In addition I do wonder if Greening and zac might resign, whilst not a disaster it will leave awkward questions.
No loss if they did. Greening will probably cling to her cabinet post (and the kudos, perks and trappings) like grim death, they always do, no one resigns on principle any more. As for Goldsmith, he has the reputation as a damned good constituency MP, but apart from his constituents, he will not be missed.
"if Greening and zac might resign, whilst not a disaster it will leave awkward questions"
worse than that - the Tories might lose thei seats and cut their majority from 12 to 8......... Harold Wilson approved the Humber Bridge at a cost of £ 150 million (in 1966) to save a seat in a by-election .....................
How do you work that out Harry? Do you
really expect Putney to fall to the Labour party and Richmond to the Libdems? Am about to die laughing!
Even if this happened, it's easily solved by a general election within the next month, unfortunately, just like Gordon in 2007,Theresa has bottled it.
If LHR gets the go ahead you can kiss goodby to the northern powerhouse and HS2.
because.......................?
Sounds more like abandoning his constituents.................unless he stands in the by-election as an independent and wins.
