/'The game is up': First Tory publicly says PM should go
Crispin Blunt, the Conservative MP for Reigate, has become the first to publicly state Prime Minister Liz Truss should step aside, saying: "The game is up".
He told Channel 4's Andrew Neil Show that he does not think Ms Truss, who has been in Number 10 for little over a month, can survive the current crisis.
"I think the game is up and it's now a question as to how the succession is managed," he said.
Asked how the party will get rid of her, he said: "If there is such a weight of opinion in the parliamentary party that we have to have a change, then it will be effected.
"Exactly how it is done and exactly under what mechanism... but it will happen."/
Oh dear. How sad. Never mind.

//Sunak dealt the fatal blow to Boris and I believe that’s why he lost the leadership race. How do you ever trust a traitor?//
As I’ve asked before, explain how Sunak dealt the fatal blow? Just because he was the first to resign? We’re not counting the other 59 then?
Don’t forget, Sunak didn’t even deliver a damning resignation speech in Parliament, but Javed certainly did, so how is Sunak the traitor?
Explain how?
Johnson delivered the final blow himself with his lies, they all realised it with the Pincher scandal.

It’s behind a pay wall.
Care to c&p it?
Bet the word traitor isn’t in there.
Give us your own reasons(you’re allowed to think for yourself on this one) as to why you believe Sunak is the traitor and not the other 59?
Is if his colour? Or because he had the most high profile job?
You tell us.
Here’s his take on it.

//The direct hits on Johnson’s lack of competence//
/So they replaced him with someone less competent! eejits/
That’s the Conservative Party membership for you. What a bunch of numpty’s eh?
I mean, what sort of fool would’ve voted for Truss anyway?
Answers on a postcard to AB Towers. PMSL.

Sunak was top dog? Really? I was led to believe that was Johnson, after all the WhatsApp group was named Save Big Dog wasn’t it?
As for racism, the Conservative Party is rife with it, that’s why they chose Truss and not Sunak, but you already knew that.
After all, your hero Boris has had to apologise enough for it previously.
Any chance of that c&p from the pay walled site?
I’m surmising you subscribe?
Or did you look for the first headline to suit your agenda on a search engine and chose that link?
No need to answer actually, you’ve pretty much confirmed it.

When I bumped into Sajid Javid this evening just before 6pm, I said to him, “If anyone’s got the balls to quit, it’s you, isn’t it?” The Health Secretary simply smiled. Within minutes, as he posted on Twitter his withering resignation letter, it was clear why.
Rishi Sunak’s own decision to quit shortly afterwards felt like a co-ordinated move, with two of the most senior figures in the Government dealing a body blow to Boris Johnson’s premiership. It’s unclear if there will be a further domino effect within Cabinet or among other ministers, but the Prime Minister looks like a dead man walking.
Javid was the man seen as most likely to jump first precisely because he had done it before. It was in February 2020, when Johnson bowed to pressure from Dominic Cummings to give No 10 control over Treasury advisers, that the then Chancellor resigned in protest. At the time, Johnson begged his colleague to stay. “Please don’t do this to me, Saj,” he said. Javid still resigned on a point of principle – the right to appoint his own team.
Now, Sunak, the man who was thrust into the limelight as the Covid pandemic hit, has himself quit in exasperation at both the PM’s approach to standards in public life and his tendency to mislead when caught out. It’s a double resignation that is even more of a double whammy than the twin by-election defeats of a week ago.
Intriguingly, both Javid and Sunak are seen as ambitious for the top job themselves. Though disloyalty is frowned on usually, they may both get “first mover” advantage in a future leadership race, with credit for taking a stand. One MP told me this week that they were always sent a text on their birthday by Javid, who was also assiduous in sending Christmas cards to huge numbers of colleagues.
