  • he's going to quit? does this mean he'll be out of a job? oh no! how will he pay his rent without a steady source of income?

    Not really, he'll stand as an independent against 3HR but take the Tory whip on everything else. Not much will change.

    It'll be interesting to see if Justine Greening quits (she almost certainly won't).

    I've read he'll force a by-election.

    Yes, that's exactly what I said. He'll resign as an MP and stand in the subsequent by-election as an independent candidate on an anti-3HR ticket.

    But, if elected even as an independent, he'll only oppose the Tories on 3HR and take the Tory whip on everything else.
