Partygate pictures: Boris Johnson has taken the British people for fools

Responding to images being released of Boris Johnson drinking at a party in Downing Street during Covid restrictions, Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper MP said: “People will rightly be furious to see pictures of Johnson drinking at what is an obvious party, when he repeatedly told us that the rules were followed at all times. “These photos show Boris Johnson has taken the British people for fools. While the public made huge sacrifices, he partied in Number 10. “It’s becoming clearer than ever that Boris Johnson lied to the British people and to Parliament. Conservative MPs must do their duty and sack this law-breaking Prime Minister. Every day he remains in office will do more damage to public trust and to our democracy."
