As expected we did not get the full unredacted Sue Gray report, we got a heavily edited precis instead.

Note to journalists: It is not an "update" as it is impossible to update something when it has not been published.

The only thing we really learnt is that there are 12 of 16 'incidents' being investigated by the Met and that its investigations will take weeks rather than days.

I do hope Ms Gray has done that as I have no confidence that we will ever get to see the full and unredacted report by any means other than a leak.

Pleased to see my former MP Andrew Mitchell tell Johnson in the Commons that he had lost his support.
Also pleased to hear Theresa May and Keith Starmer's contributions to the "debate".

But Johnson will bluster his way out of it, especially when Toady Tory MPs like my current one, Simon Hoare, continue to sit on the fence saying nothing.
I never did receive even an acknowledgement of my email to him.

Sue Gray says that she has more that the PM hasn't seen and is under lock and key.

That's good, now watch your back, Sue. Don't go out alone and only eat food you prepare yourself - drink bottled water.

Btw: Cressida Dick is married to Helen Ball, Assistant Commissioner for Professionalism, leading the 'partygate inquiry'. Sajid Javid’s brother, Baz Javid, is Deputy Assistant Commissioner for Professional Standards. He reports to Helen Ball, Cressida Dick’s wife.

Just worth a mention....

Too right Ossie! Our MP is a Toady Tory too
