Johnson apologizes for the party gate, the opposition to the attack calls for resignation

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson apologized in Parliament for the so-called 'party gate'

linked to a meeting held in Downing Street garden in May 2020 when the UK was still in lockdown.

He insisted that the rules would not be "technically violated", but he acknowledged the country's anger.

According to the latest revelations, one of the meetings organized in the garden of his official residence in 2020 was in violation of the restrictions of the anti-Covid lockdown then in force. Organized on May 20 by the head of its secretariat, Martin Reynolds: with a hundred invitations and to which the British Conservative Prime Minister appears to have participated in person alongside about forty officials who actually intervened and First Lady Carrie. 

Labor Opposition Leader Keir Starmer challenged Conservative Prime Minister Boris Johnson in Parliament to step down

after admitting responsibility over the so-called party gate.

Starmer called Johnson's apology "worthless", accusing him of lying to the House and the British people, unleashing their fury.

Johnson - clearly in trouble - replied by saying he was taking responsibility, but denied that the event was a party and hid behind the results of an internal investigation.
