I think folk like that have an eye on 2025 when they will be looking for work and realised under Johnson they were doing their prospects no good ....... unfortunately for them the damage has already been done. Some of them will see themselves as a sort of Ken Clarke type character who for years to come will have credibility for years to come and who will be called out for their sage words about future things in politics on QT and Newsnight whereas in reality they will at best be offered a place on things like the Last Leg to be mocked.
 
It was reported in November that it was a change of policy and ministers were not always going to be made available.
The senior ministers only appear on specific matters now.

Under two now. Very latest it can be held is January 24th, 2025.

Given that it is increasingly looking unlikely that things will be turning around by then, I suspect that, unless something major happens, they will stick it out to the last day. After all, they know they might not be holding the reins for a long time thereafter. Enjoy the ride.

The English voting public will vote them in again, to be sure, but not at the next General Election.

Yes, more vandalism is still to be done.

Some things will improve by the election, and they'll be hoping that short term memory gives them a benefit to at least get close.

There just isn’t the money to do anything radical to improve conditions, so it will just be another two years of sticking plasters over society’s gaping wounds and the media continuing to report a succession of individual gaffes and infelicities.

Yes, and vandalism of important things that Labour won't be able to fix, either for money reasons or just the sheer difficulty.
 
Sir Rod Stewart has called in to a live Sky News phone-in offering to donate money for medical scans after hearing stories from people about treatment ordeals on the NHS.

The singer said it was "ridiculous" that people were having to wait long periods to get essential scans and treatment.

He told Sky News: "I personally have been a Tory for a long time but I think this government should stand down now and give the Labour Party a go, this is heartbreaking.

"In all my years in this country I've never seen it so bad... change the bloody government."
 
I know they're both 'independents' now, but this could be comedy gold:

"Andrew Bridgen is threatening to sue fellow MP Matt Hancock after the former health secretary accused him on Twitter of "anti-semitic, anti-vax, anti-scientific conspiracy theories".
A letter sent on his behalf is claiming £100,000 in libel damages."
