is clinging on to his post. after a london police launched an investigation into multiple gatherings at his residence, that allegedly breached colbert 19 lockdown restrictions. findings of a highly anticipated internal inquiry could be published within hours. johnson maintains that no rules were broken, but pressure over the party gave scandal. as growing by the deck, buddhist johnson is under fire again for attending his own both their party at downing street in june 2020 london's metropolitan police have now launched an inquiry into a series of possible locked on breeches and borders. johnson's office and residents enjoy well cook permits, decision to conduct his own investigation. but as i believe this will help to give the public with clarity it needs and helped to draw a line under matters at the time. quoted restrictions did not allow more than 2 people to meet indoors. and a series of leaks suggest that

a string of illegal social gatherings took place at downing street. this particular one was a surprise thrown by his wife and attended by several others. what we know is the 30 people gathered that his wife was there and that the interior designer was there, as well as if it was my birthday. ah, and my wife at an interior designer rock trumpet work. i. there was christy scott birthday cake and a celebration. i appreciate the rules label profit as the investigation, luna like calls for johnson to resign or increasing across the political spectrum. i think the public it might be molly himself. i think public opinion has already concluded, but he broke the rules that he made and that he hasn't told the truth about it. i mean, he hasn't got the authority to lead the country when we're in the middle of huge

party decide that they don't have enough confidence in him. now, of course, the longer this drags along the longer this is the more damaging this is for the party. many themes to be waiting for the outcome of the inquiry this su great inquiry before deciding on the prime minister's future. if that is indeed released, we could see perhaps some m p 's making a decision on the prime minister's future. charlotte chelsea pill in london reporting their head of multilateral talks due to kick off in paris. on wednesday, the leaders of germany and france met and berlin to coordinate their response to tensions between russia and ukraine. the 2 committed to doing everything possible to resolve the situation through diplomacy, but they also renewed warnings to moscow that an attack on ukraine would come at a higher price. several western nations have meanwhile, put troops on alert and stepped up arms deliveries to ukraine.
