- it's not a resignation lol

- Corbyn could probably sue him for libel

Rubbish.

I guess Osbourne was right and he will have managed to resign just in time to keep his dignity.

I would 100% trust a pile of Soviet water pumps to run the country before anyone in the conservative party tbh

What's funny about this is that there was at least one blue-tick journalist last night insisting that reliable sources had informed him Zahawi was there last night as one of Boris' supporters.

Just idiot hacks being run in circles by spin-doctors insisting, "The Stanleys are definitely fighting on the side of Richard of York, you guys, despite what you may have heard."

No people in the middle of giving birth would do a much better job at running the country than nearly anyone in parliament. There is at least going to be one human life other than their own they will care about, so

Boris staying on until the Autumn would mean he would have to reappoint a whole bunch of people who just told him loudly and publicly to gently caress off forever, or fine a bunch of saps who are happy to take a paycheck for about 2 months before probably being ostracised.

If he gives a public resignation speech I would be *shocked*.

Really hope he does stay on as PM for as long as possible though. I'm imagining a leadership contest over the summer hols constantly interrupted by multiple scandals per day

Yeah also who is actually going to be in government if he does stay on? A lot of people going to have to unresign 'for the good of the country'. Lol. Lmao.

LOL he's really is going to keep trying to just draw this out as long as possible isn't he? As long as it means the tories party keeps festering then good for him.

Also If he manages it are all those ministers just going to... unresign?
