Mr Johnson stood down as an MP on Friday, branding the Privileges Committee a 'kangaroo court'.
Meanwhile on Sunday, Grant Shapps said people wanted to move on from the "drama" of Boris Johnson, dismissing the ex-PM's claim that he was the victim of a witch hunt.
Mr Johnson stood down from Parliament just hours after Downing Street published his resignation honours list without the names of key supporters, including Nadine Dorries, Sir Alok Sharma and Nigel Adams.Competing claims about how and why the names were removed are now at the heart of a rift within the Tory party following the former PM's resignation.
The House of Lords Appointments Commission - the official body for checking and vetting new peers - has confirmed it rejected eight of Mr Johnson's nominations on the grounds of propriety.
