Hi,
"Recently there was speculation that Mr Hilton's frustrations might persuade him to walk out on Mr Cameron. Allies insist the moment has passed and that he is there for the duration." [From The Independent.]
Does the clause "he is there for the duration" mean 'he is there for the time being'?
Thank you.
