Despite being the overwhelming favourite to be the next Tory Party leader and prime Minister, Boris Johnson seems determined to blow that opportunity. Tory Party members may not be especially moral or social conservative, but they won't like their Prime Minister throwing his toys out of the pram in 10 Downing Street.

Of course for Boris it will all be a merry jape; what's so wrong with having a domestic where your partner repeatedly orders you to "get off me" and "get out of my flat" and you refuse? So what if the neighbours recorded your altercation where Ms Symonds is heard saying Mr Johnson had ruined a sofa with red wine: "You just don't care for anything because you're spoilt. You have no care for money or anything."

Just the sort of leader the Tories and Great Britain needs right now. Of course the DUP rather like Jeremy Hunt because of his social conservatism and less duplicitous ways... Expect Jeremy to emphasise his family life and conservative voting record in the leadership campaign...
