I don’t suppose he’s asked himself what may be the cause of the investigation as he’s stated he feels he’s entirely innocent?

His resignation statement also remarks that he doesn’t want his wife’s death used by political opponents as a “political football,” I may have this wrong but wasn’t the first person to use his wife’s suicide as some sort of mitigating circumstance Boris Johnson?

Boris then still throws him under the bus.

It’s sad but laughable.
This tends to confirm that Johnson has more to fear from his own party than the feeble official opposition.
