LONDON – IN Conservative Party He gave signals on Sunday, 16, that the British Prime Minister, Boris JohnsonHe must fight to stay in office. He has come under pressure to resign due to festivities held at Government House during the pandemic.
Oliver Dowden, the party’s leader, confirmed Johnson was willing to veto the festivities. “He is sorry and he regrets what happened,” Dowden said in an interview with the BBC. “But most importantly, he is determined to ensure that this does not happen again.”
From the lockdown announced by Johnson on March 23, 2020 until April last year, there were at least 14 parties in Downing Street, the seat of the British government, in the heart of London. Someone fell on the eve of a funeral Philip’s principle, Husband Queen Elizabeth II – The Prime Minister immediately apologized to the royal family.
And the British press reported last week, that one of the parties, in May 2020, got out of control and entered the early hours of the morning in the gardens of the official headquarters. One guest, who was a little more excited, broke the balance by Wilf Johnson, the prime minister’s one-year-old son. Reports from some of the beneficiaries ensure that a special refrigerator has been installed in the press room to store bottles of wine.
The prime minister’s future now depends on the outcome of the investigation into Sue Gray, a senior cabinet official responsible for overseeing government ethics. She is 64 years old, and has a reputation for being independent and impeccable fame. Johnson said any decision would be made only after Gray’s findings were presented.
But some Conservative MPs have already threatened to ditch the prime minister if he does not take responsibility for the parties. Other lawmakers say the scandal has grown to such an extent that Gray is no longer in a position to reach a conclusion. When the investigation began, it was an event and we didn’t know the Prime Minister was involved. “Bob Kerslake, former chief of the Civil Service said,” said Bob Kerslake, former chief of the Civil Service.
Others, such as Jonathan Powell, former Labor chief of staff Tony Blair, indicates a conflict of interest: Gray cannot be a civil servant, investigative rapporteur can point to a crime by the prime minister, his boss – the investigation, he said, must be concluded by a special commission.
For now, Johnson appears to have stopped the scramble within his own party. On Saturday, Tim Lawton became the sixth Conservative MP to publicly call for the prime minister’s resignation, saying his reputation had been “mortally damaged” – however 54 defections from the government were required. A bench majority of 360 parliamentarians has yet to emerge. / Reuters, Associated Press and Agence France-Presse
