No, two wrongs don't make a right, especially when those making moral judgements are confronted with the uncomfortable truth about some of their own decisions. Anyway, for me, it is not too dissimilar to the identikit line England players trotted out at a recent media day where they had clearly...

I see the participating players are coming in for some tough questioning about the morality of this from journalists. In this situation, they should employ the Frankie Boyle gambit: 'Feel free, by the way, to Tweet your outrage on a smart phone made by a 10-year old in China.'

That West Ham shirt looks like it was left to dry on a recently painted radiator ffs.

3 poached eggs on wholemeal toast and a w@nk *Obvs, that's a joke. I didn't have the eggs on toast.

Rodney Trotter & Cassandra? (Although I guess that was the whole point of casting that character? I never really 'got' OFAH to be honest; it always felt too much like watching an over-acted play).

Cement factory

Bantz, innit? :shrug:

Too right. I fancied a crack at standing for election as Pope last time around and lost my deposit ffs. :rant:

Yup. Someone like Peter Bone will get a peerage so they can **** off to the Lords and Johnson can have his seat in the Commons

I genuinely thought he might be a little more humble and contrite. I should have known better. I can see his bullish response to the vote coming back to bite him

Not having the confidence of 75% of non-pay roll colleagues feels like very dangerous territory

"Good news Boris." "Ah - we've nailed down 181 votes for tonight?" "No. Pickfords can do Tuesday."

'sake. I wondered what that missed call from you was about. I just assumed you wanted to borrow the frogman's outfit for another day.

Yup. Normally these type of "Dear Prime Minister" letters focus on policy differences, which happens. But these all tend to be about integrity, honour and principles - far harder to defend as it goes to the heart of the PMs character.

John Penrose MP, Johnson's Anti-corruption Champion at the Home Office, has just resigned his position, stating the Prime Minister has breached the Ministerial Code. Drip drip drip...

Thank god you've said that. It is a horrible document to read - and that is even before you get to the content.

Really? You should have said before. To be honest, I wasn't especially anticipating the jubilee with any degree of expectation or excitement but I just took it for what it was and ended up really enjoying the long weekend. I wasn't invited to any parties or events - but even so I enjoyed the...

If he really relished a Confidence vote to establish his authority, he could just call one, as John Major once did. He doesn't need to wait for a certain number of letters to be submitted, On that basis I think we can assume Johnson would rather this isn't happening tonight or at any other time.

I was reading something over the weekend that quite a few Tory MPs are deeply frustrated regarding the "build and fund 40 new hospitals over the next 10 years" pledge that Johnson made at the last election because when they enquire regarding progress it appears the process has yet to start. Its...

No. It is a secret ballot.
