At the weekend it was confirmed – what many had long suspected – that there had been an affair between the Prime Minister and Jennifer Arcuri.
As sordid and sad as the story may be, with a deceived wife, let-down children and abandoned lovers along the way, their bedroom stories should be their own business and none of ours.
What is very much our business, however, is the tax payers’ money which was spent on the, then, Mayor of London’s sex partner. The police decided not to investigate the matter and that was surely yet another message to top ministers that they can get away with questionable behaviour.
A recent parallel is the Health Minister awarding contracts during the Covid crisis without proper procurement procedures. The High Court later stated that this was unlawful, but so far there has been no repercussion.
The Greater London Assembly has now decided to resume their investigation of Mr Johnson’s conduct in public life.
