Boris Johnson has endured a final humiliation over the Partygate scandal in parliament as MPs backed the scathing report which found he deliberately lied to the Commons and just seven Tories voted in his favour.
Rishi Sunak was accused of being “too weak” to stand up to Mr Johnson and his “sycophants” after the PM ducked the Commons debate as the privileges committee report was approved by the opposition and 118 Tory MPs.
