Never mind the catalogue of his other failings. Boris Johnson receives a publicly funded salary as an MP to represent the constituents of Uxbridge and South Ruislip. And yet he has spent the last couple of weeks, while the Commons has been in session, on a holiday (his third in three months) in the Caribbean and in the US making obscene amounts of money giving a speech. Surely this utter dereliction of his duty towards his constituents, at a time when many of them will be dealing with potentially life-changing financial pressures, should disqualify him from holding any position of responsibility, least of all that of prime minister. It actually makes me cry with rage to imagine him back in Downing Street.

• Rishi Sunak has declared that he wants to “unite our party and deliver for our country”. Surely it must be obvious by now that there is no more chance of anyone uniting the Tory party than there is of Glasgow, Liverpool or Manchester uniting their respective cities behind a single football team.
