Break out the bunting, get the Christmas sherry from the back of the cupboard – Boris Johnson is gone. Sort of.

After being told the verdict of the Privileges Committee inquiry into whether he had knowingly misled Parliament, he has stepped down as an MP with immediate effect, but if ever a man had the whiff of a bad penny, it’s Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson.
