If he sincerely believes in integrity in public life, the prime minister must unambiguously endorse the privileges committee’s damning verdict on his predecessor
Politicians are a brutal group. The last thing they consider is another MP’s feelings. My particular opinion is that this group of Tories are the most callous I have ever seen.
There was a theory flying around a few weeks back that Sunak was worried Johnson may release something about him, but then again the same thing was said about Raab. For me the proof of that argument will be if Sunak selects Johnson for Mid Bedfordshire when Mad Nads leaves. Johnson’s brand is toxic atm. There is absolutely nothing to gain from selecting Johnson, so you would have to wonder why he would do this.
