Partygate probe does not have any new bombshell information that will condemn Boris Johnson, insiders claim
THE Partygate probe does not have any new bombshell information that will condemn Boris Johnson, insiders have told The Sun on Sunday.
The revelation will fuel hopes BoJo can ride out the storm if he returns as Prime Minister.
The Privileges Committee of MPs will hear evidence into claims Boris lied to MPs over allegations of lockdown breaking in Downing Street next month.
The probe, led by Labour grandee Harriet Harman, will trawl through the allegations and is expected to haul Boris in for questioning.
If he is found to have lied, he could be booted out of Parliament and face a by-election in his seat of Uxbridge and South Ruislip.
But insiders said that most of the information they are looking at is already out there in the Sue Gray report.

The insider said: “It’s wrong to suggest there is new damning evidence.
"There has been no additional material. Pictures of the events are already in the public domain.”
