For those who don’t read Twitter I thought I would share some tweets,

Beth Rigby. “Hear from an MP that the PM’s gone to tearoom after PMQ’s.”

Ian Dunt “Oh F* she’s in the tearoom phase. Usually that comes right at the end. It’s like the double-dose morphine of political strategies.”

Duncan Bell “Hiding in a fridge can’t be far off.”

James Fox-McGowan “Genuinely feel she won’t see out October. But who’s next?”

Kahn Johnson “I think we all get a go. It’ll be like National Service.”

I cant put it anywhere to be fair , my phone is not playing ball.

Oh, sorry, Galaxy.

Perhaps we should start a new thread on N & P, 'Emergency Puppies to cheer up the Politics Nerds'. grin

I was about to say I didnt mean to derail. It's still the same point. I would probably prefer any labrador to be PM over the current situation.

I know people used to doubt Johnsons intellect but I didnt really buy in to that. Its possible to be bright and have political skills and still be a moral vacuum.

She read PPE at Oxford. I’m stunned

My DP did a similar degree (not at Oxford at StA) and refers to it as a 'dinner party degree' as that's where it's useful.

Whose turn is it to be next PM? I’m down for next Wednesday? Anyone for Monday?

They’ve told me I can do it between 3pm and 6pm next Tuesday. I’m just after Jamie Vardy who himself follows that orange man off the antiques show
