Hmm. I'll try and break this down for the non-UK audience. British Politics 101 incoming.

TL;DR - BoJo leaving has nothing to do with his trans comments.

BJ has resigned as leader of the Conservative Party. He will stay on as prime minister until the Conservative Party elects a new leader. The exact timeline of this will be decided by what's known as the 1922 Committee, but will almost certainly be completed by the time 'conference season' rolls around in October. It is unlikely that the new leader (who will automatically become prime minister) will call a general election, but the Labour Party (the largest party in opposition) have said that they will propose a vote of no confidence in the government, which, if enough MPs vote in favour of it, would automatically trigger a general election.

BJ resigned because his leadership became unstable after more than 50 MPs resigned from ministerial posts and other government positions, including the chancellor Rishi Sunak (in practice the chancellor is the number 2 position in the cabinet after the prime minister), and the health secretary, Sajid Javid.

Why did they resign?

• Chris Pincher - On June 29th Chris Pincher MP, deputy chief whip of the Conservative Party (a 'whip' is a member of the party that basically tells the other MPs which way they should vote when votes are called) got drunk and groped two men in a private member's club. This led to a slew of other allegations against him which Boris claimed to be unaware of, but it later transpired that he had been aware, but had appointed him as deputy chief whip anyway.

• 'Partygate' - Both Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak were fined earlier this year for breaking the lockdown rules that they themselves devised and enforced. They had attended several parties at Downing Street during the periods when the UK was in lockdown, and later tried to squirm out of responsibility. 'Partygate' has become a big part of the media circus in the country for some time now.

• Cost of living crisis - Public opinion has turned very much against the government in recent months since the cost of living in the UK has risen so much so quickly. Household energy bills, food and fuel are now significantly more expensive than they were just a few months ago, and there will be further price rises again in the autumn. How much of this is down to mismanagement by the government and how much is down to economic factors outside their control I am not qualified to say.

And finally

• Running out of ideas - Boris was elected on the back of the promise to 'get Brexit done'. Beyond this, the Conservative Party didn't really have any concrete policy goals or objectives, and while they have sort of positioned themselves as the party of being 'anti-woke', their messaging has been mixed and they have not presented any kind of united front against wokedom. Penny Mordaunt, a contender in the Conservative leadership race, has previously stated in the house of commons that TWAW, TWAM etc. and has since reflected that that will seriously damage her leadership prospects.

So what will the future hold for British politics and trans dogma? That depends entirely on who wins the Tory leadership race; whether there will be a general election, and who will win the election if so.
