Norman Tebbit is on very thin ice. When previous Leaders have seriously considered removing him from the Conservative Party, then his defenders have turned round to his detractors and asked, "What about you?" If Michael Heseltine went, then so would he. That would be the deal.
As it is, that they both remain is an application of the Woodcock-Pidcock Principle. Jeremy Corbyn can always point out that he has not removed John Woodcock, nor has Woodcock made any attempt to remove himself, while at the same time he has not given any kind of job to Laura Pidcock, either.
Nor has Theresa May either removed or promoted either Anna Soubry or Jacob Rees-Mogg. And nor has she removed either Michael Heseltine or Norman Tebbit.
