Little bit of Column A and a little bit of Column B. He can't be the one who wields the knife if he wants the leadership.

It's the former more than the latter but both

May's gone for the softest Brexit approach possible and he's labelled himself as Mr. Brexit so the 2 just simply aren't compatible.

I genuinely don't think May will last the end of the week now, 2 hardline Brexiteers gone

has there been a worse foreign secretary, or similar role, in the history of politics?

Labour MP comes out of the briefing. “Most surreal meeting ever. They are presenting a deal which is collapsing in front of our eyes. The projector doesn’t work. All anyone is talking about is Boris. It’s like the f**king Thick of It.”


All you can hear from outside the room where Labour MPs are having their Brexit briefing is raucous laughter


LOLLOL

I don't think Boris will get it now too many gaffs as Foreign Secretary. Last time was his chance until Gove stabbed him in the back.

The man that time forgot ;Jacob Rees-Mogg is now well ahead of him as the Brexit candidate.

Is Boris not seen as a fool and a liability in his own party? Trump and Johnson does make for a good cabaret double show, ones named after a sh*te the other a penis

Rumours a vote of no confidence has been called.

TM is at the 1922 committee right now - 48 signatures from MPs needed to call the vote

They were right to walk. The UK voted to leave.

They still voted to leave. 

Irish people are going to vote for Fianna Fail based on a fairy tale like.

Jeremy 'C**t' Hunt the new Foreign Secretary 


He's not Michael Gove (or Boris Johnson for that matter) so I suppose that's a plus

The latest YouGov poll had them on 5%, from a sample of 1669. I guess that is good as things get for them these days. Their race is well and truly run.

Donald Trump told Theresa May she should sue the EU rather than negotiate, she has told the BBC.
