Sue Gray and bias in the Partygate report


The right have complained that the Sue Gray report into the parties that Boris Johnson had is biased.  Personally, I think that she was too kind to him.  This has come about as she is to leave the civil service to take up a job with Labour.  

There was a great interview on Radio Four on the Today programme.  Basically, she made no allegations and had not attended any of the parties.  There also is an interim parliamentary report which appears to be worse for Boris Johnson, stating that there is evidence that he knowingly misled MP's over PartyGate. Which means that there is no reason to run the investigation again, even though Boris Johnson has pleaded innocence.  

Boris Johnson lied about the parties he attended.  And from what I can gather, only one person, a woman who had not attended a party, has lost their job over this.
