Boris Johnson lost the latest of six votes in as many days (twice on an election he claims not to want).
Even May's tenure wasn't this shambolic!
The two votes on the election mean that a poll cannot be mounted before mid-Novemeber at the earliest.
In other news the Speaker, John Bercow, announced that he'll be standing down on October 31st. Thus spiking the plans of Andrea Leadsome et al to break convention & stand a candidate against him.
It also means that this Parliament will elect his successor. In convention the Speakership alternates between parties so should go to a Labour MP but the Downing Street Despots have shown that they don't give a flying fuck about either convention or obeying the law.
