I feel sure there is an unwritten, but accepted Parliamentary practice that former Prime Minister's will not be subjected to a botty spanking.
I suppose that Goldsmith sensed the Guillotine being oiled and thought, "ooops, time to make a bolt for it".
Off with their heads...
Figuratively speaking of course.
Most apparatchiks accept their lot in life and live according to the principle of BOHICA!

It appears that Goldsmith has had enough of bending over, and is seeking to protect his reputation.
I doubt this will go down well. As the game plays out, I suspect Goldsmith was a designated patsy - expendable and potential collateral damage.
I'm also sure that this apparatchik was not meant to make it crystal clear that the British PM, Blair, was lying.
No wonder spinmeister Campbell is suddenly doing God, and promoting the pompous and puerile notion of Blair the leader with a Christian conscience.
A plague on all their houses.
