He is/was also Bagum's QC in her failed leave to Enter [UK] claim. He does seem to like the hard cases.

Your link says:
"Boris Johnson and his allies have launched a legal fightback against a Commons inquiry into claims he lied to parliament about partygate.
The government has commissioned legal advice from a top QC, Lord Pannick, which the PM's supporters claim undermines the legitimacy of the inquiry."
Boris Johnson and his allies.
Unfair isn't really a defence that stands up to legal scrutiny, is it?
The BeeB reports the inquiry will go ahead regardless and all Lord Pannick has is an opinion. He resorts to the same argument we've had here; did de Piffle knowingly mislead/lie to parliament when he claimed no parties had taken place during the lockdown. Clearly he cannot deny knowledge of an event he attended, drink in hand, so it comes down to a legal definition of what constitutes a party.

If I can remember it the following day, it wasn't a partay.
It was hilarious watching Bozza squirm as the truth unfolded quicker than his excuses. Must have been a tough watch for filly, whilst his hero tossed his word salad in a vein attempt at mashing his lies with the truth.
Pitiful.

the privileges commitee was set up with the agreement of parliament.

How much do we waste paying for every illegal migrants desperate challenged against deportation?
This is a paper that has no bearing on the process and is for the sole benefit of Boris as an individual, that has been paid out of the public purse.
This is more than his flat refurb cost.
We all know Johnson lied to parliament, jeez he has been doing it for years.

claiming there would be no checks in Northern Ireland - was a lie
claiming they are building 40 hospitals…was a lie
claiming fastest growth in G7.,..,was a lie
claiming greatest Increase in employment…was a lie

Brexit wasted £100 billion
brexit red tape costs £10 billion a year
Johnson spaffed £250 million on Brexit propaganda
Tories spaffed billions on bogus PPE contracts
You seem to be missing the point, or ignoring it based on your bias and prejudice.
The issue is that a Parliamentary panel, at a centre of 'democracy/ justice/ fairness etc' which should be carrying out an impartial investigation of a Government Minister, has already determined the outcome and the penalties to be imposed.
