Not another one???

It seems the scumbag 'nasty party' government are haemoraging ministers faster than they can be replaced. It last night's vote on yet another series of amendments to Brexit Bill, the scumbag government only narrowly avoided a defeat and led to yet another minister's resignation.

How many more resignations will there be before an election is called???

Hi

They have resigned as Ministers, not from the Conservative Whip.

The maths remain the same.

Yes, and some labour MPs voted with the government!

In reality this Brexit business would tear any party apart, and that goes for labour perhaps more than the Tories, as most Labour constituencies voted out but most of their MPs wanted to remain. They must thank the gods daily for their good fortune not to be in government at the moment...

How terrible, someone resigned his ministerial position on a point of principle

'Uncle Joe' wouldn't have put up with dissenters would he, a good beating or being sent to the gulag would have deterred more dissenters.

Did you miss this one then? Too intent on getting your odious message out perhaps?
