However, Downing Street later confirmed the PM would "ask Sue Gray to update her work in light of what is found" by the police after their inquiries conclude, adding they would publish the result of this work.Many Conservative MPs had said they were waiting for Ms Gray's full report to decide whether to try to remove the PM from office.
Peterborough MP Paul Bristow acknowledged it had been a "difficult day" but said there was support for Mr Johnson.
