The news is worth watching for once!

Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid quit Boris Johnson's cabinet

To lose one cabinet may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose two looks like it might finally be the end of Boris??? Or at least the beginning of the end.

Of course, anyone replacing him won't be much of an improvement, but at least it might be a teeny tiny step in the right direction. (They can't replace him with Nadine Dorries or Priti Patel, surely.) Mind you, I have a feeling they'll need to crowbar him out...

ETA: Like so, except with Boris instead of Trump:

ETA2: This is also... apt. And very funny:

The Solicitor General has just gone too. And a few minnows - PPS-types who can see this is not a safe star to hitch their careers to.

Zahawi as Chancellor, though? I suppose he has lots of money. But I doubt he has the first idea about economics.

These times are way too bloody interesting, if you ask me.

Sadly the idea of a hologram Reagan here might have been roundly applauded in some quarters pre-2016 but now he is clearly too liberal for his old party.

Stuck his knife in Boris' back within seconds. Nice.

Oh yes. I wonder how bad it'll get before it gets better (for you and us)...

I loved the President's Show. They pretty much nailed it. It was awful and damned hilarious all at once!

I heard about the resignations. I mean, couldn't they have done this sooner?!?! Says the American ironically - as her country should have derailed the nonsense we are living through at the ballot box in 2015...

*HUGS*

So good. And such an accurate depiction of a meltdown...

Oh yeah, they were all rats fleeing a sinking ship. Zero integrity.

Look we are trying REALLY HARD to catch up.
