UK’s Johnson faces renewed pressure over ‘Partygate’ photos
Al Jazeera, 26 May 2022
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson is facing renewed accusations of lying after photos emerged of him drinking at a Downing Street party during a coronavirus pandemic lockdown in 2020.
The revelations come as Sue Gray, a senior civil servant, was expected to publish her long-awaited full report into a series of rule-breaking parties dubbed by media as the “Partygate”, despite claims that Johnson was trying to have it dropped.
