The latest on the PM's future features on every single one of Thursday's national front pages.

Tory former minister David Davis is pictured on the front of several papers including the Daily Telegraph, after he prompted gasps in the Commons when he told Boris Johnson to his face he should quit. Mr Johnson's official spokesman has said the PM will fight any leadership challenge, the Telegraph reports. Speaking to the paper, Mr Davis says Mr Johnson will have to be "dragged out kicking and screaming", or his party faces a "year of agony".

One government source says: "She's genuinely struggling to reconcile the prime minister's claim that this was a work event with what she's been hearing from other people."The Financial Times said Mr Johnson has secured "a fragile truce with his own party" after yesterday's drama in the Commons. MPs say Mr Johnson has bought himself time until next week, when Sue Gray's inquiry into the No 10 parties will finish.
