Dorries has a majority of 24,000, that will take some overturning!

If she had a smaller majority I'd have said she was resigning to embarrass Sunak with a likely by election loss, but with such a big majority?

Stanley Johnson won’t be getting his knighthood either.

I don't care who is on the list - it's a disgrace that Johnson gets to have an 'Honours' list, considering he didn't serve a full term and resigned in disgrace.

As for the a future Truss list... !

So Nadine has gone off in a huff! I thought Mr Sunak had approved the entire list - but has he, and did the Daily Mail guy get a peerage? Interesting.

She was.

Oh I see. Was she on the list then? Any reason she was removed. She was always a fan girl of Boris.

I should imagine she wants to force a by election in revenge for being removed from Johnson’s resignation honours list.

You beat me to it T-bird!

Michael Fabricant ( he of the blonde wig) is to be knighted and so is Jacob Rees Mogg. I’m shocked and does anyone know why Nadine Dorries has resigned as an MP with immediate effect?
