Coffee House Shots

Have Tory MPs forgiven Boris?

13 min • 1 februari 2022
While Boris Johnson's performance in the Common's yesterday was seen broadly as tone deaf – thanks to comments about Jimmy Savile and drug-taking on the Labour front bench – he was given a chance to redeem himself at a private meeting with his party yesterday evening.

'One of my favourite questions was when one 2019 MP asked if they could reschedule the Parliamentary away day. This received a number of groans from politicians.' – Katy Balls. 

Today, the Prime Minister leaves the Westminster drama behind him as he embarks on a diplomatic trip to Ukraine.

Isabel Hardman speaks to Katy Balls and James Forsyth about the mood in the Tory party.
