    Seems to be a lot of gossip and speculation on the Twittersphere that another minister's shenanigans are about to be exposed. Seems like any news is being attempted to be suppressed until after today's by-election.

    It would have to be something bigger than a minister having an affair to be worth suppressing. That’s so common now that it’s barely newsworthy. Apparently there are loads of ‘open secrets’ around Westminster.

    Johnson tells the truth. That would be a massive story. No one would believe it though.

    Have tried having a dig using various keywords and this is all I can find. Is this what you are referring to?

    I missed half of it on James O'Brian this morning they were on about emails in connection with awarding contracts to Tory donors by the sound of it, it's going to court and the Government is trying to suppress these emails being public knowledge, I wish I could have heard it from the start.

    Sadly, nobody cares.

    Johnson - eeeeee, he was funny on Have I Got News For You - got Brexit done, and he's biffed Covid on the nose.

    That's that. I imagine he'd win a general election if one were held today.

    I wonder if this could be Gove? His wife did a really strange piece last week (she writes for the Daily Heil) which seemed to criticise husbands in politics and how their spouses view them. Marina Hyde picked up on it and did an alternate piece.

    Or is there finally a move afoot to depose the liar? Been notable the last few days that Sunak has been much more visible.

    Reminds me of The Thick of it when Malcolm says he has photos of ministers in compromising positions and and is looking for a chance to use them ...

    He’d get all the red wall seats tomorrow if it were called .
    Tried having a conversation with some of the blue rinse brigade but apparently Enoch Powell was right all along so there you go , shows how much I knew,
    I ended the conversation before it got to Hitler was right because it came that close .

    Let’s face it, loads of them are probably ‘at it’ the only novelty is being daft enough to get caught!

    Not many who actually were adults during the war left alive.

    Tried asking how all this immigration affected them and it mostly came out as they were fed up of hearing people talking foreign languages in Ridings centre .
    Some of the thought processes was mind blowing , there really is some nasty old ***** about .
    So yeah most of their village was white English as was where they spent most of their activities but the Ridings centre is a hot bed of dirty rotten foreigners that don’t speak English oh and a few at the Doctors surgery including Doctors .
    All this on the back of they can’t wait for Spain to open up for some sun .
    I didn’t even bother to ask if they could speak Spanish

    When you look at some of the photos of them over the years you don't need to be a body language expert and plenty of them having meals for two together. She was the first minister to stick up for him as well.

    Lord Bethal of Romford deep in it, Good Law Project got another one in court next which points worse abuse by all accounts. They've got civil servants emails which provide context.

    The blue passport mob won't care
