Prime minister apologises and says he attended party for 25 minutes on 20 May 2020
Boris Johnson has admitted attending an event in the Downing Street garden during the first lockdown and apologised to the nation while arguing the gathering could “technically” be said to have not broken any rules.
Johnson’s version of events was not accepted by Keir Starmer, with the Labour leader saying the prime minister should step down. “The only question is: will the British public kick him out, will his party kick him out, or will he do the decent thing and resign?” Starmer said.
