Introduction

Even borris johnson's longest standing supporters now think he might be on the way out. His admission that he attended a downing street garden party has proved the final straw for politicians. M ps complain they've had enough and don't think he can recover. When does he go? And who exactly should replace him? Until now, ministers had been talking op the main local elections as a crunch point. Now several mps think they cannot wait so long for a new leader. The damage keeps accumulating.
