And rumours are that no Tory is willing to replace him.
Fuck off, Tomlinson would be up that like a priest up a choirboy's cassock.

No Scottish Tory is probably the caveat - appointing a rest of UK MP to the Scotland office would be a bit embarassing. Been done before though.

And now its seems "Honest Dom" actually edited the blog post he referred to yesterday.  He said he warned of corona virus last year in a blog, it seems he didn't reference Corona then but he edited the blog in April this year to include Coronavirus. 

Please - for the good of everyone, just go!

Meanwhile in Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon has just unveiled a functioning Test, Trace and Isolate system, properly resourced and staffed which is ready in time for the easing of some of the lockdown restrictions. Not a huge fan of either Sturgeon or the SNP, but just a reminder of what half-competence looks like.

Hancock has now said, after being asked, that he would consider fines being reviewed for people that were caught travelling due to childcare needs.

So, they are having to consider retroactively changing the rules because the PM's advisor went for a jolly.

Out of everything that has been said and done over the past couple of days, nothing makes it clearer that he patently DID break not just the lockdown rules that everyone else was expected to follow, but also the law. No respect for the truth, no respect for the rule of law.

The co-ordinated lies aren’t working (according to YouGov it’s actually increased since yesterday)

Hancock was a right knob on this evenings briefing a combination of sitting on the fence, arse licking and couldn't handle the ITN news journalist question so quickly cut him off

Hancock is over-promoted, just like IDS & Hague years before.  Someone who's found himself in a top job due to a combination of luck & circumstance...the circumstance, in this case, being the hollowing out of the Tory party talent pool by Brexit.  Non-advocates were purged from the party at the end of last year by Boris Johnson, leaving a much thinner pool of Brexit advocates to fill the top jobs.

Hancock is backbench fodder, thrust in to the front line and now stunned & confused, blinking in the headlights.  He isn't up to it.  He won't be there long.

Easy to lead when you don’t really need to worry about the financial side. I imagine that if she’s gets her way and a second referendum they probably will vote to leave. Can’t see their free tuition fees and what not lasting long as not sure where their money will come from, they certainly won’t be keeping all the north see oil reserves.

As for the Barnet formula, who knows.
