even without sue gray's report, police believe the leader of the u.k. has broken the law.t has led this conservative mp to withdraw his support. >> i am very sorry to have to say this, but i no longer think he is worthy of the great office he holds. ros: we should emphasize the vast, vast majority of conservative mps want worse johnson to continue, one of the prime ministers problems is many times, boris johnson denied there was any rule blake -- any rule breaking a number 10. p.m. johnson: all guidance was followed completely. we followed the guidance throughout. all the guidelines were observed. ros: on thursday, this week, two days away, mps will vote whether to refer johnson to a full parliamentary investigation into whether he misled parliament. opposition says he has broken the ministerial code which reads ministers who knowingly mr. lead parliament are expected to offer their resignation. the scottish party says that is the reason boris johnson should go. >> the public knows the difference between the truth and lying. and they know the prime minister is only apologi

all the while, more evidence from sue gray is yet to be made public. ione wells, bbc news.est from our political correspondent jonathan blake. what will happen this afternoon? there will probably be a few hours to bait and then there will be an amendment on the motion, effectively holding out the prospect of an investigation at some point in the future by the privileges committee in parliament. but says if and when that happens, it should only be after the police investigation concludes and the senior civil servant sue gray has published the findings of a report in full. and that really neutralises to an extent, what was going to be quite a politically difficult day for boris johnson and a lot of his backbenchers who borisjohnson would not, because he is in india, a lot of his backbenchers would have had to vote against an investigation by the parliamentary privileges committee into whether he misled mps are not and some of them frankly, were not ready to do that. they are holding out for this process to run before they come to a judgment. jonathan, thank you. we can speak

all the while more evidence from sue gray is yet to be made public. ione wells, bbc news.ial visit to india about the partygate vote — but first he was asked about the situation in ukraine, and what he will be discussing in his talks with india's prime minister narendra modi. well, i have already raised ukraine, as you can imagine, with prime minister modi and actually, if you look at what the indians have said, they were very strong in their condemnation of the atrocities in bucha. as i think everybody understands, india and russia have historically very different relationship perhaps than russia and the uk have had over the last couple of decades. we have to reflect that reality but clearly, i will be talking about it to narendra modi. but what i will be focusing on today are the incredible opportunities to deepen this partnership. i don't think at any time in my political lifetime has the living bridge between the uk and india really been so strong. and just on this trip, we have got about £1 billion worth of investment coming from india into the uk. they are the second

instead, they have tweaked the vote to say any vote on this issue should be deferred until sue gray's is the top civil servant investigating downing street parties and other parties in government buildings last year. so if that passes which is likely because the government has a big majority and tory mps will be told to vote for this new plan, essentially what it will mean is we will not have a decision on whether the prime minister should be investigated on this until after both the police investigation has concluded but also sue gray's report has been published as well so essentially this is a deferring of a decision for potentially a couple more weeks, even months to come, until we have all the evidence out of the public sphere. the reason the government has done this is they were worried about a potential backlash from some of their own mps. some tory mps were planning to vote for labour�*s motion tomorrow, are you saying the prime minister should be referred for an investigation about whether he misled the house, other tory mps were not going to vote with the opposition but were

up with their own amendment, which then said, "ok, look, you can do it, but not until after the sue graythe met police investigation concludes." and the delay to the vote in order to decide whether it should be referred at all to the committee. i mean, ithink, alex, there were a lot of conservative mp who didn't fancy going into local elections, being accused by the opposition of blocking or preventing, or the word cover—up being used, and they didn't like that. labour made that quite clear, didn't they? "if you don't support us in this, we're going to suggest that you're not open to scrutiny, that you're stopping this being properly looked at," that it could be quite damaging to them personally. so yeah, the government put forward its amendment, which they thought would kind of placate the conservative mps that were worried about which way they were going to go on this vote. so we all thought that that was basically going to be kicked down the road a little bit, right? and then today happens. well, yeah, then there was a classic politics live episode, cos things tend to happen when you

