Mine is Matt Hancock so is there any point in me bothering? He's too busy carrying on with his mistress anyway.

Could be more pointless.

Mine is Michael Fabricant.

'Very long faces' on supporters of Boris Johnson

BBC Newsnight's political editor Nicholas Watt says supporters of Boris Johnson are looking downbeat, and there's intense anger, too.
Watt reports that one ally of the PM said his colleagues were "lying snakes" while another strong supporter of Johnson said he could "throttle" those MPs who "want to hand our country to a coalition of Labour, the SNP and the Liberal Democrats".

MPs don't really represent their electorate do they. If they did BJ would have been gone a while ago!

It has gone very very quiet inside

The result of the ballot is due at 21:00 BST.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson will be informed of the result shortly before it is announced.
The whole process is being overseen by Sir Graham Brady, who chairs the 1922 Committee and who told the prime minister yesterday that he would face this vote.
