Liz Truss meeting the Chairman of the '22 Committee

In the words of Dionne Warwick ? say a little prayer ?

I am GrannyGravy, I am.

Apparently, Liz Truss requested the meeting.

??????

There was a woman being interviewed this morning - I didn't catch her name. She had worked in Thatcher's office. She was very interesting and at the end she said one of the problems was that they have so few good people to choose from because Johnson threw out all who wouldn't agree with him on Brexit.

I think she is right.

Lot of them are still MPs DaisyAnne, on the backbenches. Jeremy Hunt being one of them.

Come on, Brady, tell her she’s got to go.

There’s going to be a statement in 15 minutes….

She needs to go and a general election called. Surely even the tories realise this.

Just seen - Downing Street Statement at 1.30!

There’s going to be a statement in 15 minutes….

Blimey MayBee blink and you miss something but bored this morning so have been watching the news and Twitter

The lectern’s out.

Watching live on BBC news channel. The podium is out ready for her appearance.

Blimey timed that well. Had a couple of hours walking the dog, and just got back in for lunch.

Cross posts merlotgran and lectern was the word I was looking for ?

It does seem that Liz Truss is going to resign now.A good decision I think.

They just called it a podium on BBBNews!

Good riddance

Gone

On radio 2 just now, broke into Jeremy Vine's music. She is resigning.

Not before time. We need a general election.

Another one bites the dust!

Still no apology from her for the chaos she’s caused…

She has resigned... that's great but what on earth will be coming next. They won't call a general election and despite all of this circus will hold on to power, again with no regard for the people's wellbeing, I'm quite sure. I'd love to be proven wrong.

Pray for us all!!

No, Philippa, no GE. A week for MPs to find another leader.
