EMBARGO: Immediate Release

Responding to reports from The Guardian that Boris Johnson has been profiting from contacts he made while Prime Minister, Liberal Democrat Cabinet Office Spokesperson Sarah Olney MP said:

"These allegations are extremely shocking.

"This is yet another reminder of how deep the rot in the Conservative Party goes — it is riddled by sleaze and scandal.

“The government must suspend Boris Johnson's access to the former prime minister public duty cost allowance pending a full and proper investigation.”
