After the mayhem in the House of Commons on Tuesday, which was also the day the Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, resigned, the revolt inside the British Conservative Party against the Prime Minister, Liz Truss, has become stronger.

A Labor-sponsored resolution on “fracking,” a method of extracting fossil fuels that the “Tories” vehemently opposed during the election campaign, received about 40 votes in favor or against.

Up until this morning on Thursday, seven deputies had publicly called for Truss to resign. According to Devon Gary Streeter, who wants to “avoid the carnage” in the upcoming elections, “Unfortunately, it seems that we have to change the leader.”

According to a survey released this week by the YouGov firm, Truss’ popularity is at minimum levels in the polls, with Labor enjoying a significant lead. But the “premier” has said she won’t step down, telling the House of Commons on Wednesday: “I am a fighter, not someone who leaves.”

Amid the confusion of the vote, various media outlets reported that the major leaders of the parliamentary group known as “tory” would be leaving. This has raised questions about their future in recent hours. According to the BBC, Downing Street has stated that both Wendy Morton, who is in charge of promoting party discipline, and Craig Whitaker, her deputy, “remain in their positions.”

For his part, Braverman cited a mistake in the handling of official information as the reason for his resignation, yet he also made oblique references to Truss while stressing the value of admitting mistakes and moving on without waiting for issues to be fixed “by the art of Magic.”
