Being Boris Johnson's ethics adviser must be a bit like being an Admiral in the Slovakian Navy.

Boris Johnson's ethics advisor has resigned. His Minister for Not Telling Lies, Senior Advisor for Not Having Affairs, and Secretary of State for Not Breaking the Laws that You Yourself Imposed on Other People are said to be considering their positions… https://t.co/9g88Nc5Xxc

Shock as Boris Johnson’s ethics adviser quits. Specifically, shock that someone was being paid to advise Boris Johnson on ethics.

To be fair to Lord Geidt, he probably had more influence on Boris Johnson’s behaviour than the personal trainer that he hired to get himself fit after Covid-19. https://t.co/avFK6C3BX9

Of course, all eyes will be on Lord Geidt’s replacement.

A vacancy has arisen for the post of Ethics Adviser to the Prime Minister. It's a highly specialist post, but don't worry if you have no relevant experience. Training will be given, followed by a life peerage if you tell the PM what he wants to hear. https://t.co/BuSF9Oe3sX

It’s a shame Nadine Dorries is busy.
