Losing track of what the various players in the ongoing constitutional crisis believe? Sick of politicians flip-flopping? Starting, frankly, to get tired of the whole thing?

At today’s PMQs, David Cameron looked equally rattled – but he managed to make one thing clear. After Jeremy Corbyn made a reference to Cameron’s imminent departure from the top post, the Prime Minister replied by saying the Labour leader should also stand down.
