A top Tory has said the "world has moved on" from Boris Johnson after the bitter ex-PM dramatically quit Parliament before he could be ousted over the Partygate 'lies' probe.
Energy Security Secretary Grant Shapps rejected Mr Johnson's claims he'd been forced out, saying "he is the one who has removed himself" by resigning as an MP.
Mr Johnson said he was stepping down on Friday after being sent the findings of the Commons Privileges Committee report into whether he misled MPs over what he knew about lockdown boozing in No10.
