Conservatives rule Boris Johnson comparing Muslim women in veils to letter boxes and bank robbers...

....was 'respectful'

Boris Johnson has been cleared of breaching the Conservative Party’s code of conduct by comparing veiled Muslim women to letter boxes and bank robbers.

An independent panel decided the former foreign secretary was “respectful and tolerant” and was entitled to use “satire” in his newspaper column in August.
