Andrew Marr's instant analysis of Boris Johnson's resignation | LBC

[@steveosborne2297]

He doesn’t care about the Conservative party just in the same way that he doesn’t care about the country . All Boris Johnson has ever cared about himself

And his cronies...

[@andyetheridge]

check out sheep farm studios, they did a podcast on BoJo and his family, definitely an eye opener

[@tonywilson8681]

Steve Osborne, I agree 100%. he didnt care about leaving the EU either, that was just his opportunity to further his own ambitions. As far as Im concerned he should be dragged out of Downing Street immediately. He was happy to play fast and loose with rules and laws so the same could reasinably be applied to him. And then he should be expelled from the Conservative party as he did with the decent ones who opposed his own ego driven agenda.

[@erincaitlin1655]

Caretaker manager till August ? They have re shuffled their players numerous times and their manager has woefully failed . It's time the chairman ( the British public ) relegated this team to where they belong . Sunday league 👌

O’Brien, “What weapons are left in the arsenal of the 1922 committee?” Marr; “Well, frankly it’s a collection of rather old musty muskets and damp powder” Comedy gold!

The nuclear option would be a vote of no confidence in the house, something the opposition are already threatening.

[@robcraven2626]

Winning a vote of no confidence brings down the government, causing a General Election doesn't it? I can't see many Tory mp's voting for that, not least because fighting an election with BJ in charge is precisely what they're trying to avoid...
