Truss is being touted as a candidate for leader. All the accessories who have propped Johnson up and excused his lies should be ineligible. Javid's effort this morning was laughable as are all the other "the country wants us to get on with the job" blusters.
I had no time at all for Jeremy Hunt but he is positively statesmanlike in comparison. He very cleverly (or perhaps honourably, to put the best shine on it) turned down the defence job when he lost to Johnson and distanced himself, and has rehabilitated himself somewhat in regard to his mismanagement of the NHS, admitting it was not funded properly when he was in charge.
I hope the last 3 years been a lesson to the parliamentary party, and they will think twice before picking another demagogue.
