As some Tories join calls for Boris Johnson to quit over partygate, his chairman says it would bring uncertainty.
Last week, Mr Johnson - along with his wife and Chancellor Rishi Sunak - was fined by police for attending a birthday party thrown in his honour in the Cabinet Room in June 2020.

On Thursday, MPs also voted for an investigation by a parliamentary committee to take place over whether the prime minister misled the House over his statements on No 10 parties.Liberal Democrat deputy leader Daisy Cooper said there was "a point of principle" in holding him to account, telling the BBC: "If you allow a prime minister to mislead Parliament without any repercussions, we end up in a very dangerous place.
