Hang on...this is just Conservative MPs voting. They can't acquit him. He's still done what he has done and he needs to go. He can't excuse himself for breaking the ministerial code by winning a vote of confidence from his own side.
It should go away when he goes away. "What's important is to get on with the job of government" is just bluster.

>> Partygate was so last year, as well as everything else that did or didn't occur.
He's dragged it out until people are so bored they will let him off? I suppose that could apply to crime generally? "This murder trial has gone on far too long, it's more important now that I get on with my job"?

I hope they continue to report the facts.
These people are bent. Watch the unbelievably thick Nadine Dorries's interview with Beth Rigby on Sky in which Dorries blithely admits that their clients are the party donors.

2:40 etc - "Conservative party donors have said that they won't support the party if Boris Johnson is replaced...MPs in marginal seats need to hear that and need to understand what they're doing"..."it's those donors that have helped us to win the election and they need to hear that"..."the donors have spoken" etc. This is not a slip of the tongue
Beth Rigby should have nailed her to the wall for this but was too busy looking up the next question in her notes.
Johnson wanted to wait for the Met's investigations. He was fined for breaking the law. He wanted to wait for the Gray report - he was roundly blamed for a culture of law breaking. Yet he is still there.
I fear it will be the same when the men in grey suits tell him he has to go. The framework of ethics that we thought was always there has just gone. They have no honour, any more than the senior Republicans still siding with Trump over supposed election fraud.
