The Independent - Back off Boris … or you’ll consign Tories to 10 years in the wilderness

Summary of the front page

The Independent says Boris Johnson’s comeback risks a 1997-style landslide election defeat for the Conservative Party if his loyalists insist on his return to No 10.

That is the stark warning issued by former Brexit secretary minister David Davis as he approaches the anniversary of his dramatic demand for Mr Johnson to quit as prime minister, at the height of last year’s Partygate scandal.

 

Writing for The Independent, Mr Davis warns that while the “continual drumbeat” calling for Johnson’s return would fail, it was “corroding” the party’s electoral chances.

The front page features an image of the missing couple and their young child as it revealed the woman is an aristocrat whilst her partner spent time in prison in the US.