and finally, sue gray, remember her, the civil servant looking into all of this?h as soon as the meta has finished its own investigation. sources close to that process have told me they think it will be detailed and it will be damaging. so, this story has gone on and on and on for several weeks now, i don't think it's done yet. mick i don't think it's done yet. nick eardley in downing _ i don't think it's done yet. nick eardley in downing street, thank you. for all the latest on the situation in ukraine, let's cross to my colleague clive myrie in the capital, kyiv. president biden says the evidence appears to suggest that russia is committing genocide here in ukraine. he warns it's becoming "clearer and clearer" that vladimir putin wants to "wipe out the idea of even being ukrainian". his comments come as there are growing signs russia could be on the brink of fully capturing the southern port city of mariupol, which has suffered a devastating six—week assault. the defence ministry in moscow says more than 1,000 ukrainian marines have surrendered in the area, alth

they are waiting to sue gray's reports to be published.and you can see people moving from camp to camp based on events. but i think my feeling is that last week, with the big apology that the prime minister did in front of the tv cameras at chequers, and with parliament being away, it felt that there whole party gate thing was being a bit contained. but then yesterday, you realise once parliament comes back and there are new claims and there are political incentives come in, actually partygate is not contained. it is going to be there for quite some time, and it is going to be pushing against that government attempt to try move on. attempt to try and move on. china has reported just under 20 thousand new coronavirus cases. the major steel city of tung—shun in eastern china, with a population of eight million, has followed shanghai in returning to a full covid lockdown. shanghai itself has reported covid—i9 deaths for three days in a row. these are the first officially acknowledged deaths since 2020 but china has been accused of downplaying

we know that the civil servant sue gray looked at 16 different events here and elsewhere.es, perhaps 50 or more already, relating to three. now the reports that they have begun issuing fines for one more event, that garden party in downing street on the 20th of may, as you say. downing street here say the prime minister has not had a fine in relation to that. we don't know if he will in the future. what we do know is that he admitted to the house of commons that he was at that event and he was there for 25 minutes, and the rules at the time said you could only be outside your home for an essential work reason and he said he thought it was "a work event", but we will wait to see. the issue this week, is the woes this is bringing him and he tried in parliament to get his mps to vote to delay parliament deciding to hold its own inquiry. it seems many of them were not happy about being forced to go on the record and do that, so he backed down and that inquiry is now going ahead. this all leaves uncertainty for him and uncertainty, too, about how solid the backing is amongst hi

yes, that new, third inquiry into all of this, we have the internal sue gray civil service one, thate their inquiries. then now, we will have this parliamentary one and that, in many ways, is perhaps one that might provide the mostjeopardy for borisjohnson because, ultimately, these things will be decided in the political arena and that will be an investigation by that parliamentary committee into whether he misled or lied to parliament when he made his statements about these gatherings and events, when he said no rules were broken, the guidelines were followed. that, though, could be weeks or months away. the israeli authorities say they'll close the only border crossing from the gaza strip on sunday, in response to a series of rockets fired into israeli territory. closing the erez border crossing would affect thousands of palestinians who work in israeli territory. it is not clear when it'll be re—opened. palestinian militants in gaza fired two rockets at israel on friday at the end of another day of clashes at the al aqsa mosque compound in jerusalem. supermarkets across the uk, a

penalty notices and of course parliament and the public are still waiting for the final version of the sue gray, so there is the potential that this could run and run for quite some time. and i suppose a fundamental point of discussion here is whether the prime minister lied to parliament and that is what caroline lucas is trying to get at. and other mps are calling for a more serious investigation to determine whether the prime minister lied to fellow mps and to the house, and that is what underlies all of this, isn't it? it is, absolutely. the prime minister, all ministers, are covered by the ministerial code and that is very clear that if any minister inadvertently misleads parliament, they must seek to correct the record as soon as possible, but if any minister knowingly misleads parliament, then they would be expected to offer their resignation. ultimately, what this will all come down to next week and perhaps in the week to come is the views of mps in the house of commons, because any vote on whether the prime minister perhaps should be held in contempt, any vote to decide whether in thei
