The Sue Gray report on No 10 parties: our writers on what should happen next | Nesrine Malik and others

With some of Sue Gray's findings published, what will the implications be for Boris Johnson? Our experts give their view

In any normal political climate, the Sue Gray report should be a final word. It is not short on statements that should condemn the prime minister, confirming the facts that have been out in the public domain for weeks now. Twelve parties - all but four of those that took place - are under criminal investigation. One of those, and this is not a passing detail, took place in the prime minister's own flat. While the rest of the country was negotiating the fine technicalities of what constitutes a breach of the rules, in some instances pondering whether to sit on a bench in the park or not, these parties seem to suggest that No 10 and civil service staff, under the eye of the prime minister, believed they were exempt.
