He’s just claimed that people should stick to the rules that were set
Well, apart from covid regulations & agreements with other countries….

Nadhim Zahawi is one of a few that hasn’t publicly supported Boris?

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion
NEW: One minister who saw @BorisJohnson after the resignations of @RishiSunak and @sajidjavid tells me: Boris does not look like a PM about to relinquish the seals of office. He is bullish - Nicholas Watt, Political Editor BBC Newsnight.
Johnson will be one of those who won’t leave until he’s dragged kicking and screaming.

Myself and my wife said the same thing when we heard about the events this evening, he'll not go unless forced.

how strange that you think every one got to follow rules but you are happy for Johnson to have no rules and can do whatever he likes

What has brought Mr Johnson to this position is the same character flaws that have dogged his entire career: his persistent lying and flagrant disregard for the codes and conventions that necessarily underpin public life…
… Mr Johnson’s serial dishonesty is utterly corrosive of effective government...
