Lord Geidt’s resignation letter is bad for the Government. In it, the Prime Minister’s now-former ethics advisor accuses him of risking a “deliberate and purposeful breach of the ministerial code” that had placed Geidt in an “impossible and odious position”.
Intriguingly, the peer writes that a “deliberate breach, or even an intention to do so would be to suspend the provisions of the code to suit a political end.” What could he be alluding to?
