It might've been planned, there were certainly enough "if u plot u hate the queen" interviews, but also getting booed by a crowd of demented royalists might easily have been the last straw for Tories intending to keep their jobs and social standing.

The funniest timeline involves a new General Election, if only because Labour can't afford a General Election. I'd love to read centrists' articles about how, actually, running a General Election campaign on no money is really the pinnacle of political purity and why losing to possibly the most hated governing party in over 30 years is a good thing.

After all the build up I didn't really notice much of the jubilee celebrations locally. The biggest story was a huge rave on friday that kept everyone awake all night. I was chuckling to myself reading the updates. 7.30 am and the music is getting LOUDER.

fuctifino posted:But what would happen if Boris simply ignored the rules, refused to step down, leave No.10 or call a GE? Because that's what I think he's going to do. He doesn't have any say in it. Once he's no longer party leader, the Tories send their new chosen leader to request Her Majesty's permission to serve and he/she becomes PM. If Boris then refuses to leave Downing Street, there's an armed officer on duty inside at all times who will escort the intruder from the premises. Summary: Boris will step down, or he will leave Number 10 either in handcuffs or a body bag. By the way, the civil service don't need to change the locks on Number 10 when Boris is kicked out because Boris doesn't have the keys - in fact, there aren't any keys. The doors can only be opened from the inside.

What happens if everyone is out? Yeah there's probably a protocol that there should always be one person inside at all times, just like there's usually a protocol that you shouldn't use the lift when the fire alarm goes off or the fire exit unless it goes off, but what happens in reality if everyone is out?

Guavanaut posted:What happens if everyone is out? There's always a police officer on duty inside, whose job it is to open the door for approved visitors. If Downing Street caught fire then they'd leave, of course, but if Downing Street catches fire there are bigger problems than having to take a battering ram to the front door afterwards. Mostly, though, the door is unlocked - there just isn't a handle to open it from the outside. I believe that there are a bunch of security locks, but they're generally left off the catch unless an unexpected visitor is approaching. So if somehow everyone accidentally found themselves outside, you could probably get back in with a quick shoulder charge.

In five years time there's going to be a comedy about how everyone got locked out in the back yard during one of his piss ups except for the cleaning lady who he just spoke to like poo poo so she doesn't open the door and becomes PM due to an obscure law dating from the 1700s.

Thanks for the reassurance that he can't barricade himself in No.10 and refuse to leave.... at least for long. In a way, I'm hoping that he wins the vote of confidence, as the longer he's PM, the more damage he does to the Tories, but I'm also looking forward to watching him handle being sacked too.... so it's a win-win either way. If he loses the vote of confidence, does the deputy PM (Is it still loving Raab?) become stand-in PM until there's a Tory leadership vote?

No, Boris stays in the job until the party (or a party) announces his successor. This is unfortunately a case where the FTPA works against us - I can easily see Boris calling a GE in response to a VONC either out of spite or in the hope that they'd drop the motion, and the Tories would be crushed either way. But as is a GE requires the support of Parliament, and the Tories won't want to fight one at the same time as a leadership contest.
