Boris stands down as MP with immediate effect

[sunnydaytoday0]

Just breaking now on BBC.

Same day as Nadine.

Didn’t he kick Churchill’s grandson out of the Tory party at one point? Nice thing to do to the family of your hero…

It's just one less job to worry about I suppose

👇

Shouldn't mps have some sort of work contract so that people like Nadine
Dorrie's can't sod off to paid TV gigs whilst claiming MPs pay

@Nowwheresmykeys because there's an awful lot of naive people out there who think it's like Love Island and you vote for the person who is 'a bit of a laugh' and of course another whole bunch who basically benefit from the Tory's light touch on the very wealthy

What a DAY!

Details of Trump's indictment are sooooooo bad!! Like WOAH bad!!

Rishi refuses Nadine a peerage so she strops off, a couple of hours after saying she wouldn't ever resign as she didn't want to put her constituents through a by-election, on camera!

Now Bozo has fecked off after enquiry finds he mislead parliament!!

It's like CHRISTMAS 💃💃💃

Trumpian.

He didn't get what he wanted and now he's having a tantrum.

@ShandaLear you’ve put me off my Friday night wine 🤮

Well, I'm disappointed. I was looking forward to Johnson getting a Portillo style reckoning next general election. This way, it's his choice to go and he can carry on making believe the public love him. Still, there will probably be Mogg's downfall to enjoy on election night, I suppose.

Can't believe he thinks that highlighting the fact that only 17 million people in a country of 66 million (approx) voted for Brexit.
That only highlights what an undemocratic act of national harm Brexit was and how few people in the Uk really wanted Brexit. A very small fraction, Boris, and not really something you should be highlighting as part of your legacy.

A tantrump 😊

Good riddance.

His petulant resignation letter says it all really...right out of the Trump playbook!

How the mighty are fallen lol! Trump and Bojo.

Yep…my faith in human nature and the British public was destroyed by having that chancer voted in as PM !

Yes and let’s not forget that he was found by the Parliamentary standards committee that he had LIED to Parliament.

Im so glad he’s gone but he’s got away with making such a mess of this country. The disaster of Brexit and Party’s in lockdown will be what history remembers him for.

I don't think there are any safe Tory seats right now.

Isn't he Sir Smuggy now?

First couple of dominoes

hang out the bunting! He was a terrible PM, lazy, mendacious and narcissistic, only in it for himself. I’m assuming the committee looking at Partygate was going to suspend him which would trigger a by election, which he would probably then lose as on top of being a crap PM he’s reportedly never in his constituency. Good riddance and please don’t come back Boris!

What a useless piece of shit. He'll have his eye on a better seat than Uxbridge now.

I need to make sure I save a day of leave so I can stay up the night after the next GE and do terrible things to my liver. Though a shot for every Tory seat lost is not on the cards because I'd end up dead.

Unfortunately, yes, but I don't think he's leaving his constituency? I will be even more disappointed if I'm wrong.

You win the internet !

Oh bring on Election night! Soon , with any luck
Only waited for 13 years ..
line up the shots. The alcoholic kind

Tantrump ! Lol
