This afternoon, Caroline Nokes repeatedly grilled Boris over the government’s sexual harassment strategy – just two days after she accused the PM’s father, Stanley Johnson, of groping her in 2003. In the excruciating exchange, Nokes pressed Boris over the possibility of “making public sexual harassment a specific crime“, and the efforts to increase rape prosecutions across the country. Not an easy watch…
Boris is back in Britain after a brief 5 day holiday with Carrie in Marbella. Credit going to The Times’ Jack Blackburn for being the first to spot the amateur painter, at his dad’s book launch at Daunts, Marylebone.

While Stanley’s book is no doubt excellent, the PM may be more interested in another literary piece published last night…
“100,000 people who’ve lost their lives – you can’t be alpha plus”…
Following The Sun’s picture scoop that Jeremy Corbyn attended a party of nine, Labour’s Shadow Education Minister Dr Rosena Allin-Khan was quick to say Corbyn should face a fine for breaching the rule of six. Dr Allin-Khan added that Stanley Johnson, who appears mask-less in a shop on the front page of The Mirror this morning, should be fined too. Both will be required to pay £200 under the new tighter rules…
Corbyn tried to explain away his actions, last night telling The Sun that he “the number of guests eventually exceeded five” at a his friend’s house for dinner. Despite the table appearing set for nine. The news comes days after Piers Corbyn was told he would face a £10,000 fine for helping organise an anti-lockdown mass gathering. Runs in the family…
Hardly sticking to the messaging his son would want him to. Next round’s on Stanley…
