British political commentators are divided between those who see Boris Johnson’s resignation as a House of Commons MP on Friday signaling the end of his political career and those who predict his return with speculation about how and when. While he returns to the front pages of the media, the former prime minister is on vacation in Africa, according to the Daily Telegraph.
Those who believe that it is his last act underline the absurd reason for his resignation. According to his public statement, he is the victim of a witch hunt, a fraudulent trial by the House of Commons committee that has investigated his conduct when he was accused of lying about his participation in illegal meetings and parties, according to the laws of the Government during the pandemic.
The committee’s letter to Johnson that prompted his angry resignation reportedly warned him that they were going to propose a penalty of at least ten days’ suspension as a member of the Commons, for lying when refusing to attend illegal parties.
