I’m now playing @JamesBlunt really loud to smoke him out…
1428
I’ve just checked the kitchen and there’s a week of supplies for a normal family. Johnson will have polished those off by breakfast, so if we block deliveries we’ll have him out by lunchtime tomorrow. #DowningStreetSiege #kitileaks

There are no levels to which this man won’t sink.

Go to bed everyone. I’ll let you know when Boris Johnson finishes sulking and is ready to put his big boy pants on and admit to you all that he’s finished.

The Attorney General has:
1. Called for Boris Johnson to resign
2. Said she’s running to replace him
3. Not resigned herself

Dear rest of the world:
We’re working through a few things here in the UK at the moment. Long story, but basically a midlife crisis. Give us a day or two and we’ll have it sorted and get back to drinking our tea.
Ta for caring

Time to clarify a few things:
1. I’m not “Boris Johnson’s cat”
2. Like all Prime Ministers, he’s only a temporary resident of Downing Street
3. I live here permanently. When he finally goes, I stay
4. Yes, it’s all very embarrassing but it will be over soon
1435
If Boris Johnson hasn’t resigned by 10am I will be forced to crap in his shoes. #DowningStreetSiege

All these resignations are highlighting just how many people are in the government, which will leave the average voter wondering what they’ve all been doing for the last couple of years…
1437
Fair to say it’ll be a few years before anyone can claim that the Conservatives are the natural party for stable government with a straight face. Johnson is scorching their reputation with every minute he refuses to bow to the inevitable. He was their choice.

Conservatives under Boris Johnson, sowing: “This is brilliant! Yes!”
Conservatives under Boris Johnson, reaping: “We don’t care for this at all.”

I’ve had to live with Boris Johnson for nearly three years. This bloke has lived next door for a day and is already calling for him to quit! twitter.com/nadhimzahawi/s…

Me sending out tweets during this crisis:

All good things come to an end… twitter.com/PippaCrerar/st…

That did the job. No need to thank me. twitter.com/Number10cat/st…

The government is in such a mess that the Twitter feed includes the announcement of TWO different Education secretaries within three tweets. This is bonkers.

“I am willing to serve as caretaker Prime Minister because that’s frankly less ridiculous than the idea of Boris Johnson hanging around a minute longer” #YesWeCat #LarryForPM

At least at the end Boris Johnson finally delivered a humble, coherent speech reflecting on his fail…
Nah, course not. Absolutely deluded drivel. He thinks he’s the victim.
If the Tories don’t get him out tonight they’re finished.
1449
Johnson’s team is briefing that they’ve filled a replacement cabinet. This is a lie, unless Rees-Mogg and Dorries are going to do 12 jobs each. Nobody is answering their calls, let alone saying yes. #kitileaks

Petition that all interviews with Conservative MPs should be accompanied by the “Benny Hill music” until this crisis is over
Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office. 15 year old tabby. Living with my fifth Prime Minister. Unofficial. A subpar odyssey.
