Former UK prime minister Boris Johnson has made no secret of his hopes for a dramatic political comeback. But the enduring "partygate" scandal threatens that, as graphic new revelations emerge.
Staff shredded documents when civil service and police investigations loomed, and some had sex at one riotous party the night before Prince Philip’s funeral, according to aides interviewed for an ITV podcast. The “privileges” committee is looking into whether he lied to the Commons, starting in December 2021 after one damning video emerged, when he told MPs that “the rules were followed at all times”.
Sunak’s spokesman said on Thursday: “At all times staff were given clear guidance to retain any relevant information and cooperate with the investigation.”After his fellow Conservative MPs tired of the non-stop scandal and forced him to resign, Johnson tried to stage a sensational return in October when Liz Truss was herself forced out of Number 10.
