lack of support to get to May’s support level means people who might have played safe and stayed on side may now think the time is ripe for a strike, can only add to his woes.

I really can barely contain my delight at the utterly horrendous day of reality facing he must be having.

You know, the more I think about it, the more I think that the Tories would be fucking mad to pass up this opportunity to get shot of the lying crook, especially at the present time. He so very obviously has gone from election-winning asset to toxic electoral liability, as was surely confirmed when he was roundly booed by royalists at Brenda's jubbly god-bothering do at St Paul's.

I see that Johnson is pitching the VONC as "a chance to draw a line under Partygate and get behind the PM to deliver". If that's true, then why didn't they do this months ago? Johnson could have called the vote himself.

Hasn't there been form for a party leader to do this in the past? Something's stirring in all the fluff, dander and asbestos dust in the back of my mind...

I’m starting to think he’s been caught unawares. The word was he was safe because there was no ‘challenger’. But Hunt’s statement didn’t come out of nowhere, and today’s resignations are big, and with incredibly strongly worded and powerful resignation letters.

He’s pitching himself to MPs at 4pm, apparently. I’d be willing to bet he fucks it up by going in furious and unrepentant and seals his own fate. But in the meantime it’d be nice if something else leaked today, like a new photo of him on the piss.

I think I may have to go and do my P11D submission to calm down...

Also, he won’t be pleased this is out in plenty of time for wavering MPs to consider…

The list of supporters I've seen so far are basically sycophants, Red Wallers, headbangers and a few voidoids. Dunno if my local MP will support him, but his name is not there.

List's up to 105 now, with this:



Guardian saying Tugendhat a possibility too.

They didn't respect a general election before it happened?

This document is apparently circulating zmongst Tory MPs :

Some Tory party members are losing their shit on Twitter demanding that the party should publish a list of all the MPs who have submitted no confidence letters so that they can be deselected. I'm not sure that such a move would be good for party unity.

Sitting indoors, dodging the sun with a splitting headache here's how it looks.


The whole shit stained edifice is starting to crumble.
"No obvious successor" means that the fall of Boris signals the end of the Brexit/Populist tendency's absolute control of the tories.
The bad news for the few remaining sane tories is: This is a tory project, like it or not, they will have to wear the outcomes.

I see the edifice crumbling, and my only thought is "fuck those guys, fuck the lot".

John Major vs John Redwood in 1995. The "Put up or shut up" vote. Major won it, but what authority he had (already slim due to sleaze and a series of by-election losses) was utterly blown apart.
