I can't say I really believe yet that Johnson will be defenestrated. Report, shmeport, the evidence is completely clear by now that his position's untenable, but that's not what decides whether he will go. After all that bluster about the letters to Graham Brady, nothing seems to have happened on that front. Johnson himself is an irrelevant power vacuum whose very weakness can do a lot of damage, but he is backed by some of the most powerful and most corrupt interests on the planet, and it's ultimately they who will decide. The Tory Party has completely sold itself out to them and holds very little power. Never mind that they are formally in power, they just dance to a tune that's played for them.
I very much hope to be proven wrong, although the other options for 'Prime Minister' are, of course, likewise rather unpleasant to contemplate.
