So when does this report emerge?
90 days.
Just scanned the conclusions and it is pretty savage. He is Officially a Lying Wanker.
Boris Johnson has released a scathing 1,700 word statement on the Privileges Committee’s report into partygate describing the findings as “deranged” and “beneath contempt”.
"but he is a character " half the British public repliede
This should piss off even more Tory MPs.

Lovely...Aye, I was just correcting my post, 90 days would have been amazing.
They didn't hold back at all From Sky News -
The key findings of the report - what you need to know
After months of investigation, the report into whether Boris Johnson lied to parliament over Partygate has finally been published.
Mr Johnson sensationally resigned as a Conservative MP on Friday, accusing the investigation of amounting to a "witch hunt".
The report will ultimately decide whether the former prime minister lied to MPs over Partygate while he was in office.
Here, Sky News rounds up the key findings of the 108-page report:
- The investigation found that Boris Johnson did mislead parliament over Partygate;
- It recommended that Mr Johnson be suspended from the House for 90 days "for repeated contempts and for seeking to undermine the parliamentary process" - had he still been an MP;
- This was by deliberately misleading the House, the Privileges Committee, by breaching confidence and "undermining the democratic process of the house";
- The report also found Mr Johnson was "complicit in the campaign of abuse and attempted intimidation of the Committee";
- It added: "We recommend that he should not be entitled to a former Member's pass".
Aha. Boris is dragging up this piffle. https://archive.md/O1hftNot sure what "Bernard Jenkin’s nudist colonies" in Johnson's statement is about. Not sure I want to know either?
I think Johnston has secured the monopoly on that.bring on the Tory back stabbing
that's what I was wonderingIf he were to become an MP again in the future would he have to serve the 90 days?
it was lying about Watergate that brought Nixon down, so I guess Johnson is in good companyJust read summaries - it is quite damning of him - at the time, if he'd just held his hands up, said he'd fucked up, he was under a lot of pressure - the strain of running the country in a pandemic, all this wouldn't have happened - people would have shrugged their shoulders - it's just bumbling Boris being bumbling , and he'd probably still be in power. Instead he lied, the lies brought him down. It was very Trump-like - just deny deny deny until they go away.
This should piss off even more Tory MPs.

This is a dreadful day for MPs and for democracy. This decision means that no MP is free from vendetta, or expulsion on trumped up charges by a tiny minority who want to see him or her gone from the Commons.
I do not have the slightest contempt for parliament, or for the important work that should be done by the Privileges Committee. But for the Privileges Committee to use its prerogatives in this anti-democratic way, to bring about what is intended to be the final knife-thrust in a protracted political assassination – that is beneath contempt.
It is for the people of this country to decide who sits in parliament, not Harriet Harman.
