    Johnson Resigns BBC slow to announce

    That's why I listen to the radio and use twitter.

    BBC is very slow.......

      He is resigning as leader of the Tory party but not as PM.

      Apparently him and Carrie have no where big enough for them all to live.

        I think the normal process is to vote for a new head of party and then there is a change of PM

            Isn't this more of an "announcement of intention to resign"?

              He's currently writing both statements and will choose one at the podium.

                It's a better resolution than simply walking away. We still have a PM in position, the plotting and backbiting will transfer to the leadership candidates so he can get on with the other problems we face, and it can all be done in a reasonable timescale.

                Only question now is who's next. A poor selection of mostly chancers and yesterday's men but I would look to Nawhadi or Lord Frost myself - which probably guarantees it won't be either!

                  Who is this Nawhadi character?

                  Can't be Frost, realistically, because he's not an MP and there is probably not a pathway to him becoming one soon enough (for it to be sustainable). It has been way more than a hundred years since someone governed from the Lords.

                    Early morning brain fog. I meant Zawahi...

                    Frost might have a way in. There's one MP at least who may have to resign, perhaps two.
