Shame he did not have thec b@!!s to sack her.
And it was Holac who binned her HoL nomination. Johnson knew about it and sh@t out of telling her. He then asked Fishi for a favour which was refused, because the action would have been highly irregular.
Another one bites the dust. Marvelous.

On a side note we have had both labour and lib dem reps at our house in the last week. No sign of the tory canvassers yet, oh I live in central beds.
Had an argument with the lib dem candidate today. He tried to defend the lib dem record whilst in coalition with the tories. Not a vitrioloic argument, but we certainly didn'y see eye to eye.
Looking forward to a visit from the tory rep/candidate.
Sack her from what, exactly. All Sunak could have done was withdrawn the party whip. Dorries would still have been an mp.

My mate is senior civil servant at DCMS. He had to deal with her quite a lot. As you'd expect thick as mince and frequently went "missing" (i.e. officials didn't know where she was when she was supposed to turning up to vote etc) and just ignored her briefings.
Think her only saving grace was that she wasn't a bully, was respectful enough to staff.
He claims (and I'm not sure how true it is, was maybe exaggerating a bit but probably not as much as you'd hope) that her office spent most the time trying to stop her putting stuff on twitter without it being vetted first.
Allegedly used to go and hide in the toilet to send tweets.

That's exactly how a leader sacks an MP from the party isn't it?

I've a friend that is a senior civil servant and they say that The Thick of It reflected the idiocy and the absurbity of daily life in a department but feels they toned it down as otherwise people wouldn't believe it.

Announces standing down six months ago, few days after MP pay for stepping down doubles she confirms it.
Coincidence?

Not sure eggo. Withdrawing the whip isn't explusion from the party. To eject them from the party, I don't know what the tory mechanism is. Whether Sunak could even do that without support from others in the party.

She's got one thing right and that is that we've had a zombie government for fooking ages. At a time when we need leadership, a plan, some structure. We're failing miserably.
I hope these chunts are out for 15 years at least

Her book about Johnson is out at the end of September. With the advance, the book launching just before the Tory conference, and timing her resignation now, I don't think the £10 to £20K extra will even register with her. She could make £500K+ from the book ..... and the rest .....

I thought it was in reference to an MP that loses their seat at an election rather than stepping down but either way its gone from 2 to 4 months salary and so it's an extra £14k.
If she was that desperate for cash she'd hang on until the next election, sometime in the next 15 months, & pocket the salary & extra 14k.
