Of course it'll fit; you just need a bigger hammer.

It gets worse...

Liz Truss’ chief whip and deputy chief whip have resigned in chaotic scenes at Westminster tonight.

Wendy Morton and Craig Whittaker quit just after a Labour vote on fracking, which allegedly saw senior Tory MPs physically manhandling their colleagues to get them to vote with the party line.

It comes after Suella Braverman was sacked as home secretary earlier today.

So did Braverman resign or was she fired?

I somehow can't see Truss surviving the night!

Apparently, they have now both (whips) 'unresigned'! - Ref ITV News at 10.

What a bl**dy fiasco!
