to be a bit gutted that Sajid Javid has resigned

[Matchingcollarandcuffs]

I am by no means a Tory and am not particulary a fan of Sajid either but not only does it smell of rats leaving a sinking ship butt also who on earth is left to take that brief?

Anyone with half a brain cell (so Nadine could still be in with a shout) won't take it so they have more credibility for when Boris finally goes and they hopefully get suggestions with at least decency and a moral compass

I’m hoping it’s the beginning of the end and this is where the tories get voted out

Voted out in what way?

on another thread it said Rishi s has gone too A leadership race coming soon maybe

Blimey, that's a big one.

Replacement will be very interesting. We'll learn a bit about conscience, it's one thing not resigning, but to accept a post offered by this PM in current circumstances?

And if you can't fill your Cabinet can you stay as PM?

And now Rishi too . . .

I’ve read Rishi is gone as well but haven’t seen proof yet. Not good for them.

Are you sure that wasn't a case of mistaken identity/casual racism? I can't find anything and that would surely be big news?

The rats are fleeing the sinking ship.

I also thought Nadine might be next health secretary!

But with Sunak resigning too, could be another election. Good news in some ways, but I don't really want Nicola S getting her "mandate for independence" via a referendum. Mixed feelings.

Via a General Election, not a referendum!

Both announced as breaking news

This must be co-ordinated surely - who's next? Come on the Trussmeister!

This has to be the end of Boris?

Yes Sunak has gone too, no racism to be seen 🙄

On the BBC website. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-politics-62048657

No, it's true. The Independant has the Sunak resignation as breaking news.

Then there must surely be a leadership contest by morning?

yes they have both gone. Their letters of resignation are on the BBC website

The house of cards begins to fall. The question is will it take out Boris?

At last some Tories showing a tiny bit of moral compass.

Wow.

Nah, self interest and self preservation only. Hopefully will still do the trick!

Beginning of the end. Thank Christ.

Sunsk and Jarvis both gone - breaking news on the BBC

Surely to god this is the end for our clown of a PM 🙏🏻

It's the people you don't really want resigning that are going!

Sunak and Javid

I suspect this is part of a plan to bring Johnson down
