How bizarre. Has she forgotten which lobby is which? Glued herself under the desk? Gone to Ukraine?

It can't be true that Liz Truss rebelled. Surely it can't be true. So she's voted no confidence in herself?

She has no confidence in herself?!

Just watched the Deputy Prime Minister practically pick up a hesitant Tory MP and march him into the Government lobby. Astonishing.

Coffrey.

Apparently Chris Bryant has photos.

JRM on Sky News now.

Here is one

What is he saying, piggy?

It's just a shit show isn't it?
Lack of discipline and people being bullies :(
Yet we are meant to still believe in them!
Unbelievable isn't it?

Blaming some junior person for the confidence mess.

His manhandling was 'reassurance'. And the confusion needed a 'further conversation'.

How awfully useful that Labour MPs have phone footage. It's against etiquette but will exonerate him so can he have it please?

Chief whip and deputy chief whip both resigned after fracking vote shambles

The 'sort of conversation one has between adults and professionals'.

Ermmm... not in my workplace!

A 'female' 'affectionately patted somebody on the back and this, I am sure, is not bullying'.

Reports say Wendy Morton was fired by Liz Truss in the division lobby.

31 voted yes. 9 abstained.
I think.

Absolutely extraordinary interview.

Charles Walker MP summing up his thoughts and reflecting a lot of mine.

Do watch it if you can.

He's on BBC 24 now.

He's furious, probably more angry than Drakeford was yesterday.

Wow. I'm liking that guy, shame he's planning to leave!

Thanks @Notonthestairs, it really is.

I just can’t quite believe that after BJ these people don’t understand the importance of not putting a foot wrong (openly at least!). They’re all so dense.

Fucking hell

I appreciate politics is a messy business. You don't want to know how sausages and laws are made etc etc blah.

But this has gone beyond normal parameters.

I read that Labour is all ready to shame MPs voting for it with some adverts(?)

Charles Walker on BBC was immense. I can honestly see a GE this year now: the anger and contempt that government ministers will be met with now will be overwhelming I think. JRM can f**k of with his arrogance when talking to journalists going forward

Jesus that's scary @Fladdermus !

Course Gove was in A Stab in the Dark topical comedy show in the early 90s with David Baddiel amongst others.

I'd like to thank the Tories for giving us all a little frisson of being Italian this evening (except for the nice weather and nice food stuff, but we can't have everything).

If the allegations about behaviour of the whips are true, this should be a police matter.
