Rishi Sunak appointed Gavin Williamson despite having been told of serious allegations about his conduct and continued to express full confidence in him right until the bitter end.

It’s a damning reflection of the appalling judgement of this weak Prime Minister.

Nice one leftists, you've made his position untenable and now I've got Gavin Williamson sleeping on my sofa. I bloody hate it when i'm reaching for a Hobnob and I find a tarantula in my Tupperware.

Very disappointing that so many people aren’t using Gavin Williamson’s proper title. It should be Disgraced Former Cabinet Minister Sir Gavin Williamson.

But who on earth will do whatever the fuck Gavin Williamson was doing, now that Gavin Williamson has gone? That’s what’s going to keep me awake tonight.

There was one last – slightly NSFW – message for Williamson from one of our favourite politicians.

Gavin Williamson, don’t think you’re safe. I’m coming for your knighthood, you idiotic, bullying piece of shit.
