SIR – Boris Johnson was very happy to receive the credit for his party’s success in the 2019 general election, but is not prepared to accept the blame for the two disastrous by-election results just suffered . Those members who did not support him in the recent vote of confidence have the solution in their hands. They should advise the Chief Whip that they will be abstaining in all parliamentary votes until he resigns. They would be doing the country a great service.

It means that a leader must be genuine and utterly sound, be honest to himself and others and have no trace of hypocrisy. It involves taking responsibility for things that are his fault. It means not betraying a trust, even when it may now be an accepted part of civil society’s culture … [Read more...] about Letters: If Boris Johnson won’t accept the by-election verdict, then Tory MPs must force him out

Boris Johnson today refused to deny considering a plum job or jobs for his future wife Carrie. The Prime Minister was asked if he had “ever considered” her appointment to either a taxpayer-funded government post - or “any organisation in one of the royal households”. It comes after the Mirror revealed the Prime Minister asked Cabinet Secretary Simon Case to approach the Royal Foundation which runs the Earthshot Prize in autumn 2020 - while she was his fiancee. According to the Telegraph, the senior civil servant asked the Foundation if Mrs Johnson would be suitable for a communications role, and whether she could expect to be paid. The Palace is said to have decided it would be inappropriate. It followed allegations Boris Johnson tried to make Carrie his £100,000-a-year, taxpayer-funded chief of staff two years earlier, when he was Foreign Secretary and she was his girlfriend.
