It's all falling apart alarmingly fast for Boris Johnson across the water. How long you reckon he has left as British Prime Minister? Hours surely?
How many parties are they talking about now? I've lost count.

For any football fans on here, Squires had a bit of fun yesterday.
Coffey definitely is doing what shes being accused of
seems apt
The artificial intelligence that tracks our online activity and pushes ads our way is getting very clever. This just appeared on my IG feed…..
What I want to know is, where the hell was Nanny????????????????
Andrew Neil now tweeting 50/50 Truss is gone by morning.
This is fun
Wow it really looks like one of those accidental renaissance photos.
Anytime I go to do something else, this lot bring me back to Sky News.
I don't think I've ever seen anything like this before.
The chief whip and deputy apparently have not resigned after all.
but did not vote with the government!
This Tory backbencher seems one of the good guys. Admits that Truss and her entire cabinet are a shambles and are only interested in power for power's sake.
Telegraph reporting that Sir Graham Brady has met Truss today - the second time in 72 hours. If Walker's outburst above is indicative of the backbenchers feelings, she won't last much longer.
The Tories can't realistically get away with appointing a third Prime Minister though. It won't help them electorally at all. They simply do not have the mandate to do this and appointing a third PM in the space of as many months will infuriate voters.
The lad playing the Benny Hill music outside No 10 at the start of news at 10 report 🤣🤣
Steve Bray?
He sounded more concerned about the fate of the Tory party, and Tory MPs’ mortgages, than the country, tbh.
I’m inclined to feel the same. Not likely to go so soon unless she’s pushed to resign.
It does make me wonder though…if Truss goes tomorrow…how would that work? What would happen?
Deputy PM becomes backup PM? New leadership contest? Election? Interesting times…
He did stress though that it's a self serving PM and entire cabinet who don't give a toss about the public or the national interest. That's a big admission from a Tory backbencher.
This tweet tho:

She has to go by the weekend. Hasn't she?
Not sure, off camera but very possible.
Heard ABBAs money money money and I predict a riot in there too and Entry of the gladiators🤣
It's great in a way to see its not silenced ...and entertaining for me!
The Tories are absolutely f*cked in the next election. I would be inclined to think that, if they get rid of Truss now, they should take the electoral hit now instead of allow all of this to fester until 2024 with a third or possibly even 4th PM in this cycle. It will only get worse before it gets any better for them.
However, political parties are so power hungry that long-term planning is completely alien to them. The Tories are no different.
His name is Steve Bray, some say the "noisy protest" laws were created specifically for him.
Truss will be gone in the morning. The spooks won't want this hilarious situation where the supposed leader or the visible head of their elected government has about as much power as a worker wasp in December. $hit is about to seriously kick off in Ukraine and the British spooks are one of the main backers involved.
He isn't.
All he cares about is the damage to "the party" as he said in that video not the country. He is worried about losing his job at the next GE.
He has already announced that he is not running at the next GE. Still goes on about the party, though.
Fair enough,rest of my point stands.

Heads up for anyone who likes a punt on these things, the odds setters in Paddy Power finish work at 6pm and politcal events in the evening can sometimes catch them out. Which is why Braverman is 16/1 right now to be the next Tory leader. She wont be 16/1 when they get back to work in the morning, more like 4 or 5/1. Just put a fiver on it myself for a bit of interest
Normally I'd say you won't be seeing that fiver again ...but with the way things have been going....
When you have lost Lord Frost then your days (hours?) are numbered.
