Zahawi just gone in to Number 10. No statement of support from him yet.

Steve Barclay new Health Secretary. Who's the new Chancellor? Simon Clarke?

Tamworth could actually be an interesting by-election. Lots of Labour drift to Kipper to Tory. I'd guess a few of those are likely to have "traditional values", like not liking the PM lying his arse off to them.

Michelle Donelan, who looked particularly ashen-faced this morning, is in No 10 now.

What's the betting Zahawi gets Chancellor and Donelan gets Education?

I'm guessing a coversion to (electoral) Keynsianism is likely for the new Chancellor.

Yep. We used to have Caroline Spelman. Don't know much about this chap at all, bit of a non-entity.

Who's staying and who's undecided.

Well, they had a vote of confidence to try and get rid of Alex a month ago, and if I'm right they can't call another one on him until June next year.

This is obviously unsubstantiated stuff from a Sun journalist, so don't believe a word of it. Ha ha ha.

Liz Truss.

As Chancellor.

Seems to be a lot of PPS’s resigning, not exactly seismic in the grand scheme of things

In a way it's quite damning, in that they don't have a big position to hold on to.

This looks typically ill-judged.

Ah, apols Bones.

G-GBNI is the registration of Boris Air Force One. I was half expecting it to be airborne and heading for Kyiv at this point in time....
