Boris Johnson is facing renewed pressure over the Partygate scandal amid suggestions of a second gathering in the No 10 flat and a drip-feed of Tory MPs calling for his resignation. Despite his attempts to "move on" from the rule-busting events that have rocked his premiership, allegations also emerged over the weekend that officials had attempted to dilute Sue Gray's report. On Sunday, the Cabinet Office was forced to issue a statement denying that senior figures had been able to edit or influence the 37-page document that was published on Wednesday. A spokesperson stressed that Ms Gray's long-awaited report had been "impartially conducted", and that its contents "represent the findings and conclusions of the investigation team alone". |
