Today (20.03.2023) afternoon, the arguments of the former British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, are expected to be published regarding the so-called corona parties that took place in Downing Street during the coronavirus pandemic and while the country was in… lockdown.
In December 2021, the former British prime minister claimed in parliament that he was “ignorant that these gatherings violated the rules” imposed by his government. Boris Johnson has been referred to a seven-member parliamentary committee to investigate whether or not he lied about the corona party.
The dossier of his arguments, with the evidence, reaches 50 pages. He will present all this to the committee the day after tomorrow, Wednesday (22.03.2023), which will judge whether Boris Johnson tried to “mislead” Parliament. If he is found guilty, his case will be referred to the plenary session of the House of Commons which will decide on his sentence.
If the parliament imposes a sentence of ten or more days of suspension from his parliamentary duties, then a by-election for his parliamentary seat will be called.
His cross-town group believes that Boris Johnson will be vindicated, arguing that the Downing Street rallies took place during a working day and that the former prime minister acted in “good faith”.
