| 1627818567172227078 | I do enjoy @nicholaswatt updates on #Newsnight โBrexiteer Toryโs have at least one minister on resignation watch!โ Over NI protocol deal.

| 1627949511636123649 | @BBCNewsnight @nicholaswatt He needs to push forward and ignore them - the ERG have thrown their weight around too long and DUP need to find out they do not control NI Even better has to be Braverman on resignation watch as she breached collective Cabinet responsibility - gives a genuine reason to get rid | 9 |
| 1627824730613981184 | @pearceyp78 @nicholaswatt Let them resign. It would be a blessed relief. Give the country a #GeneralElectionNow | 8 |
| 1627932356039348227 | @BBCNewsnight @JamieBrysonCPNI @nicholaswatt Marvellous! So. If this deal doesnโt happen then itโs a trade war and sanctions. Britain will be absolutely obliterated. Then a GE. Labour landslide and ERG/DUP will have zero power to threaten/blackmail. And the actual British ppl will be demanding that NI if offloaded asap๐ | 5 |
| 1627883975740989441 | @BBCNewsnight @nicholaswatt They all need to go. They donโt give a toss about NI or their hard brexit would never have been a consideration. It would be a delicious thing if it was shafted NI that finally brought them down. #GeneralElectionNow | 4 |
| 1627956428630622209 | @BBCNewsnight @TheStephenRalph @nicholaswatt Good. Let them all resign and in a rare display of integrity, refuse any severance package and gold plated pension. | 3 |
| 1627975779316293632 | @BBCNewsnight @nicholaswatt This is the beginning of the push by the ERG to eject Sunak and get their puppet back into No 10.Johnson does not give a damn about the people of Northern Ireland. He condemned us to Brexit to gain power, and now heโs risking the peace process to regain it. | 3 |
| 1627820880066752512 | Initially I gave this some thought, then I remembered how risible the @Conservatives are, so my concluding thought is thisโฆ I, and millions of others really donโt care about a poxy Brexiteer Tory threatening (via @nicholaswatt) to throw their toys out of the pram. #Newsnight https://t.co/zniEXvxo4W | 3 |
| 1627819790432710659 | @BBCNewsnight @lifeastrin @nicholaswatt That's nice, the rest of the cabinet are presumably on incompetence watch. | 3 |

| 1627828562194493441 | @BBCNewsnight @nicholaswatt #GeneralElectionNow The Tories are a shambles and an extremist narrow minded cult | 39 |
| 1627918621220405248 | @BBCNewsnight @colinth7 @nicholaswatt Why donโt they do the nation a favour and all resign? | 34 |
| 1627811025390010369 | @BBCNewsnight @nicholaswatt So they are effectively threatening to quit if there are improvements to the Protocol deal? | 34 |
| 1627810910491246595 | @BBCNewsnight @nicholaswatt Does anyone care ? Why did you interview Ian Paisley of all people ?? What joy he gets in saying a foreign power interfering in NI/UK while Mr Watt conveniently forgets to remind him NI has a nationalist first minister elect and the majority voted against Brexit - weak interview | 33 |
