I've just seen that on the BBC website and wasn't sure what to think.
Why has Ms Nokes, who has been MP for Romsey since 2010, taken so long to make a complaint ? And Ms Rea ?

Maybe because they were scared of repercussions to their careers?

Yes, probably. Maybe the nets are closing in now and it's time for everyone to speak up for maximum effect.

Maybe some start to plot the demise of Boris himself?

Remember, when someone is fully behind you they are best placed to stab you in the back.

I think he's become too much of a liability for the cons, I can't see him lasting much longer - he doesn't like conflict and wants to be popular, and he's not particularly popular at the moment and he's got an awful lot of conflict to deal with, especially with his own mps.

Certainly has - telling them they are full-time MPs and no second jobs is going to go down well!

Is there anyone currently in the Tory party capable of being a half-reasonable (and generally not corrupt) PM?
