A Boris Johnson-backing MP has tried to defend the Prime Minister by saying he made a mistake, "we've all done it", and "he's not robbed a bank!".
Andrew Rosindell, who helped with the PM's 2019 leadership campaign, trotted out the latest in a string of eye-popping defences over Partygate after Mr Johnson launched so-called 'Operation Big Dog'.
Another Tory, Conor Burns, was roasted by TV chef Nigella Lawson for claiming the PM was "ambushed by cake" at a June 2020 birthday party.
