The right-leaning newspaper said it is 'delighted' to welcome 'one of the wittiest and most original writers in the business'.

BORIS JOHNSON HAS been accused of committing a “clear breach” of the UK ministerial rules by only informing the appointments watchdog of his new role as a Daily Mail columnist half an hour before the public announcement.

Today’s Daily Mail used its front page to bill an “erudite” new columnist who will be “required reading in Westminster”. But Acoba, chaired by Tory peer Eric Pickles, was clear that Johnson’s last-minute declaration was a breach of the rules. In a video shared alongside the announcement, Johnson said he is “thrilled” to contribute to “those illustrious pages”, and promised to deliver “completely unexpurgated stuff”.There has been speculation about whether Johnson would return to his journalism roots after he dramatically quit as an MP last week ahead of a report that found he lied to Parliament with his denials of lockdown rule-breaking in No 10.

The former culture secretary, who has also announced her exit from the Commons, used her most recent piece to suggest “sinister forces” were behind the decision to exclude her from Johnson’s controversial resignation honours list.
