#4Nothing short of being dragged out by his toes will dislodge Boris. I've long since given up on him ever being done.

Still plenty of rats left - Dorries, Patel, Gove, Rees-Mogg, Truss are all apparently staying put.
And BoJo is not going without being physically tossed out the door of number 10. No amount of crumbling government or scandal will shame him, he’s obviously unable to have that emotion.

#8So, as I understand it, the conservative party cannot have another no confidence vote for 11 more months since Boris won one last month.
So the only way to remove him of he won't quit is a House of Commons vote of no confidence.
But that, by convention, means a general election.
And a lot of the conservatives that would have to vote for it would almost certainly lose their seats since they only won them narrowly and the polls show they're down.
So unless MPs put aside their own interests and act in the national and democratic good, we'll likely be stuck with Boris?

The committee that can call the no-confidence vote can also change the rules as they like, so they can remove the "you have the confidence for 1 year" rule. And according to the Guardian many of Boris' enemies will be elected into this committee.
