so bofis journalist rebecca rees.there today, published his defence ahead of tomorrow's kangaroo court privileges committee hearing. but she sunak his chancellor, who spent months trying to depose him , has trying to depose him, has confirmed he will refuse to intervene in the westminster witch hunt he surely hopes will secure his anti—democratic premiership by hammering the final nail into jojo's political coffin . watch. are you prepared coffin. watch. are you prepared to give your conservative mp a free vote on that? to let them vote according to their own wishes? you not going to tell them how to vote? yes. i mean, that's generally the rule of thumb these things. these thumb with these things. these will his. yes these are will be his. yes these are matters for parliament and the house pieces individual house and pieces individual rather than for government. so is process that is the general process that we would witch hunt. would follow. it's a witch hunt. do agree that that's do you agree that that's ultimately

bofis look at the stormont brake.as indeed, and that's a bit of a pain in the side for rishi sunak . rishi sunak was rishi sunak. rishi sunak was hoping that concentration in westminster would be on the windsor framework, which he is very proud of securing last month. but of course all the attention is on boris johnson . attention is on boris johnson. now what's going to happen with this stormont brake legislation, vote will be very interesting indeed. vote will be very interesting indeed . the dup has already said indeed. the dup has already said that it's going to vote against it en masse, but the erg , that it en masse, but the erg, that hard line conservative european research group who met yesterday is sort of sparked in brexiteers, if you like. they couldn't come to a decision as a group on which way they would vote. now to me that suggests that they could be split. they could be some of them who are keen to support it and some who aren't. but the fact that boris johnson has come out and said that he doesn't bel

bofis a bit like a legal process.but being inspected . these seven mps inspected. these seven mps sitting in a horse shoe opposite him. he'll flanked by his legal team , not least lord pannick is team, not least lord pannick is a crossbench peer in the house of kings council, no less. yeah, yeah. of kings council, no less. yeah, yeah . who has been advising yeah. who has been advising bofis yeah. who has been advising boris johnson this? and of course committee can then recommend a sanction if it decrees that boris johnson has, in its view, recklessly misled parliament. get yeah because that's the key. key phrase or two two words isn't it is knowingly , recklessly knowingly, recklessly misleading. absolutely. and traditional way in which the privileges deals with situations like because this is not the first time that a minister. however senior or junior, has been accused misleading the house. the question that usually is asked by the privileges committee is did they knowingly the house where they were acting the house

the top story on gb news bofis you.he top story on gb news boris johnson has been telling the privileges committee today that hand on heart he did not lie to mps over partygate the former prime minister says although he takes full responsibility for the gatherings in downing street dunng gatherings in downing street during his statements in the house of commons were all made in faith. he went to on criticise the committee of bias in its investigation and particular the chair, harriet harman of being prejudicial. he insisted he attended parties at number 10 to motivate really must insist on this point. people who say that we were partying in lockdown simply do not know what they are talking about. not know what they are talking about . people who say that that about. people who say that that event was a purely social gathering are quite wrong . my gathering are quite wrong. my purpose. there was to thank staff to motivate them in what had been a very difficult time . had been a very difficult time. and what was also a ve

he was never defending bofis one.sonal conduct . what is that he never . what i mean is that he never in many ways pretended to be what he wasn't, whereas know if you had politician who was you had a politician who was very and there being very pious and there was being caught rules, the caught breaking the rules, the british very british public are very unforgiving. but boris basically wandered around saying, a, i'm the scandal and this is the sort of scandal and this is he damaged just by he terminally damaged just by the fact he's before this. the very fact he's before this. i terms i don't think i mean, in terms i don't think he's going prime minister or he's going be prime minister or tory know tory leader again and know i basically his aim is to is to play basically his aim is to is to play the victim cultivate the myth. boris so if we lose if the tories wins election tories wins the next election and like, well i and he could be like, well i would have won it and then make a money in the private a lot of money

bofis at nine. faced a grilling by the privileges committee this week to determine whether he or intentionally misled parliament over politics. johnson denies wrongdoing , over politics. johnson denies wrongdoing, and our very own jacob rees—mogg has suggested the animus against boris be politically motivated and that the liberal media and political classes still haven't given him a break and forgiven him over brexit. i spoke with broadcaster and historian david starkey about this story as , what he had about this story as, what he had to say. why do you think this term recklessly was introduced? it seems possible he could have recklessly run , intentionally recklessly run, intentionally misled them , and that surely misled them, and that surely this isn't as bad as lying, which would require intention. i'm afraid i am very firmly. jacob rees—mogg side on this. i think that the entire proceedings of the committee i wouldn't call them a kangaroo court , but they are a political court, but they are a

