“I’ve spoken in the last week or two to a pensioner with mobility problems, who told me she dared not even put the central heating on, she’s so worried about the bills, and the government’s response has been utterly woeful,” he said. He suggested the number of fines levied in relation to events in Downing Street made it “probably the most fined workplace in the whole of the United Kingdom”.in recent days, with senior MPs including Mark Harper and Steve Baker calling for him to go.
He insisted: “I don’t think I’m defending the indefensible. I do think that what happened in Downing Street was wrong and I do feel that people feel a great deal of legitimate hurt and anger over what happened, and therefore I think it was right for the prime minister to apologise”.Speaking on Sky News, Dowden praised Johnson’s record, saying he was “getting those big calls right” and had “real energy and determination”.
