Johnson's efforts to win round wavering Tory MPs took a Shakespearean turn last night.
But Dominic Raab claimed the comments were just the "cut and thrust of parliamentary debates".
“I wonder if Daily Express readers have noticed Boris Johnson has just hiked their taxes to a 70 year high to help pay for the NHS after he promised a massive Brexit dividend of £350m a week if we left the European Union,” lawyer and filmmaker Peter Stefanovic said.
Lord Agnew quit last week, hitting out at the government's "egregious" failure to tackle fraud.
A snap poll on Monday afternoon revealed that 65 per cent of Brits don't accept Johnson's apology.
"I can’t imagine there are many circumstances in which Nadine Dorries would defend me, but I’m absolutely certain that there are none in which I’d want her to."
"People, and I think our constituents, want to see us getting on with the job," the deputy prime minister insisted.
“If these proposals involve changing the law in devolved policy areas, then pressing ahead without the consent of the Scottish parliament would demonstrate yet again the UK government’s intent to undermine devolution," a senior Scottish minister has said.
A speechless Nadine Dorries was left only saying "the prime minister tells the truth" after the PM gets caught bang to rights.
