of the information provided by the cabinet office inquiry team, and secondly, my officers' own assessment... that's right — the police first decided not to investigate, but after receiving information from an investigation by the civil servant sue gray, the police now will investigate. and this is the prime minister's reaction. i welcome the met's decision i to conduct its own investigation because i believe this - will help to give the public the clarity it needs, - and help to draw a line under matters. also on tuesday, when mrjohnson's spokesperson was asked if he thinks he's broken the law, the reply was, "i think that's fair to say that he does not." it's also fair to say the opposition has already drawn some conclusions. potential criminality has been found in downing street. what a truly damning reflection on our nation's very highest office. and while mrjohnson's under sustained political attack, his supporters have rallied round.
