Baroness Altman speaking on Sky News says.
The life peer did add that the vote of no confidence - in which around 40% of Conservative MPs voted to oust Mr Johnson - was a "serious blow" to the Johnson regime.
She said: "For the sake of the country and the party, a lot of people do feel that he needs to make the decision himself to stand down and let somebody else take this forward because he has upset so much of the public."
They’ve even got nasty 5Cers and poltroons with their fingers on the pulse in the HoL. Who knew?
Reds under the beds I tell you, reds under the beds!

YMB, //And what does Sir Kier and Angie have to say, anyone know?//
I don't know what they've said but this is what a rail union leader says:
//Sir Keir Starmer is “not on the side of workers”, the head of a major rail union has said, as he suggested that other unions are considering their affiliation to Labour.//

The Department of Transport is to replace Network Rail with a new organisation RailTrack2.*
* RailTrack was the private company running the railways after it was privatised. Unfortunately, it wasn”t very good and there were lots of fatal accidents. Things got so bad, the Government had to (in effect) re-nationalise it. And safety improved over night.

The problem the Labour Party has with the RMT can be found in the union's "rulebook" under item 4 - Objects, paragraph (b):
"to work for the supersession of the capitalist system by a socialistic order of society;"
Should the Labour Party openly support an organisation whose objective (or "object" as they prefer to call it).is the suppression of the capitalist system (from which many Labour supporters gain a tidy living) it may cost them quite a few votes. Mind you, whether many Labour supporters know that the RMT has such an objective in its sights is questionable. Any of them reading this do now.
