Anyhoo, back on topic…
Partygate: Boris Johnson will face Commons investigation
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/8...0a804c17b6d643
Quote:
MPs today passed a motion setting up an official inquiry by the Commons privileges committee without a vote after a government U-turn in the face of a rebellion from their own backbenches.
With only minutes to go before MPs were due to debate the issue, ministers announced that they were dropping an amendment designed to delay the vote on whether the prime minister should be investigated.
The sudden change is a sign of the scale of anger and frustration among Conservative MPs at the Downing Street parties scandal.
In a grave blow to Johnson, one of the Conservative Party’s most influential backbenchers told Johnson during today’s debate that “the gig’s up”.
Steve Baker, a former minister and a passionate Eurosceptic who backed Johnson’s leadership campaign in 2019, had said as recently as Tuesday that the prime minister “could not have made a more humble apology”.
But today he said that his feeling of “forgiveness” evaporated 90 seconds into Johnson’s appearance before Conservative backbenchers on Tuesday night, which Baker lambasted as “an orgy of adulation, a festival of bombast”.

And this from one of his biggest supporters…