bofis and you've now looked made.ss culpable than wrongly, look less culpable than he was. that's not good politics. that look, the only person responsible for boris johnson's downfall is boris johnson's downfall is boris johnson . he was the one breaking johnson. he was the one breaking the rules while at the same time putting this country into lockdown . you know, as we seen lockdown. you know, as we seen on the news, to be on your own, on the news, to be on your own, on the news, to be on your own, on the newspaper you worked for. we've seen the scale of what was going on behind the scenes. it's why we need a proper public inquiry. by the way, all of those messages need to be passed to the inquiry, not needs to the public inquiry, not needs to the public inquiry, not needs to be all needs to be looked up properly of that inquiry. rishi sunak's on with that sunak's got to get on with that inquiry. but at the end of the day, it was boris johnson breaking the rules. seen breaking the rules. we've seen the the evidence

the other defence that bofis mean?hnson is resting on is that the committee itself is biased. so harry harman, who's chairing the committee, the labour mother of the house, tweeted last year saying boris johnson knowingly lie , while johnson knowingly lie, while bofis johnson knowingly lie, while boris johnson's defence team say that proves that she'd already prejudged outcome of this inquiry before it even went into stage and. the final defence of bofis stage and. the final defence of boris johnson's team resting on is that when boris said to the house that he wasn't aware of any parties he was acting on the advice of his officials . so he advice of his officials. so he didn't knowingly mislead because was only doing what his officials had told him to do. now, why ? sources are now saying now, why? sources are now saying that he he was told he was given correct advice by his officials , but he then went off script in parliament. so it's not clear whether that particular piece of his defence is going to hold. it'll be re

bofis mps while speaking yesterday.ingly, recklessly misled mps about lockdown in downing knowingly and recklessly this language matters because that's the allegation and if that's what he's of as it were then he has broken one of the absolutely crucial rules of parliament. absolutely. so the question mark isn't over whether he misled parliament. it seems quite clear that he did. it's over whether he deliberately misled . forgive he deliberately misled. forgive me for butting in, nor is it remotely about whether he had a glass of wine in the cabinet room or in his private apartment. no, it's whether he made out to that. he was sticking to the rules when he wasn't. and it all comes down to, i mean, borisjohnson's to, i mean, boris johnson's defence, but she's quite defence, but she's made quite clear essentially he was clear is essentially that he was so scatty he didn't really that he breaking the lockdown he was breaking the lockdown rules but not the best defence of his aides never told him of and his aides never told

so bofis parliament. yes, absolutely., boris johnson would argue that, yes, it might be up to the committee set the terms of reference, but all of the precedent for this kind of committee is to decide whether an mp likes the house. now we know that lying the house intentionally misleading the house is a swinging offence and it sounds, but at least johnson believes as though the committee doesn't have evidence that he intentionally misled the house. bofis intentionally misled the house. boris johnson's interpretation of that is they would need evidence to show he had been told he'd misled the house. and then he stood up and said that he wasn't sure about the rules . he wasn't sure about the rules. he he didn't know he didn't mean he didn't know that there were parties going on. so it all hinges on whether committee is able to use that word in quite a loose context and whether it was boris johnson is if they believe that any normal person would have seen that there was a party taking place . if that can be referred place. if

bofis what else are people saying? boris give. valerie says give. bofis boris give.the red card along with gary lineker. wendy says boris is in its capital. she means business. a boris is a gentleman and he's trustworthy . mike says and he's trustworthy. mike says he's thoroughly principled and honourable . so david says, lord honourable. so david says, lord moylan is not. well, that's better. better than not, graham lord moylan . right. boris lord moylan. right. boris johnson is principled , educated johnson is principled, educated and a gentle man. and ellie made and a gentle man. and ellie made a comment that could possibly got me sued and i managed to stop myself there. so impressed with myself. martha says he's absolutely entitled to earn all of his money. it's just a socialist on your panel. hey, it's boris. and quite frankly, it's boris. and quite frankly, it's because they're all scared of him. well, speaking about earning money, us president joe biden and a controversial tax proposal to congress get this everyone he wants to put a levy of 25% on america beca

