Many expect him to appoint someone else as the caretaker, but given he's not once done what he's meant to he'd need to be forced to do so. Which the Tories might well do to try and disassociate themselves with him so we vote them back in at the General Election as a new leader means everything is immediately forgiven.

PatrickMahomes posted... Can I get a tl;dr? My first post ITT was 164 and it's up to the 200s now and I don't wanna read that many postsThe immediate cause is that an MP resigned from his position as Whip a week or so ago after a series of allegations of sexual assault. Johnson was accused of having known about these allegations, but also having ignored or covered them up to keep that MP in the government as an ally. Arguably, though, the real cause might be that the Tories recently lost two by-elections with historically huge margin swings. It's a really bad look for Johnson and the Tories, and the resignations after the Pincher scandal are just people finding a convenient excuse to offload themselves from a government already going down in flames. That's just my interpretation as an American outsider, at least. --- http://i.imgur.com/VeNBg.gif http://i.imgur.com/gd5jC8q.gif http://i.imgur.com/PKIy7.gif http://i.imgur.com/3p29JqP.gif ...

Will be interesting to see if the party force Johnson out earlier. Starmer has said that if they don't he will introduce a formal vote of no confidence in the government, which would could well trigger a full GE unless all the people who have spent the last days clamouring for Johnson to go vote that he should stay as PM for now (which, mad as it sounds, isn't necessarily unlikely). Only... Starmer and Raynor may need to step down depending on if they get fined by the police (which we will probably come out soon), so we could have both parties having a leadership contest while also campaigning in a General Election. Would be carnage, haha. --- http://i.imgur.com/6eF0W.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!
