Boris Johnson being dumped as Conservative leader is now a question of “when, not if”, according to senior Tory MP.
Tobias Ellwood told his party colleague to “stop drinking the Kool Aid” and prepare to jettison Johnson after many of them refused to go through the division lobby in support of the Prime Minister on Thursday.
Johnson, who is on a trade visit to India, had to abandon plans to kick out a Labour vote on referring him to a parliamentary inquiry over misleading the Commons after party managers faced a mutiny.
