Politicians hold their tongues on Johnson’s fate

The Government and opposition parties were last night tight-lipped on whether British prime minister Boris Johnson should resign in the aftermath of the UK supreme court’s ruling that he was wrong to slam parliament’s doors shut.

Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil, and Sinn Féin all backed off from predicting giving their predictions on what will happen next in the internal Brexit civil war, despite Fianna Fáil’s Brexit spokeswoman, Lisa Chambers, writing online that it “doesn’t get much worse” for Mr Johnson.
