I smell the hand of Tory grandees in these resignations. I suspect they were getting fed up with the way the government was being run in their name. It is going to be interested to see what happens next. How long will Gove last now?

There’s something odd going on. The ‘leaving through the front door of number 10 with a cardboard box’ looked very staged

Why would you be bothered which door he left through, you should be just highly delighted that he has now gone.

I don’t think there was anything odd going on, I just think Boris felt he owed him a prioritised disembarkation through the front door.

I hope a long time Frank as he would be right at the top of my list for the next PM....not discounting the fact that he has the ability to slide under closed doors.
