Oh how the mighty do fall. It wasn’t too long ago that there was 10 years of Boris as PM. Now? Well it is far from certain what his new role is other than destroy the current iteration of a Conservative government (not before time). Then what?

Make a lot of money and then spend even more money than you earnt and be back in the same financial mess – probably;

Start messing around with other women – he does have form;

More children, not with his wife – again…

Once more be PM? Now this is the most doubtful, especially if a future Labour government decides to bring England in line with all the other countries of the Union and introduce proportional representation. Even if this doesn’t happen the way back for Boris would require hard work, commitment, cunning and most of all bravery – he has demonstrated a total lack of any of these things in his political career so far -why should he change now?

Instead I suspect he’ll write his columns for the Daily Mail until they sack him – I believe that this is what has happened at most of the other papers he has written for in the past. He will still fly the world making speeches but the money here will also start to dry up and he will then be chased by creditors, ex wives etc. Finally, one day he may be seen in some pub somewhere in the cotswolds decrying his luck to anyone who listens.

Only time will tell.
