I can see a thread-title change is upcoming - (and BTW, why does the thread title not come up in a search of Titles only??)

Boris Johnson: 'We've got to listen, we've got to learn'
Boris Johnson has said he will 'listen and learn' from today's by-election defeats.
The Prime Minister told a press conference in Rwanda: 'I'm not going to pretend these are brilliant results.
'We've got to listen, we've got to learn. But it wasn't that long ago, just over a year ago, that we won a spectacular by-election victory. When people are finding it tough they send messages to politicians and politicians have got to respond.'

‘The country would be better off’: senior Tories urge Boris Johnson to quit​

Ex-leader Michael Howard among Conservatives to call for resignation after byelection catastrophes.

Boris Johnson: ‘I genuinely, genuinely don’t think the way forward in British politics is to focus on issues of personalities.’


Conservative grandees are urging Boris Johnson to quit after a historic double byelection defeat, as rebellious MPs began plotting new ways to oust him.
The former Conservative leader Michael Howard was among those who demanded the prime minister stand down after the losses in Tiverton and Honiton and Wakefield which prompted the immediate resignation of the party’s co-chair, Oliver Dowden.

In his pointed resignation letter, widely regarded as a call to others to act, Dowden told the prime minister: “We cannot carry on with business as usual. Someone must take responsibility.”
 
Although, by-elections in the U.K., much like Canada, are often a blow to the incumbent party and don't mean much when the general election comes round. Still, the amount of baggage that BoJo is collecting is pretty monumental at this point.
 
A thread title change is clearly soon going to be needed. MAYBE NEXT TIME IT WILL BE SEARCHABLE!

Chancellor Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid quit Boris Johnson's cabinet amid a row over the handling of misconduct claims against ex-Deputy Chief Whip Chris Pincher. (Better known, apparently, as arse Pincher.)
