That's it - the useless fuck has agreed to go

Link to tweet

Tweet -"BREAKING: Boris Johnson is resigning"

EDIT TO ADD: the bad news...

Looks like we're stuck with the pustulent bellend until October?!?

There must be some solution, preferably GE?

I bet it will be Liz Truss. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. One unprincipled 'dumb blonde' replaced by another.

There are worse possibilities; save us from Priti Patel or Jacob Rees Mogg!

I don't expect a GE soon; the Tories in parliament don't want to risk losing their seats, especially after the Tiverton and Wakefield by-elections.
