The crafty bugger ez plotted his way art.

1. Claim in the Commons that he was told by his advisers that no party took place and claims he took their word

2. Condemn and be outraged by the video of the laughing advisers.

3 The age old tactic of setting up an internal inquiry "to get to the truth of the matter". If any adviser is guilty of holding a party he knew nothing abart say they will be disciplined.

4 Put pressure on Senior Press Spokeswoman to resign to imply it was her to blame for "hiding" the party from PM

5 Inquiry reports that Johnson knew nothing abart the party and was deceived by his advisers

6 Advisers blamed and sacked. Johnson the hero for sorting it all out and becomes the victim in all this.
