LONDON: Claims by former senior advisors for Boris Johnson that the British Prime Minister Lying to Parliament about not knowing about the downing street party was nonsense, he said on Tuesday.
Asked whether the primary of the first minister ended if it could be proven that he had lied to the parliament, Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab said: “Look, the suggestion that he lied was nonsense.” He made it very clear to Commons’s house, took a question about this, that he thought it was a workshade, “he told Radio Times.
Johnson last week apologized to the parliament to attend” Bring your own liquor “at Downing Street Park on May 20, 2020 , but said he had thought it was a work ceremony .
“not only me but other witnesses who discussed this at the time of going to swear under oath here’s what happened,” he said on his blog.
Ask whether Johnson should resign if he is lying, Raab will not speculate on hypothetical.
Jo apology Hnson came after news ITV published an email invitation from the main private secretary of Johnson Ma RTIN Reynolds to the show on May 20 2020, ask participants to “bring your own liquor”.
Cummings said that after Reynolds was told to cancel the invitation by at least two people, Reynolds checked with Johnson if he had to continue.
“PM agreed to be,” said Cummings on his blog.
Civil Servants Sue Gray is investigating around a dozen charges of solving rules by Johnson, his team and officials at 10 official residences.
Senior ministers say people need to wait for the conclusion of his investigation.
However, the scandal has seen Johnson’s personal rating and support for the conservative party has been immersed in the poll.
More and more conservative parliamentarians say he must now resign.
“I will call on behalf of anyone who has been found to have violated the rules,” said Minister of Health Junior Caulfield on his website.
“It is clear that there is a culture in number 10 where even if the rules are not technically damaged, the spirit of the rules, and this is completely unacceptable.”
