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

Published

on

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.

SpaceX plans a $25 billion IPO in 2026, potentially valuing the company at over $1 trillion.


Elon Musk’s SpaceX is preparing to raise over $25 billion through an initial public offering in 2026. The move could value the space exploration company at over $1 trillion, fueled by its Starlink internet network and Starship rocket programme.

The IPO discussions are underway with major banks, targeting a launch around June or July. This comes as the IPO market experiences a revival after a three-year slowdown, attracting attention from both institutional and retail investors.

SpaceX is currently the second most-valuable private startup after OpenAI. While investors are excited, some remain cautious about Musk’s ability to manage multiple high-profile companies simultaneously.

Trump admin proposes tourists disclose social media profiles for security under visa waiver program, impacting 42 countries.


The Trump administration has proposed new rules requiring tourists visiting the United States under the visa waiver program to disclose their social media profiles. This applies to citizens from countries including Australia, the UK, and France, who would need to provide five years of social media history.

The requirement specifically targets travelers using the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), which covers 42 countries. US Customs and Border Protection says the move is necessary to enhance national security.

Public comments on the proposal will be open for 60 days, and full implementation could take several months. It’s still unclear whether private messages would be included or if only public profiles are required.
