Taken from Twitter: "Police and Crime Bill includes a new offence of damage to memorials and statues carrying a maximum penalty of 10 years. Maximum sentence for a Section 47 aka ABH is 5 years. So people who harm statues could end up in prison twice as long as people who harm people." Cos statues can't run away!!

Telegraph turned against Boris too? That story could be the final straw for several MPs. And that picture will, in my mind, be one of the iconic images of this whole period.

That reference to the Queen could be the final nail in the coffin JRM will be rolled out to call the Queen a lightweight figure. I see one of the people involved, James Slack, went off to the Sun, explains why they aren't covering this story.

The beauty of it is that whichever way the inquiry goes, its going to look horrendous for him. If it confirms what we know, then bad for him, if they try to excuse it, bad for him. Everyone knows the truth, it's like watching a maggot on a hook. Absolute Dam poetry.

Everyone knows the truth, it's like watching a maggot on a hook. Absolute Dam poetry. The story has moved on after the Telegraph article anyway I suspect and yes, things will be bad for him either way. Maybe it's just him wanting to be exonerated officially before he leaves. Andrew Bridgen confirmed on Newsnight he's written his letter to the 1922 Committee. Many see him as a barometer of backbench opinion. Rumours in the press Rishi Sunak will announce energy price reductions shortly, must be an election happening soon. What I'm not quite getting is why so many of the Cabinet are being so open in their support, Sunak aside.

It serves them to try and get him off the hook and know its over for them anyway if they can't.

Someone's position is untenable, but this is The Sun so who knows.

She has a point. The liberal news cycle is 24hrs, why is the media persisting?
