    But what else?
    Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.

      Bloomberg apparently reported it first.

      And the invitations have been sent out.

        They need to find somewhere to live.

        Remember he's had 2 children in Downing Street and got a divorce, so needs different accommodation to what he started with.

        He took 3 weeks to leave the Foreign Office as he had no accommodation.

          They've got the house that they can't rent out - would that not do?

            Grant Shapps is considering running. The Rail unions are up in arms about it, so that gains him a few points in my eyes but he's on about -500 points from his hopeless Covid performance.

              Fair enough. Quite an interesting situation really, in fact the whole scenario of gaining/losing office is one I find interesting. Many modern PMs can afford to keep a spare house but MPs can find themselves out of a job at an election and all that sort of thing.

              Seems like the event is planned for later in July and we surely won't have a new PM installed by then. Just let him use it, nobody else needs the place.

                No 10 wallpaper, drink with staff, appointing a minor bloke groper. All unimportant bollux in my view, however, it is clear that with so many in government and the general public who do not agree there is no possible alternative but to get shot of him.

                  It is bizarre that after everything, it's a bloke who gets a bit handsy when drunk who brought the whole house of cards tumbling. Straw that broke the camel's back, perhaps.

                    It would've been something or someone else. It's no coincidence that they didn't learn from Owen Paterson or Neil Parish. If not Chris Pincher, someone else, eventually. Or the Commons Privileges Committee. Or...

                    Boris wasn't capable of not lying or subverting or corrupting.

                      Yes I agree with this and the establishments are turning a blind eye to the villuny of another incumbent of 10 Downing Street who has the blood of hundreds of thousands on his hands.
