It is difficult to trust anyone at the top of government now. John Major in his speech today got it spot on!
Does Khan want someone in place to make sure the long arm of the law reaches out to the Partygate participants.
Does No 10 want Cressida out to delay the police investigation and hope it dies in the long grass.
Is the Mayor is right in judging her performance seriously sub-par. Her performance in investigating the nonsense at No 10 was dire, but the job is a difficult one.
Why was she given a two year contract extension - Khan had been Mayor since 2016 and must have already formed a judgement.
In making her recommendation to the Queen, the Home Secretary has a statutory duty to have regard for the views of the Mayor of London. Did she fail to consult, or is Sadiq stirring it.
I don't normally do conspiracy theories - but a lack of integrity and the single minded pursuit of political goals leads me to question their veracity.
