Tory MPs filed through the lobbies last night to vote confidence in the Government. MPs cancelled foreign trips, left their poorly relatives, and one MP was reportedly dragged into Parliament on the day that their mother died, just to keep this lame duck administration staggering on.
The motion of no confidence last night was never just about our law-breaking, Parliament-proroguing, office-abusing Prime Minister. It was always about this tawdry, toxic Government as a whole.
Every single MP on the Government benches who has stood by Boris Johnson, whilst he’s dissembled and denigrated his way through his term in office, is complicit in his offences – partying in Downing Street; rules changed to protect their mates; sexual harassment brushed under the carpet.
