Explainer: Take a look at the sleaze claims facing Boris Johnson and the Conservative Party

Sir Geoffrey has so far earned more than £800,000 for his work for law firm Withers, who are representing the British Virgin Islands government during a corruption inquiry.

Labour have called on the prime minister to"show leadership" and order an"urgent independent investigation" into Sir Geoffrey's lucrative legal work. An ex-party chairman was quoted by the newspaper as saying:"The truth is the entire political establishment knows this happens and they do nothing about it… The most telling line is, once you pay your £3m, you get your peerage."

Questions have been asked about why the holiday was not declared by Mr Johnson in the separate register of MPs' interests.
