What is so laughable now is Gove now stating that he has "come to the conclusion that Boris cannot provide the leadership or build the team for the task ahead". LOL, well that friendship has not lasted long then!

My money would now be on Theresa May to sort this mess out.

I think May has been one our better Home Secretaries. But having said that our last and first lady pm done more damage to British industry then what Hitler ever did. I would like to see David Davis as p.m. Always talks sense.

Just think how many women are now leaders of political parties in the UK. I'd like to see the Conservative and Labour parties both elect women leaders and USA elect a woman president. What with Angela Merkel in Germany we will take over the world!

Ms May is the front runner. Mr Gove just no respect from other party members.

What happened to Mr Johnson. Allegedly strong enough to convince the UK to BREXIT. Not strong enough to sort the mess out!!
Now he should be ashamed.
Not a single bad word from BREXIT camp. Regret??

If you mean the Brexit campaign team I imagine like the Remain team they disbanded and went back to their day jobs

So
Mr Johnson is without employment and Mr Farage is soon to be like wise as UKIP is no longer needed and his position in Europe is redundant.
Laurel and Hardy are back in the building. Would we like to find them something to do!!

What the numpties will be saying next 'Do you want chips with that?'

We were all told we would be so poorly led by Nigel Farage if we voted Brexit when, as I think I pointed out Waz, he would fade away and not figure in any meaningful way... yet you would have us believe we were voting for him... tune changed now has it?

Boris is certainly not unemployed, he's still an MP and writes for The Telegraph where reputedly he earns £5000 a column. Nigel Garage is still an MP and will carry on collecting his salary until ejected from the European Parliament one way or another, please get your facts right Was.

David,
Who then is your vote for PM and COE?
Boris certainly has no stomach for a fight and is not able to deal with the mess he has led you and me and the UK into.
Mr Farage could apply for CEO in a possible new government but I suspect he will be sent packing. Who would even entertain the man for anything given the hoodwinking he has sold to BREXIT camp?

LONDON (Reuters) - Around 20 startup banks and financial firms have reaffirmed plans to invest a total of up to 500 million pounds to open in Britain, consulting firm PwC said on Friday.
These investment plans will be a boost for Britain's financial services sector, beset by rumours of job cuts and firms moving overseas in the aftermath of Britain's vote to leave the European Union and potentially surrender some of its access to EU markets.
The banks are a mixture of UK, European, and non-EU businesses and have already committed 200 million pounds, PwC said, with total funding of up to half a billion pounds featured in their business plans.
Stephen Morse, financial services partner at PwC, said the around 20 clients investing in Britain were not only mainstream banks, mortgage lenders and asset managers.
"There are a range of new technology-enabled banks, fintech businesses, commercial banks and even niche investment banks who have identified gaps in the market in part caused by big global banks having pulled out of some businesses over the past few years," he said.
Since the Brexit vote last week, banks, including Goldman Sachs (N:GS) and Morgan Stanley (N:MS), have denied rumours they are already moving thousands of jobs out of Britain as a result of the referendum.
