So what was Truss screaming about for long enough to miss last night's vote?

The Mail claims the screaming was a set too between Lizzy and Sue Ella

There seems to be a lot of activity around Liz Truss's back doors at the moment.

Hunt not standing, doubtless happy with being Chancellor. If Suella wins, he won't keep that.

Members aren't going to be happy if Johnson is kept off the ballot. But surely he will be. MPs had enough of protecting his lying before, and the mandate argument is bollocks.

And how will they do this in a week?

They’ll set the nominations threshold too high for Johnson to achieve, but within reach of Sunak and/or Mordaunt.

They can do that, but going to be epic kicking off about it among Johnson's media mates, MP fans and the members.

Could the Reform Party pick a few MPs off if that happens?
