As McGregor might say the Queen will do nuttin. As a ceremonial Head of State she does as directed by Government protocol. The Queen acting outside her ceremonial  constitutional role (for a country that famously has no written constitution) is unheard of in modern times & is a bit of a taboo subject.

Looks like today's the day this finally consumed Theresa, her resilience was impressive at least..if nothing else. Cant imagine the torys will vote for another who tries to save them for themselves. I'd say Gove or Raab are the most likely candidates. MPs wont let boris near it but well see. Another GE is on the cards this year

She promised her party that they could have their cake and eat it too, which could never happen and she’s paying the price.  She told them the UK will leave the CU but there will be no hard border, and DUP were assured there will be no Irish Sea border - if you leave the CU there has to be a border somewhere, simple.  She hadn’t the nerve to face down one side or the other and now they are all eating her.

I know but that was the public vote. This will be an internal vote in the Tory party. Would he command enough support?

On the Peston show the other night there's real deep division in the Tory party over Boris it seems.

Rees Mogg is a fan, but you always get the notion that he's far too smart for his own good that lad and that he thinks he'll be able to pull Boris's strings in the background.
Johnny Mercer has fallen head on into the Boris cult and thinks he'll be great. Doesn't come across as the sharpest tool in the box.
The other Tory on was Dominic Greer and he couldn't hide his disdain for Boris.

The Tories are couped and Labour are that inept they cannot take advantage.
