Lord Geidt tells Boris Johnson why he felt he could not continue as his standards adviser.

Boris Johnson’s former ethics adviser Lord Geidt says he quit after being placed in an “impossible and odious” position over a plan to risk breaking the ministerial code.

In his resignation letter, he said it would “make a mockery” of the rules on ministers’ behaviour, adding “I can have no part in this”.

He told the PM he had considered resigning over Partygate.
