In 2014 Johnson was talking up the EU. He is a pathological liar. Good riddance.

Funnily enough, Boris was anti-Brexit as well, but just lied to become PM.

He pretended to become holier than the Pope - perhaps because he thought he was the Pope.

I'll sum up Boris Johnson in one word: Liar!

Whilst I understand that Stephen doesn't support Boris Johnson but I will not forgive the Tory government for electing him as Leader. The public didn't know what he was like, but Tory MPs did know. So why did they vote for him ? Simply to cling on to power, not for the good of our country.

Only thing I disagree about is the public had every opportunity to see what Boris was, but chose not to... This also explains why doubtful Tories still supported/didn't complain that loudly, which does not exempt them from responsibility or blame!

Hammond is one of the very few honourable Conservatives . Sad that his Party has destroyed the U.K. through its Brexit madness.

This is one of those ‘nowaday rare’ Tories, having honesty, integrity & a sense of responsibility.

Imagine a Tory wakening up and saying " Who can I help today? "

Lol! Rishi Sunak "integrity"?! The man tells outright lies at the dispatch box almost every week.

Stephen Hammond was my MP for about 3 years. Excellent MP and principled man, unlike so many of them. He would take the metro regularly like the rest of us and could often be seen in Wimbledon proper or Wimbledon Park running errands and always happy to stop for a chat with anyone who recognised him. I did so a couple of times.

Wow - for a Tory, what a thoroughly nice guy! I hate to say it - I like him!

Shows the mark of a man who didn’t have the courage to tell someone they were going to be sacked.

Looking forward to Paul Kohler taking over in Wimbledon. He will be a fantastic MP for the Lib Dems.

Obviously a very good and dissent man. Knows his stuff. Gentleman.

How anyone can proudly say that they're Tory to the core given the state of the country just beggars belief.

new respect for Stephen that he stood up to AELTC enough that they didn't invite their local MP to last year's tournament! and also, well done for trying to find something less monstrous than Wimbledon's current proposal for enclosing a shed load of open space!!

I don't care why he is leaving. Go back to his rolling acres and pontificate or get a job on late-night GB News or Talk TV. Just go and go now with a General Election.

'deluded'. spot on.

is Stephen Hammond the first MP to say that the would NOT encourage friends to do the job these days?

Did he predict : Mass unemployment ? Drastic food shortages ? Troops in streets of Northern Ireland ? Collapse of City of London as financial hub ? That's Zero correct out of four. ? Maybe that's why he got sacked...?

Surely having the Wombles as constituents must be the highlight. But no mention of them.

He weren't wrong.

Anti-Brexit means anti-Britain.

500 Acres? Let's start a gofundme for him.

Look at hammonds history, i am afraid he will do anything to hold on to his seat or make himself a bob or 2. (led by donkeys expose for eg.) Not the worst MP, but the bar is extraodinarily low at this time

Don't blame Boris Johnson. This 'alliance' has ruined his own party. The people voted and they should have done as the people wanted. We'd have been in a better position now if they had. May was a disaster, neither one nor tother.

I suppose it depends what your job was doesn't it? If you were a mechanic or a baker that was unfair. But if you worked for a business who's very existence depended on trading within the EU, then that's not a surprise.

There’s no way to reconcile UK self-government with European federation. We can try to be polite about our differences, but we can’t reconcile them. It’s better to be upfront and honest about it. I still remember the battle John Major fought to get the UK Parliament to approve the Maastricht Treaty. In the end, he threatened his own party that he would call a General Election and deliberately set out to lose it if they didn’t pass the Bill. It passed with a majority of three. Later, every household in the UK was sent a government leaflet about the Treaty. It explained that the reason the Prime Minister had been prepared to destroy his own Party to bring this vital Treaty into law was because - wait for it - the Treaty didn’t change anything at all. That’s right. The leaflet insisted that Maastricht had not moved any powers up to the European level, and it didn’t represent any forward movement towards a Federal Europe whatsoever. That’s why it was so desperately important to pass it. I would rather hear Guy Verhofstadt talk honestly of wanting to build a European Empire stretching from Luhansk to the Azores, from the Arctic Circle to the Canary Islands, than have any more John Major style mendacious dissimulation.

Stephen Hammond is a weasel. He's also a Liberal Democrat. But, like many Liberals, he doesn't have the integrity to actually stand as one.

No mention if his 6 London apartments then no!
