Suella Braverman has been fired as Home Secretary. Somehow this both strengthens and weakens the government…
1157
Always look on the bright side of life…

A universally unpopular entity, known for failures to deliver, dreadful value for money and a complete inability to get the job done. Not sure what he’s got against the Passport Office though. twitter.com/BBCNews/status…

Boris Johnson denies something.
Evidence emerges that proves he’s lying.
Tory MPs ignore it.
Today is literally Groundhog Day. twitter.com/Telegraph/stat…

Conservative Crime Commissioner campaigned last year to "Make Notts Safe" and promised to "reduce crime with action, not words". Today she’s been banned from driving for repeatedly making people unsafe by breaking the law. Remarkably she has yet to resign. twitter.com/BBCNews/status…

You’d have thought Tory MPs would have learned by now that taking on Marcus Rashford will end badly for them.

- There were no parties
- There were parties but I didn’t attend
- I did attend the parties but they followed the rules
- Wait for the Sue Gray report
- Sue Gray says they didn’t follow the rules but wait for the police investigation
- Ignore the police investigation

How did Boris Johnson lose his job as Prime Minister? Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly…

@POTUS Hey I just saw you

But here’s my handle

Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office. 15 year old tabby. Living with my fifth Prime Minister. Unofficial. A subpar odyssey.
