The Guardian says the prime minister is “embroiled in an extraordinary standoff” with Lord Zac Goldsmith after he quit as a Foreign Office minister. The paper writes that Lord Goldsmith resigned with a personal attack on Rishi Sunak, warning him that voters would punish him over his climate “apathy”. Mr Sunak “hit back” in a letter suggesting Lord Goldsmith’s departure was linked to No 10 asking him to apologise over comments made about the Privileges Committee’s inquiry into Boris Johnson.
