It implies that he wrongly advised the Queen. That means he should
now resign as PM.


Why?

...

Because one of the cornerstones of our system of constitutional monarchy
is that the monarch must be able to rely absolutely on the advice given
by the PM. This judgment provides the basis for the constitutionally
dangerous precedent that the monarch might have to reject that advice.
The only way to avoid that is for any PM who wrongly advises the monarch
to step down from office immediately it is determined that has happened.



The Queen is now probably amongst the large number that doesn't trust
boris at all.

Of course there is no requirement to tell the Queen why you are doing it
AFAIK.

The reason boris didn't present any evidence may have something to do
with what he told The Queen so she didn't get called to testify but
unless the room was bugged we will never know.
