Mr Johnson was angered after his diaries from his time as prime minister were handed over to the police following concerns from the government and its lawyers that he had broken more rules during the pandemic. But the health secretary and a staunch ally have offered him support.
Boris Johnson has a"huge role to play" in the future of the Conservative Party, according to one cabinet minister, while a staunch ally of the ex-prime minister urged"the left" to leave him alone.
Lawyers defending the government at the official COVID inquiry recently examined Mr Johnson's itinerary from the time, and were later referred to law enforcement, with reports his meetings showed people visiting Chequers while restrictions were in place.Asked if Mr Johnson's time as a politician was over, Health Secretary Steve Barclay told Sophy Ridge on Sunday:"No, I think Boris has a huge role to play.
Mr Barclay added that he"of course" wants to see Boris Johnson return as a member of parliament after the next election, as with all his Conservative colleagues.'Is Boris Johnson toast?'