relationships between bofis because.d. boris johnson has them of fishing on his evidence for 24 hours. he submitted dossier yesterday. it wasn't published noon today. they say that why they sanction it was because it was riddled with typos and errors and they had to correct of those before it was published. so you can see the sense of how bad this relationship has got. but yeah, i we can prepare for fireworks. prepare for fireworks. absolutely utterly. and keep yourselves locked into this very people where we will be bringing up life the whole hearing. look, olivia, thank you very much olivia, thank you very much olivia utley gb news this political reporter. been political reporter. i've been asking throughout the show. bofis do asking throughout the show. boris do you think he's boris johnson. do you think he's a hero a villain? should the a hero or a villain? should the tories what? tories do. what? labour struggled to which is they struggled to do, which is they suffered from long for a while. didn't the labour party t

i mean, bofis in to this committee.l the you don't like him very much . you don't like him very much. what we will be doing is dealing with the northern ireland protocol, which is what thought you might be talking about, because think the because i do not think the government's right government's got agreement right . it's a fundamental constitution final issue. i don't think we're being offered enough time or enough information to debate it properly on wednesday. and so i and my colleagues will be mainly preoccupied with the northern ireland protocol, pointing out that the so—called stormont brake is very unlikely to be used and is not sufficient reassurance for all the laws that the eu intends to keep upon part of the united and for the remaining restrictions that they wish to impose on trade between gb and northern. that shortly is what matters. on wednesday . i what matters. on wednesday. i agree and it's pity that i haven't got an opportunity to talk to you about it. now, mr. redwood , but perhaps you will redwood,

bofis discuss you, one last question.ion against the windsor framework 22 mps. three was a mistake strategically wasn't hit by bofis strategically wasn't hit by boris was not a great brexit result and we got i think it was because i look it's not a great deal but it's a better deal than we had before. and don't forget, when you're dealing with northern ireland, you've got sort of civil war, one extreme or a trade war with europe at the other and wherever you strike it in between, you're in pretty good territory. this was pretty good territory. this was pretty good territory and i think this was you should view a biased side when. he got his own brexit deal. if recall. do you think he'd have accepted the windsor framework deal when he was minister ? i think he was prime minister? i think he would have done. but look, you know, europe is all missed know, europe is all about missed opportunities , by the opportunities by europe, by the way, if they agreed way, because if they had agreed this and by the way , this and this, by

bofis has. i agree with you that.oris started off to quite a robust beginning laid his robust beginning and laid his evidence and he went on the attack very quickly. we knew that there were going to be fireworks. no fireworks, very quickly, because he went in and accused harman, accused harriet harman, the chair of committee of bias, chair of the committee of bias, for tweets she did last for tweets that she did last yean for tweets that she did last year, saying he knowingly lied. he that she had already he suggests that she had already prejudged the of this committee before the committee sat down for the first time. he also rather cleverly lumped himself in with the civil servants who were at the events that he was at suggesting that he is supposed to have lied . then supposed to have lied. then surely they're supposed to have lied to, yet they're not lied to, and yet they're not being hauled in select being hauled in the select committee is suggesting that it's fair that he is , but he it's fair that he is, but he

i know that bofis that commentary.ill has a his arguments make a strong case to make and he will make that case to the committee i know you've got a very wide reaching reach brief at the cabinet office that you've been involved in some of the coronation planning. have you received your invitation and how many and do we think are going to attend the ceremony on may the sixth ? well i think the may the sixth? well i think the convention is, which i think will be followed, again, that cabinet ministers do attend the coronation. so i would hope to be and i think i have been ianedin be and i think i have been invited in that capacity as a cabinet minister. invited in that capacity as a cabinet minister . sadly, there cabinet minister. sadly, there won't be as many seats available in westminster abbey as previously. so it won't be the case that a large number of either members of parliament or members of that will both names of parliament. but not in the commons or members of the house of lords will be attending . of lords w

okay one, if bofis i'll ask you first.zle children , muzzle children just children, muzzle children just to appease nicola sturgeon . well to appease nicola sturgeon. well children would use this political footballs throughout this . when you from very early this. when you from very early on the children were posed minimal risk by the by covid 19. minimal risk by the by covid19. and in any sane world would have been left to and encouraged to get on with the normal lives . get on with the normal lives. you're on an by by masks and school closures and the rest of the restrictions that were imposed upon the lives. but it suhed imposed upon the lives. but it suited the politician was to use you know, to use them for effect and in the way that you're just describing and this in this particular instance is with a political football between, you know, scotland north of the border , and england to the south border, and england to the south of the border. but the point is the point is, patrick, this this is not where we should be w

