No indication in the link blurb however at the time of posting it states that Johnson gives ambiguous answer to the question of a snap election.
In poker terms he’d be going all in…..but with a pair at best.

Bit quiet on the Whip story today Togo?
The Starmer shadow minister quitting didn’t even register on the BBC main site as far as I can tell?

And why would the Labour man’s departure register with the good old BBC? He resigned for political reasons so the less said the better. :o)

Where were you this morning, Fatticus. On a picket line?
There's a horse running in the 3.30@Newbury you'll like.
It could even belong to you.

Lol, why would I be on a picket line? Are you as daft as the rest that believe just because I want Johnson removed that I’m automatically a Labour supporter?
Foolish in the extreme.
You’ll be slinging the usual ‘5C lefty’ rubbish next like the other Boris fanboy.

Absolutely. Better to resign over a matter of morals than sexual assault I suppose?
The last thing the Tories need is another scandal like that. Oh wait…..!

From Sky News.
Even the disgraced former MP isn’t happy over the double standards in his party.

'Come on, let's be fair': Tory sacked for watching porn in parliament furious over failure to sack MP for 'drunken groping'
Former Tory MP Neil Parish, who quit in May after being caught watching porn in parliament, has been speaking and he is not happy - accusing the party of "double standards".
When his case unfolded, Mr Parish had the Tory whip withdrawn relatively quickly after his misconduct came to light.
Speaking to LBC's Andy Ballantyne about Chris Pincher's resignation, he said the Conservatives should withdraw the party whip.
"There cannot be double standards," he said. "My belief is that Christopher Pincher has things to be answered for.

He’s certainly got a point.
