Is this going to be the end of the Conservatives?

Boris Johnson to Resign

 A day is a long time in politics as they say, and so it proved to be. Prime Minister one day, on the scrapheap the next. 

Now - Priti Patel for PM - please.

Prorogation

People have found a new word, prorogation. Those in the UK trying to derail Brexit are calling the Prime Minister's proroguing of parliament a coup. Err, except far from it. To prorogue parliament means to discontinue a session. It is not a coup as parliament is not being overthrown, power is not being seized illegally. The bluster from those complaining is quite incredible but also very funny. The PM has every right to govern, especially when you consider he intends exercising the will of the people which was the result of the referendum held in 2016, and that was to leave the EU. Get over it and get on with it.
