Johnson will use that to claim some kind of vindication 'the independent report found no rules were broken by the PM', fire some staff and promise to 'clamp down on boozy culture' as if it were a force of nature he had no control over and attempt to move on.

 Or a few years. Lots of lovely tax rises, energy bills doubling and inflation crippling peoples quality of life. Plus Boris..... The Tories are in power aren't they? 
 
I can understand why no one wants to be leader atm and take over the inherited shambles. Maybe a new leader would wait till an election loss rather than lose the next election themselves.

 They're recycling their own stories - they reported that last year and it didn't really go anywhere at the time

				 You will occupy a pivotal leadership role in charge of three key teams in the Cabinet Office, primarily the Press Office that delivers a high quality 24/7 media relations operation for eight Ministers in the Cabinet Office, including CDL Steve Barclay, Leader of the House (Jacob Rees-Mogg) and Paymaster General (Michael Ellis). We are also responsible for media relations for Cabinet Secretary Simon Case and the Chief Executive of the Civil Service (Alex Chisholm).

 I wonder how many of those will still be in post when the interviews start?
