      And so Grayling descends back to the career grave he came from.

      Good.
      Good news about Grayling but when one of your key ministers cannot be trusted, i.e. going back on his agreement to support the candidate, what are you meant to do? An omnishambles!!!

        I doubt even Cummings would be arrogant enough to try that.
        Recall by the local constituency followed by a by-election would work as well. Depends how popular he is with the local membership.

                Er, would someone like to point out that Lewis isn't a minister?

                And neither is Grayling.

                      Obviously there is something in the report otherwise you wouldn't have Raab suddenly saying something now: UK says Russia sought to interfere in 2019 election by leaking documents online | UK news | The Guardian

                      Johnson only wanted Grayling because he could then take orders from Cummings and redact most of it....
                      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
