TL;DR

Conservative MPs are divided over whether to approve a report condemning Boris Johnson for misleading Parliament over Covid rule-breaking. The former PM has branded the Privileges Committee's findings "deranged" - and his most loyal supporters are set to vote against it. But other Tory MPs are torn about what to do, as Mr Johnson remains popular with many party members. MPs will get the chance to approve or reject its recommendations on Monday.
