Tory peer Michelle Mone to take leave of absence from Lords

Wonder where this leaves the frail duo of Hancock and Gove, who claimed, in trying to swerve any responsibility, that they were bullied into awarding the contracts by Mone.
They will be fine. Health Minister has tonight said in the Commons that it was Civil Servants who decided where contracts would be awarded, not Ministers. So that's ok then (y)

I watched his response to Rayner. Total hypocrisy spent 10 minutes claiming how wonderful they were. Then sliding into how hard they worked and it was an honour to work alongside them..but it was there decision alone who got what, effectively slinging them under the bus
 
We all know nothing will happen to her or any of the other Tory crime family - she will keep her money and live happily ever after in absolute luxury
 
So Sunak in the Commons says "I am absolutely shocked at the revelations about Mone" and yet as Chancellor of the Exchequer he would have authorised the very payments to her newly formed Company. This needs investigating immediately Gove is up to his neck in this for one and there will be more involved. It stinks.

I watched PMQ's and that was a real WTF moment. Sunak isn't very good. He is further away than even Johnson in actually answering any of Starmers questions. I wonder if he is terrified of answering questions as he may end up in a parliamentary hole as did Johnson.

I was referring specifically to Johnson denying there were any parties, thinking he could get away with the lie. The tories are digging a deep electoral hole Their only way back, I think, is to dump the cabinet and move back to more traditional tory ground, something the ERG wouldn't allow without a vote of no confidence. Now there is a hole they keep just digging.

Lovely timing from Starmer, a bit to and fro going on about something else and then he suddenly slips in the “How come £29M ended up in her account bank, and sat down.
Sunak’s WTF just happened moment.

Surely at some point, the party will be split into two, I'd guess that Reform is already the start of it. The mad brexiteer, ideology based, uber-equivocators will move to Reform and take a sizeable number of dunderheads with them. It'll shear 30% of the Tory vote. The remaining middle-ground, non-ideological Tories will be left with a seriously damaged party which will take a decade or more to restore.
