Another former minister told the BBC: "Johnson is toast... if you were the chief whip looking at him you'd say he's not fit to do any other jobs in government, you wouldn't make him a junior minister, he doesn't work hard enough."
And a senior Tory MP said "there is a lot of scepticism around that there is anyone ready to take the reins. That buys Boris time. But he shouldn't confuse that with another chance."
It goes on :
One senior backbench Conservative MP told the BBC they received more than 200 angry emails about the parties, with only five messages in support of the prime minister.
"Many colleagues now believe Boris won't be leader at next general election... for many of us this feels terminal," the MP said.
A Midlands Tory MP, who won his seat in a former Labour constituency in the 2019 election, said: "The inbox is bad, really bad."
One feels the vultures are circling now
He cannot drag his party any deeper into the mire
Every single day is a damage limitation exercise

Tobias Elwood is hardly an obscure backbencher. He came to prominence first for many for delivering first aid during the Westminster knife attack and has been interviewed frequently.
As for the Guido Fawkes cabinet loyalty live blog I’ve come across a few sad thing in my time but that’s both sad and odd.
Maybe the PM is nervously refreshing the page as we speak :-)
