She's quit the cabinet and the party.

Is resigning the whip the same as quitting the party?

Papers are saying it is.

This is fantastic.

God knows who replaces Rudd in the Cabinet.

Looking at the ministers of state. McVey to step up to her old job? Don't think anybody's replaced Jo Johnson yet.

Yea and nay.

Yea, because I'm deriving a perverse pleasure from watching the Tories tear themselves to shreds.

Those polls are still with Johnson delivering Brexit. Once that doesn't happen, he gets a knock back.

I reckon Jez gets a lot of those Green votes in a general election where they might make a difference.

Plus both Labour and the Tories are set to receive another shellacking from the SNP in Scotland. I don't think it'll ever feel right saying this, but in 2019 such a scenario actually hurts the Tories more than Labour.
