UK PM urges public to wait for ‘party gate’ report

Britain and the world has been gripped by the long-running “PartyGate’ scandal

Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Downing Street have been accused of breaking their own lockdown rules and socialising during the nation’s strict lockdowns.

When pressed again as to whether Sue Gray’s report will be published in full, the P-M replied “of course” but could not give reporters an exact date on when the findings will be released.

This follows Britain’s Metropolitan Police also launching a formal investigation into the alleged Covid lockdown law-breaking.

Commissioner Dick says officers are examining information that has been provided by the Cabinet Office investigation team.

A spokesperson for the PM says the British leader will cooperate with the inquiry.

Johnson is under immense pressure from both across the floor and from within his own party and as the report into the matter nears completion, the UK is left waiting, with Boris Johnson’s political future hanging in the balance.
