He'll soon be running out of people prepared to replace quitting ministers, given that >75% backbenchers voted 'no confidence.' I can't imagine there is a queue of backbenchers willing to join this government. If he can't field a full team then surely he has to go
Yes - fully agree with you. PMQs has certainly evolved from what it was originally intended to be and I'm sure there was a time when it was conducted in quite an honourable fashion, in keeping with the purpose. Now, it just seems to be the opportunity for a bit of badly delivered stand-up and...
But PMQs is just a bit of political theatre and has never been the forum where straight answers are given to straight questions. Rather than a mechanism for holding the government to account, its more a test of how good a parliamentarian the PM is and how effective the Leader of the Opposition...
“Today I have had meetings with ministers and others; later I shall be be having further such meetings. What? Oh - I have just been advised I don’t have any ministers left.”

Christ :lolol: ...the faces around that Cabinet table.
Looks like they are finally as utterly sick of the sound of his voice and the incoherent, vacuous jumble of meaningless words as the rest of us.
Ask anyone in the broadcasting industry and Steve Wright is a naturally gifted broadcaster with a passion for radio who has been attracting and retaining daily audiences of multple-millions for over 40 years.
Ask NSC and he is shit and always has been. :shrug:
Did you order the Festive Special? (Deep pan, crisp and even) *

Further allegations - on top of the ones published today - about Chris Pincher in The Sun tomorrow, with another man coming forward to say he was a recipient of inappropriate and unwanted sexual touching from Mr Pincher.
I watched it live on C4 and I’ve read all the comments about what a great race it was. But surely that was principally because a safety car was deployed 10 laps from the end, wiped out the leaders advantage and bunched the field up again? Without that it would have just been another fairly...
