James Cleverly said it is “not as straightforward” as Johnson resigning if found to have breached the Ministerial Code.

“It’s the town council doing the bins, providing the local parks and playgrounds, it’s all of those things but no one pays attention to it.”

"Boris Johnson is not somebody that is immune to democracy."

Ardern said: “If there was ever a time to close the gap between groups of people across New Zealand in different positions, it is now. I am responsible for the executive branch and this is where we can take action … it is about showing solidarity in New Zealand’s time of need.”

It comes as Caroline Lucas warned that it is becoming "impossible" for the government to be held to account when the PM “systematically lies at the dispatch box with impunity”.

Also reports today claim a Tory donor was asked to fund a nanny for Boris Johnson's baby because the Prime Minister can't survive on his £157,372-a-year salary.

There are also claims that Tory chiefs footed a bill for the PM's £165-an-hour personal trainer.

Over half (52%) think Johnson probably did make his “let the bodies pile high” comment.

He says he “personally” paid for the renovations but has refused to say whether he received an initial donation from the Conservative Party to cover the costs.
