(ANSA) - LONDON, APRIL 21 - The British House of Commons unanimously approved the motion promoted by the Labor opposition for the launch of a parliamentary inquiry into the suspicions Prime Minister Boris Johnson may have "misled" the classroom in his statements on 'Partygate': the scandal on the rediscoveries organized between 2020 and 2021 in Downing Street in violation of the anti Covid restrictions then in force.
The motion passed after the government withdrew an amendment for the postponement, leaving the majority free to say yes.
The investigation will be entrusted to the Commission on Standards and Privileges, composed of 4 Tory and 3 opposition deputies.
