That mystery noise many people heard on Friday night was the sound of Boris Johnson throwing his toys out of his pram after the former PM quit as an MP with immediate effect.
Johnson stormed off in a huff after an investigation into the Partygate scandal found he misled parliament and recommended a lengthy suspension from the House of Commons.
And he left with all the dignity and self-awareness that you would expect of the man, claiming there was a ‘witch-hunt under way, to take revenge for Brexit and ultimately to reverse the 2016 referendum result’.

But the best, and possibly the most NSFW response, came from the great Kathy Burke, on the same day that Nadine Dorries also quit Parliament and Donald Trump was indicted (again).
Oof.
Ooh, it’s a beautiful day for self serving, lying dickheads to feel like crap.
