When #RishiSunak had the opportunity to demonstrate his own integrity, professionalism and accountability he was (AGAIN) missing in action for the debate on the special report by the privileges committee on the behaviour of seven of his MPs during the inquiry into #BorisJohnson lying to parliament

So it was left to #PennyMordaunt, the leader of the house, to open the debate for the government. Behind her on the Tory benches were six of the accused. #JacobReesMogg, #PritiPatel, #AndreaJenkyns, #MichaelFabricant, #MarkJenkinson and #BrendanClarkeSmith. There was no sign of #NadineDorries, who spends even less time in Parliament than the PM.

Apologies unforthcoming as privileges committee special report is debated

Rishi was missing in action. It was left to Penny Mordaunt to open proceedings, while Rees-Mogg ploughed on

The Guardian

'The gaslighting of a nation has finally come to an end',

says #CarolineLucas (Green Party MP) in the debate in the House of Commons about its #PrivilegesComittee report on whether #BorisJohnson has consistently lied at every opportunity and should be suspended for 90 days, as recommended by the committee.

Johnson leaked the recommendations of the committee in advance, and announced his immediate resignation as MP for Uxbridge.
