Before the Met launched its investigation, the general consensus was that if the prime minister were fined for breaking his own laws, he would have to resign. But shifting expectations management means his allies are now trying to claim that because he received only one fine – when he could have been in line for more, for breaking the law on several occasions – his position is secure.
