Is there an actual requirement for the PM to answer the PM Questions? Could Truss nominate Penny Mordaunt to answer all the questions, like she did for the Urgent PMQ a few days ago?

You can but unless you have a good reason (e.g. attending G7) it's seen as cowardace and a sign of political weakness.

Same as it ever was. Its that nobody called her out that makes me upset. Shes just allowed to keep being an ignorant racist moron without being challenged.

It's not really moving the goalposts as Truss currently has immunity to challenges. Brady is just telling Truss where things have to get to before he will change the rules to remove that immunity, and encouraging her to resign before that happens.

From an ofcom report from 2019 - https://www.ofcom.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0023/186413/Connected-Nations-2019-UK-final.pdf "Both EE and Three have 6 hours or more of back-up power at around 3% of their sites. EE has a further 4% of sites which can continue operating for five days or more during a power cut. The vast majority have no back-up power" "Vodafone and O2 use a shared network, with each providing around half the total sites used for UK coverage. Of the sites which Vodafone provides, which broadly speaking cover the west of England and Wales, around half have four hours of back-up power. The remaining Vodafone sites have between 1 and 2 hours. O2 protects its hub sites, which account for about 5% of its total sites, with 4 hours of back-up power. Most of its remaining sites have no protection, with an unspecified number of larger coverage sites having 10 minutes."

If anyone's curious about that bag of passports that was left on my front door yesterday I've spoken to a few embassies and am going to cycle round London dropping them off at various places today. Kind of ominously they're all passports for African women from various countries.

Didn't a fossil fuel exec say fracking in the uk was pointless. As someone described to me she's basically using this to assert her authority because if she doesn't have it, better to find out sooner rather than later. What is interesting is that because this is a three-line whip, no slips, means that Boris Johnson, who is reportedly in the Caribbean at the moment, will not be in the Conservative Party as of this evening.

Didn't a fossil fuel exec say fracking in the uk was pointless. In this case, whether fracking is good or bad is mostly irrelevant. This is just Truss forcing her party to poo poo (collapse the government and call a general election) or get off the pot (fall back in line). See exactly where their breaking point is, and which way they will break.

The actual fracking may be irrelevant, but it's still worth remembering that the Tories were elected on a manifesto that explicitly pledged fracking would remain banned.

Which does make this a much more stringent and dramatic test of loyalty, yes. Also, 'all slips withdrawn' means that you can't have someone else substitute for you if you're not present. This is particularly important because Boris Johnson is currently on holiday - if Truss manages to go ahead with this without her party defenestrating her in self-defence, she will have removed the whip from her most popular current leadership rival.
