Neil Gaiman answers the question 'Is she still PM?'
No, that was ages ago. Now we've got Sunak to come, then Boris again, then a random Tory MP who is slipped the runes by Boris before he vanishes off the to Seychelles, then a tub of Lard as Prime Minister before we get a General Election. https://t.co/ksljOsQEQs

Follow-up thread:
Right. Seems I need to do an update to this based on my messages this morning.
— John Bull (@garius) October 20, 2022
Because it seems we are NOT done with the chaos (non-Miliband). As several MPs are saying they've been told this WAS a confidence vote. /1 https://t.co/nJinGwr5jP
