Malcolm Rifkind on R4 Today at about 7.30am is worth a listen.
In about 20 seconds he basically accuses: Johnson of corruptly influencing the committee, against the statute; whoever advises him (DommyC) of being incompetent and Grayling of being infinitely less competent that Julian Lewis.
Dominic Grieve was absolutely fuming on Newsnight. Seems like a fair bit of backbench anger.
As Oliver says, Lewis is still going to vote with the Tories for the most part, but it starts to plant seeds of rebellion against Gove/Johnson/Cummings.

I was in stitches.
