Nusrat spoke to PM Johnson
Nusrat Ghani welcomed the investigation in a statement on Twitter, which reveals that she spoke to Johnson on Sunday night. "As I told the Prime Minister last night, all I want is to take it seriously and investigate it," she said. I welcome his decision to do so now. The terms of reference of the investigation must include everything said by Downing Street and the Whip. I look forward to seeing the terms of reference.
