And more pertinently the Telegragh have turned, that's game over for Bojo. |  |

A disapproving editorial, or full on front page “time to go” turn? |  |

The former, but given they didn't make it a front page story yesterday, the tables have turned and a number of columnists have stuck the knife in. |  |

Good. Just need the Mail to properly stick the knife in now and that should be it. |  |

The mail haven't been very warm to Johnson either, and for a little longer |  |

Times Radio was all over him this morning too. All those in the media that would normally back a tory PM are turning on him. I wonder which tory they would rather have now. |  |

And Ant and Dec. Once they turn on you, your done. Maybe they could put Johnson in the castle, but like in a dungeon, for good and throw away the key. |  |

Do you reckon? Or they've found their sacrificial lamb in Stratton and he'll continue to brush it aside on the basis that he wasn't there and didn't know anything about it (as unrealistic as that sounds). 'These pesky staffers getting up to no good...'. I've no idea if this will be enough. I'd have thought it would need a sustained period of pressure from the Tory-friendly media to turn people's minds. It took them a couple of decades to dismantle our EU membership afterall. I hope I'm wrong. I'm finding it increasingly frustrating that they face no consequences for their lawlessness and ineptitude, and show a complete disregard for anything other than their own campaigning all the time. |  |

It's literally every day. Pretty much every time he speaks he lies or deceives, even at the dispatch box (I've no idea why he's allowed to get away with it). |  |

There’s a lot of backbench revolt but Johnson’s in quite a unique position. In normal circumstances the people most likely to support a leadership challenge are those with the smallest majorities afraid of losing their jobs, but most of those are the new intake in the North/Midlands. Despite Johnson’s failures, a lot of them owe him their seats. Is someone like Gove or Truss likely to have the same appeal? That might be what keeps him on for a bit longer. If they lose the North Shropshire by-election next week that could be a game-changer. |  |

I will NEVER refer to him by his first (or to be precise second) name because it sounds affectionate and cuddly. |  | |  |

His basic level of knowledge (shocking for anyone in any political position at any level) seems to be "Someone's sorting it out, I don't need to know the details.." |  |