bofis course, has got very large.hnson, when he was leading the government, wanted to cut the civil service by £91,000, £91,000, no, much more than. £91,000, £91,000, no, much more than . that 91,000 individuals, than. that 91,000 individuals, but unfortunately, when the current prime minister took office, that plan went under , office, that plan went under, that's a real problem because cutting 91,000 civil servants does not only save their wages and the costs of employing them , but it also stops them thinking up lots of rules that may get in the way of your life and may cost more money as they put burdens onto economy. you may be able to get efficient services delivered with fewer people, and that should be the aim because yesterday the civil service was a not such a civil way engaged in collective inaction . and i just wonder if inaction. and i just wonder if anyone notice it. probably not. people may have noticed the junior doctors or indeed the teachers absence , and certainly teachers absence, and certainly peo

and poor bofis aggressive and so on. boris who always comes across with an air of vulnerability, which is one of the reasons, i think, in my view, people like him in the public, like him as he always looks a little bit sort of like you want to give him a hand, you he sort him a hand, you know, he sort and that . you, you, you that and all that. you, you, you that i mean . yeah, no, he's made i mean. yeah, no, he's made a million. as neil puts speeches in the senate that you're not sorry for him. okay and so on. and the more authentic he is, the more people will like him . the more people will like him. so shouldn't be too so he shouldn't be too artificial . so he shouldn't be too artificial. but he so he shouldn't be too artificial . but he do teach. artificial. but he can do teach. he to be a journalist like he used to be a journalist like you and he and you can make he makes notes. he masters stuff. he knows what to say. but i do think the mps would well blame up. we'll see at the end of it if it's a beauty contest i'd

now bofis for both sides as well.the eu, rishi sunak's deal with the eu, saying take saying it doesn't take back control brussels. the control from brussels. the former prime minister told the global soft power summit in london that he will find it very difficult to vote for the windsor framework. struck windsor framework. deal struck by still by rishi sunak because it still means eu laws . means having to follow eu laws. so joining us now for more on this is political editor of huffington post uk kevin schofield . good morning, kevin. schofield. good morning, kevin. so what did you think of boris johnson's intervention there criticising rishi sunak's deal? helpful or . criticising rishi sunak's deal? helpful or. not a not particularly helpful, but i think should work on the assumption that anything that bofis assumption that anything that boris johnson says in public is designed to be unhelpful . rishi designed to be unhelpful. rishi sunak he's not your biggest fan . he would dearly love to be 5 minutes to again. he r

bofis stephen, 1 don't agree with you. boris was not brought down by sue gray. gray. he was bought brought down support for chris down by his support for chris pincher name, pinch nature pincher by name, pinch by nature . but that wouldn't have mattered without sue gray mattered without the sue gray report. matthew 1 agree with matthew. sue gray is about as impartial as jacob was in the brexit referendum and then fell. jacob it's a disgrace that grey will be allowed to take a job with labour. this must be against impartiality , ethics and against impartiality, ethics and i think phil is spot on. the manchester arena bombing inquiry released its third and final report today , concluding that report today, concluding that intelligence services missed a significant opportunity to stop the bombing. the attacker , the bombing. the attacker, salman abedi, had been on our security services radar for several years. the director general of m15, ken mccullum, expressed his profound sorrow over the report's findings. the report, however , was published report, however, was

and it's i'm bofis that question.e said the other day that he couldn't see himself having a big in politics. again, big role in politics. again, i think little bit modest think that's a little bit modest for i there's always for him. i think there's always a boris johnson a place for boris johnson because such a big because he's such a big character and he is an character there and he is an effective communicator and he gave a speech that the to gave a speech that the day to talk about deal, just talk about the brexit deal, just leaving door ajar should the leaving the door ajar should the she reaches the next deal , she reaches the next deal, should it not be as welcome as what i think it had been early on this week? so he's left the door slightly. only if he wants to come back. but i think he's very much enjoying his career. coming outside of frontline politics, what he's doing is in effect criticising sue gray and amongst other senior tories who've said, well, this casts doubt on the whole sue gray inquiry. the sue
