Boris Johnson threatened a comeback just minutes after quitting as an MP - and won’t rule out standing in Nadine Dorries’ seat.
The disgraced former Prime Minister issued a lengthy statement tonight announcing he was resigning as Uxbridge and South Ruislip MP to avoid being ousted over Partygate - and triggering an immediate by-election.
He blamed his exit on a draft “kangaroo court” privileges committee report, which is thought to have found he lied to Parliament.
