The key thing that can happen and is being pushed for is to ensure that the full Sue Gray report is released and not an executive summary controlled by the PM.

The Met has already said they have no issue in that happening - even if then questions of any illegality has to be reserved for the Met inquiries.

The Police are happy for the report to be published so to ask why the government is holding it up is a logical question.

The police inquiry must take president over the internal one, It would be wrong to undermine the police report with it.

If the Police thought it would undermine the inquiry they would have said so and request it not be released.

That’s right, and any further questions from Starmer can be answered with a simple ‘Inrefer the art Hon gentleman to my previous answer. Should be done and dusted in no time!

And what if the two enquiries come to different conclusions, which one do we accept.

The PM is not holding up the inquiry. The date of publication of the findings of fact is up to the investigation team.

Due to the drip, drip tactics of Cummings and other wreckers, the inquiry might not now be completed for some weeks.

It’s time for these people to put up or shut up.

The Gray report is looking to establish the facts, whereas the police are looking at whether any laws were broken.

Sky News understands that officials have handed over to investigators photos of parties in Downing Street which include images of Boris Johnson

Sue Gray was given the pictures of people close together with wine bottles.

Fully expecting lots of tears and shouts of 'cover up' when the police report comes out as "nothing to see here, move along"

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

Sue Gray report going to tell us what we already know. That there were more than a few parties in Downing Street.

Got news for the Remainiacs. If Boris has to go. It’s not going to stop Brexit or reverse it, as the silly old prick, Michael Heseltine alluded to this morning on Sky News.

Not heard of that nutter for a while, honestly thought he was dead. Just goes to show how far down Sky News will go to get views/comments that reflect their position

I can't see that being a widely shared view about trying to reverse Brexit. You can't stop something that's done either.

Also how can you have 'Remainiacs' when we've left?
