Boris Johnson angrily hits out at partygate report as Rishi Sunak avoids questions

The Prime Minister has avoided partygate questions on the morning the report concluding Boris Johnson misled Parliament is due to be released.

Asked whether he thought Mr Johnson should be allowed to be an MP, Rishi Sunak said he had not seen the report and it “wouldn’t be right to comment”.

It comes after Mr Johnson resigned as an MP after receiving the results of the investigation in advance, which he said found him guilty “regardless of the actual facts”.

Last night, he called for senior Tory MP Sir Bernard Jenkin to quit the Privileges Committee for breaching lockdown regulations, in what has been called a “last-ditch attempt” to delay the report.
