Sue Gray report handed to Downing Street as Commons awaits Boris Johnson appearance

The Sue Gray report into the Downing Street partygate scandal has been handed in to Downing Street.

A Cabinet Office spokesperson said: "We can confirm that Sue Gray has provided an update on her investigations to the Prime Minister."

The senior civil servant provided the update to No 10 after working to pare it back following a request from the Metropolitan Police.

Downing Street has committed to quickly publishing the inquiry after receiving it.

Ahead of an expected appearance in front of the Commons at 3.30pm on Monday the Prime Minister insisted that the report would not be a whitewash.

Johnson said: “You are going to have to wait and see both what Sue says and of course what the Met says.”

During a visit to a freeport in Tilbury, Essex, he said: “You’re going to have to wait and see the outcome of the investigations, but of course I stick absolutely to what I’ve said in the past,” The Prime Minister was also questioned about reportedly telling MPs privately he thinks he has done nothing wrong.

Gray’s report was thrown into disarray when Scotland Yard last week requested that she makes only minimal reference to events that officers are investigating.
