Since no MPs have gone on the record, all eyes and ears are on Sir Graham Brady of the 1922 Committee, who became the focus in the run-up to Boris Johnson’s demise.
This could be a very brief premiership indeed. Could the 1922 force another leadership election if enough letters of no confidence arrive?

Do you think at this point Tory MPs just have letters of no confidence saved as a template on their desktops?

Letters of no confidence after 11 days as Prime Minister must be some sort of (deeply undesirable) record?
