That's it. The electorate has made its mind up about Boris Johnson. The Conservatives have lost the last 5 electoral contests. Those were 4 by-elections and the Local Authority elections.

There is now an irony. Boris Johnson ignores widely held conventional morals, he changes rules and laws that do not suit him. The irony is that although the rules of the 1922 Committee state that he cannot be subjected to another Vote Of Confidence for almost a year, that does not suit them and they may well change those rules to allow an earlier Vote Of Confidence. That would be very naughty, changing the rules whilst the game is in progress, ironic indeed, foul play, but who gives a f­uck in the overall context of Boris Johnson's tsunami of foul play.

I say Carry On Boris, the captain of the ToryTanic who is steering it at full speed towards the iceberg.
